Chandrani Banerjee completed a master’s of science in applied mathematics from Texas Tech University in 2007. Her research area was in mathematical modeling of biological systems. She has taught a variety of courses in Algebra, Trigonometry, Analytical Geometry, Calculus, Business Calculus and Statistics as a Faculty at Texas Tech University and at University of Arizona. She has been teaching at ASU since 2012 including both in-person and online classes over a wide variety of courses, such as Enhanced Freshman Math, College Algebra, Brief Calculus, Math for Business Application and Calculus for Engineers. She likes to teach a culturally diverse body of students and enjoys interacting with students from different countries and communities. Apart from teaching she is active as a course-coordinator and serves in several course development committees and other University committees. She was awarded the "Outstanding Instruction and Service award" in 2018 and nominated for "Provost Teaching Award" in 2023.
