Education and career
[edit]Mitra was an undergraduate and master's student at the University of California, Berkeley, where she majored in electrical engineering & computer science, graduated in 1987, and received a master's degree in 1989.[4] After a year on the technical staff of Bellcore, she continued her graduate studies at Princeton University. She completed a Ph.D. in 1994 with the dissertation Adaptive Multi-user Receivers supervised by Vincent Poor.[4][5]
She became an assistant professor at Ohio State University in 1994, and was promoted to associate professor in 2000. She moved to the University of Southern California, and became full professor there in 2005. She was named as Dean's Professor in 2015 and as Gordon S. Marshall Professor in 2017. She has also held visiting positions at Rice University, Stanford University, Delft University of Technology, King's College London, and Imperial College London.[4]
In 2015, she became the founding editor-in-chief of IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological and Multi-Scale Communications.[4]
