His research on pricing, reference prices, product valuation and product development has been published in top marketing journals and he serves on the editorial review boards of the Journal of Retailing, Pricing Strategy and Practice and International Journal of Business Innovation and Research. Mazumdar is the director of the Earl V. Snyder Center for Innovation Management in the Whitman School.
Mazumdar holds a degree in engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology and a M.B.A. and Ph.D. in business from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
