IIT Goa Senior Research Fellow Recruitment 2026 | 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly motivated electrical engineering graduates (B.Tech./B.E. with 2 years experience or M.Tech./M.E.) holding a valid GATE score, who possess a strong interest in research, particularly in ocean wave energy conversion and electrical machines. It's an excellent opportunity for those aiming to pursue a Ph.D. in a cutting-edge research environment at a premier institution.

Candidates without a GATE score, lacking the specified engineering degrees, or the minimum 2 years of experience (for B.Tech./B.E. holders) should not apply. Individuals seeking a permanent, non-research-oriented, or purely academic faculty position may find this contractual research fellowship less suitable, though it offers a pathway to a Ph.D.

Working as a Senior Research Fellow at IIT Goa, a central government autonomous institution, offers significant prestige and exposure to high-level research. The project, sponsored by the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF), focuses on renewable energy, providing a strong foundation for an impactful career in R&D or academia. The opportunity to register for a Ph.D. further enhances long-term growth prospects.
