Bagchi joined KSU in 2006 and was named interim chair of the Department of Economics, Finance and Quantitative Analysis in the Coles College of Business in 2020.

Since 2010, Bagchi has focused his research on security issues. In 2019, he earned

Kennesaw State’s Office of Research is highlighting the research of department chairs and directors during the current
