Ghosh joins Al Jazeera International from ITV News where she was a correspondent. Her reporting for the channel from Thailand on the Asian tsunami was awarded the 2006 Alfred Dupont Columbia News Broadcasting Award.
Steve Clark, Al Jazerra International's director of news, said: "I am pleased to have Shiulie on board. She brings a wealth of experience in news reporting to the channel and is a great addition to the team.
Ghosh added: "I'm thrilled to be joining Al Jazeera International and to be part of this exciting television project, which will balance the information flow from South to North, bridging cultures for English speakers around the world."
Al Jazeera will launch its English-language news and current affairs service on November 15 and will feature 12 hours of rolling news, interviews, in-depth analysis and coverage every day.
Last month, Al Jazeera International poached BBC News presenter Darren Jordan.
Jordan, who has presented across all of the BBC's main news bulletins, leaves the BBC after eight years. He joined BBC Sport as a broadcast journalist in 1998, following a three-year stint as a sports broadcaster in South Africa.
