Bikramjit Das is an Associate Professor and Associate Head of Pillar (Graduate Programme) at Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). He holds a PhD in Operations Research from Cornell University and prior to SUTD, was a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich’s RiskLab. His research focuses on extreme events analysis using applied probability, optimization, and statistical learning, with applications in finance, telecommunications, federated learning, and climate modeling. He teaches courses in Probability, Stochastic Modeling, and Analytics, and directs the Master of Science in Technology and Design (Data Science) program.
Education: PhD in Operations Research (Cornell University), B.Stat & M.Stat (Indian Statistical Institute).
Research emphasizes heavy-tailed distributions, risk contagion, and network modeling. Key areas include risk analysis in financial networks, robust optimization under uncertainty, and extreme value theory. His work bridges theoretical probability and real-world applications in data science and public policy.
Notable contributions include studies on asymptotic independence in high dimensions, robust newsvendor models, and inference techniques for heavy-tailed data. His articles explore topics ranging from federated learning under noise to climate modeling and congestion phenomena in sparse networks.
Collaborations include visiting positions at MIT and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. Active in academic leadership, he has contributed to technical reports on healthcare provider choice analysis and probabilistic flood risk assessments for nuclear power plants.
