Misra completed her primary education from Government Girls College in [[Faizabad]], [[Uttar Pradesh]]. She did her bachelors in [[mathematics]], [[physics]], and [[statistics]], from the [[University of Allahabad]], masters in physics from [[IIT Kanpur]] in 1983. Being inspired by the works of physicist [[Marie Curie]] and mathematician [[Srinivasa Ramanujan]], she pursued a doctorate at IIT Kanpur.
