Sourov Ghose is currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Law Discipline, Khulna University, Bangladesh.
He has recently been awarded an LLM with Merit, specialising in Human Rights, from the Department of Legal Studies, Central European University (Vienna); where he was recipient of Internal Master’s Scholarship.
For his stint in Vienna, he was also awarded the prestigious University Grants Commission scholarship; allowing him to develop on his extensive research detailing migration, constitutional theory, democratic studies and political theory.
His teaching curricula and experiences include courses on Jurisprudence, Legal History of Bangladesh and Administrative Law. He is passionate about analysing the systemic roots of legal issues and mentoring the next generation of legal scholars. Precisely this interest is what led him towards specialising further in the international framework of Human Rights.
His graduate thesis focuses on the 'Post-Colonial Borders and Rights to Citizenship: A Human Rights Analysis of Statelessness in South Asia' detailing the crisis of identity across porous borders, and histories.
Outside of his legal scholarship, Sourov indulges in photography of the everyday life in Bangladesh (and Vienna), as well as the several travels of an academic. He is an avid reader of Bengali Literature and Music, and often documents his non-legal pursuits through the advent of these cultural subsets.

Sourov Ghose recently completed an LLM with Merit, specialising in Human Rights, from the Department of Legal Studies at Central European University (CEU), Vienna, Austria. During his studies, he was awarded the Internal Master's Scholarship by the University, and was further honoured with the prestigious University Grants Commission (UGC) scholarship, which enabled him to advance his extensive research on migration, constitutional theory, democratic studies, and political theory. His graduate thesis, titled "Post-Colonial Borders and Rights to Citizenship: A Human Rights Analysis of Statelessness in South Asia," examined the crisis of identity and statelessness across the porous borders and layered post-colonial histories of South Asia, situating these questions within a human rights framework.
Prior to his studies in Vienna, Sourov Ghose completed his LLM in International Law and LLB (Hons) from Jahangirnagar University. This academic foundation laid the groundwork for his subsequent specialisation in the international framework of human rights, reflecting his enduring interest in interrogating the systemic roots of legal issues and in mentoring the next generation of legal scholars.
