Candidates interested in joining his research group, please email him with the subject "Prospective student for GRA position in BioGeM lab," and please attach your CV and all transcripts (unofficial copies).
Before joining SDSU, Banerjee worked as an assistant professor at the University of Delaware. He developed close relations with the faculty in coastal engineering and received grants related to coastal geotechnics. He was also a research scientist in Fort Worth, Texas, where he was part of various research projects funded by the National Science Foundation, Texas Department of Transportation, U.S. Department of Transportation-funded regional center Tran-SET, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and private agencies like TenCate Inc. During the same time, he had served as the associate director of the National Science Foundation Industry-University Co-operative Research Center on Composites in Civil Infrastructure at the University of Texas at Arlington.
Dr. Banerjee has an active professional engineer license in civil engineering. He is currently a member of the Transportation Research Board committee on Mechanics and Drainage of Saturated and Unsaturated Geomaterials (AKG40) and American Society of Civil Engineers Geo-Instituteâs Committee on Unsaturated Soils, where he is involved in creating an awareness of the importance of these fields in enhancing the resilience of critical and noncritical civil infrastructure in the nation. Banerjee has published several scholarly works, including 65 publications, four book chapters, 18 journal articles and 43 geotechnical special publications/conference proceedings, and has 1,054 citations from his research publications (as of Aug. 15, 2025). Banerjee is a reviewer for funded research proposals and top-tier journals in geotechnical engineering and civil engineering.
Currently, Banerjee is actively looking for funded doctoral students interested in working on advanced problems in biogeotechnics, extreme weather adaptive infrastructure, unsaturated soil mechanics, remote sensing, innovative soil stabilization techniques and the development of resilient infrastructure. He has multiple research projects in those areas of research. Interested candidates, please email with the subject "Prospective student for GRA position in BioGeM lab," and please attach your CV and transcripts.
