Quality leadership fuels quality education among students.

The College of Natural and Applied Sciences (CNAS) is excited to welcome Dr. Mukulika Ghosh, assistant professor of computer science, who will further the knowledge base available to students in the department.

Getting to know Dr. Ghosh

Mukulika Ghosh completed her bachelor’s of science in computer science at the National Institute of Technology in Durgapur, India.  

She then went on to receive her master’s of science and PhD from Texas A&M University. 

Ghosh engaged in postdoctoral research at the University of Maryland. 

Her research specialty

Ghosh studies robotics and computational geometry.  

With these focus areas, she creates algorithms for mapping objects’ motion and the geometric distance they cover.  

“Missouri State will offer my first experience with teaching these research areas in the classroom environment,” Ghosh said.  

Her inspiration for joining the MSU faculty

Ghosh has always had a passion for teaching at the university level.  

At MSU, she can fulfill this passion while also investing in quality research.
