Pulak Sengupta (born 1963) is an Indian petrologist and a professor and head of the Department of Geological Sciences of Jadavpur University.[1][2] He is known for his studies on grain-scale reaction mechanism and ultra-high temperature regional scale metamorphism[3] and his studies have been documented in several peer-reviewed articles;[4][note 1] ResearchGate and Google Scholar, online repositories of scientific articles, have listed 31[5] and 60 of them respectively.[6] Besides, he has contributed chapters to many books published by others.[7][8][9] He has also mentored doctoral scholars in their studies.[10][note 2]

Sengupta, born on 5 December 1963 in the Indian state of West Bengal did his master's studies at Jadavpur University and subsequently secured a PhD from the same institution before joining his alma mater as a member of faculty.[11] He is an elected fellow of Indian Academy of Sciences,[12] and the Indian National Science Academy.[13] The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, the apex agency of the Government of India for scientific research, awarded him the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology, one of the highest Indian science awards for his contributions to Earth, Atmosphere, Ocean and Planetary Sciences in 2006.[14]
