BITS Pilani, K K Birla Goa Campus JRF Recruitment 2026: 1 Junior Research Fellow Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly motivated postgraduate candidates in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Automobile, Production, or related engineering disciplines who have consistently achieved First Division marks at both graduate and postgraduate levels. It's particularly suitable for those aspiring to pursue a Ph.D. at a prestigious institution like BITS Pilani, as the fellowship can transition into Ph.D. support. Candidates with some research or work experience, while not mandatory, would be well-suited.

Candidates who do not hold a postgraduate degree in the specified engineering fields or lack a First Division standing in both their graduate and postgraduate studies should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or a job with a fixed, long-term tenure beyond the project's two-year duration may find this contractual research role unsuitable.

Working as a JRF at BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus, offers significant academic prestige and excellent opportunities for research and professional growth. BITS Pilani is a top-tier private institution, and this role provides a strong foundation for a career in research, potentially leading to a Ph.D. under the guidance of experienced principal investigators. The project, sponsored by IFB Industries Pvt. Ltd., also offers exposure to industry-relevant research in 'Design and Development of Washing Machine Components using Engineering Plastics,' enhancing long-term career prospects in both academia and industry.
