After graduating from Science College, Calcutta in 1993, Professor Ghosh obtained his Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry in 1998 at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay for research on Fischer Carbene complexes of group 6 transition metals and chalcogen-stabilized diiron clusters. He then spent five years as a post-doctoral researcher at University of Notre Dame, where he developed a new synthetic route to hypo-electronic metallaborane clusters.
