Joy Kuri has a B.E. in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering from Jadavpur University, Kolkata. After a year in the industry, he joined the M.E. program in the Department of Electrical Communication Engineering at the Indian Institute of Science. He went on to receive a PhD from the same department at IISc in 1995. Subsequently, he spent two years at Ecole Polytechnique, University of Montreal, Canada and one and a half years in INRS-Telecommunications, University of Quebec, Canada as a Research Associate.

Since 1999 he has been with the Centre for Electronics Design and Technology, Indian Institute of Science, where he is currently Associate Professor. His research and teaching interests are in the areas of modelling, analysis and control of communication networks and stochastic systems.
