Born on 23 November 1961 at [[Rampur, Uttar Pradesh|Rampur]] in the Indian state of [[Uttar Pradesh]], Sanjay Puri earned a research-based master's degree (MS), guided by K. P. Jain, for his thesis, ''Theoretical Investigations of Soliton Dynamics'' in 1982 from the [[Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi]].<ref name="Biographical Information - Sanjay Puri">{{Cite web |url=https://www.jnu.ac.in/Faculty/spuri/CV.pdf |title=Biographical Information - Sanjay Puri |date=2017-10-23 |website=Jawaharlal Nehru University |access-date=2017-10-23}}</ref> Moving to the US, he secured another master's degree in physics from the [[University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign]] in 1983 and continued there for his doctoral studies under guidance of Yoshitsugu Oono to secure a PhD in 1987, his thesis being ''Some Problems in the Dynamics of Spatially Extended Systems.''.<ref name="Biography on PB Works">{{Cite web |url=http://mohitpuri.pbworks.com/w/page/61211655/Dr%20Sanjay%20Puri%20Eminent%20Professor%20in%20Jawaharlal%20Nehru%20University%20%20New%20Delhi |title=Biography on PB Works |date=2017-10-23 |website=PB Works |access-date=2017-10-23}}</ref> Returning to India, Puri joined [[Jawaharlal Nehru University]] the same year as an assistant professor at the School of Physical Sciences, became an associate professor in 1993 and has been working there as a professor since 2001. During this period, he also had several stints abroad as a visiting professor at institutions such as [[Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz]], [[University of Manchester]], [[Cambridge University]] and [[Kyoto University]].<ref name="Profile on IIT Indore">{{Cite web |url=http://iiti.ac.in/Seminars/Abstract/Dr_Puri.pdf |title=Profile on IIT Indore |date=2017-10-23 |website=IIT Indore |access-date=2017-10-23}}</ref>
