Jr. Research Fellow

This role is ideally suited for highly qualified candidates holding both a 1st class B.Tech in Civil Engineering and a 1st class M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering. The ideal applicant will possess hands-on experience in laboratory and model-scale experiments, particularly those involving acoustic emissions for geotechnical failure prediction. Candidates who have qualified NET/GATE or are graduates from Centrally Funded Technical Institutes (CFTIs) with a CGPA exceeding 8.000 are especially well-positioned for this specialized research opportunity.

Candidates lacking a 1st class M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering or relevant practical experience in acoustic emission-based experimental work for geotechnical applications should not apply. Those seeking permanent government positions may also find this contractual, project-based role unsuitable. Applicants without the necessary academic qualifications (B.Tech in Civil Engineering and M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering) will not be considered.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at IIT Delhi, a premier institution for engineering and research in India, offers significant academic and research prestige. While a contractual project role, it provides valuable exposure to cutting-edge research, hands-on experimental work, and networking opportunities within a top-tier academic environment, which can greatly enhance future career prospects in research, academia, or specialized industry roles. The project's focus on slope instability monitoring is a critical area with real-world impact.
