IIT Delhi Recruitment 2026: Project Appointments for 3 Posts including Sr. Research Fellow

This role is most suitable for research professionals and laboratory support staff holding Master's degrees (M.Sc./M.Tech with NET/GATE) or a Graduation degree, coupled with specific experience in chemical research, particularly in aerogel synthesis or electrospinning for Sr. Research Fellows. Candidates should be seeking project-based contractual work at a premier institution and be proficient in laboratory operations, administrative tasks, and computer skills for the Project Attendant role. A strong academic background from a CFTI could also waive the NET/GATE requirement for SRF positions.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as these are project-specific contractual roles. Those without the specified academic qualifications or relevant practical research experience will not be considered. The low number of vacancies (3 posts) suggests high competition, making it unsuitable for applicants looking for less competitive opportunities.

Working at IIT Delhi, a globally renowned technical institute, offers significant prestige and exposure to cutting-edge research. Although these are contractual project appointments, the experience gained here is invaluable for career advancement in academia, R&D, or specialized industries. It provides an excellent platform for contributing to a significant research project funded by the Department of Defence Research & Development.
