Mitra was interviewed in 1998 for the oral history project and the taped interview containing his most important contributions is available in the IEEE’s Oral History Collection:  ([http://www.ieeeghn.org/wiki/index.php/Oral-History:Sanjit_Mitra]). He has been awarded the Golden Jubilee Medal of the IEEE Circuits & Systems Society in 1999 and the IEEE Third Millennium Medal in 2000. Recently another interesting interview with him has been published by the IEEE CAS magazine Q1 2022 ([https://ieee-cas.org/table-contents-ieee-circuits-and-systems-magazine-issue-1-first-quarter-2022]).\\
\\
Mitra was honored as a pioneer in signal processing at the 1998 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and  Signal Processing, and also as a pioneer in circuits, systems, and signal processing at the 2017 IEEE International Symposium on  Circuits & Systems. Two special sessions entitled “50 Years of Circuits, Systems, & Signals in Honor of Prof. Sanjit K. Mitra” were presented at the 2017 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits & Systems with speakers from China, Italy, India, Singapore and U.S.A.\\
