Professor Vijay received his B. Tech and M.S. in mechanical engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (Chennai, India) and the Florida
Institute of Technology (Melbourne, FL, USA). He received his Ph.D. from the Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, GA, USA), specializing in the
mathematical theory of nonlinear control systems. Professor Vijay’s archival contributions include over 200 journals, peer-reviewed conference articles,
and five books (published by Springer and Princeton University Press). His book on nonlinear dynamical systems is used as a textbook/reference in
advanced courses at top universities worldwide. His research interests are in stability theory and feedback control applications to complex systems,
including biomedical and financial systems. His teaching experience includes courses in mechanical and electrical engineering and mathematics.
Before joining GITAM, Professor Vijay was a faculty member at the Universities of Missouri and Tennessee, and Mahindra University. He also served as
Dean at Mahindra University and SRM, A.P. University. In addition, he was a principal scientist at TCS Research, heading the risk and finance group.
Professor Vijay is a recipient of US NSF CAREER and TCS Distinguished Researcher awards and is a senior member of IEEE.
