IIT Indore Recruitment 2026: 4 Project Positions for JRF, SRF, and Project Engineer

This role is ideal for highly motivated research scholars and engineers holding B.Tech/B.E., Master's, or Ph.D. degrees in Electrical, Electronics & Communication, Optoelectronics, Microwave, or Computer Science Engineering. Candidates with a strong academic background, preferably a GATE score, and expertise in Communications Signal Processing, AI/ML, Network analysis, and quantum communication protocols will find this a stimulating opportunity. It's particularly suitable for those keen on cutting-edge research and development within the National Quantum Mission, with potential for Ph.D. enrollment.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as these are project-based, contractual positions. Candidates lacking foundational knowledge or specific expertise in quantum communication, advanced networking, or related engineering fields, as outlined in the essential qualifications, will not be suitable. Those unwilling to work on a performance-based, extendable contract for a defined project duration might find this role unsuitable.

Working at an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) carries significant academic prestige and provides access to state-of-the-art research facilities. This project, sponsored by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) under the National Quantum Mission, offers an exceptional opportunity to contribute to a nationally significant, high-impact area of future technology – Quantum Internet. The experience gained in such a specialized and advanced field at a premier institution like IIT Indore offers excellent long-term career growth prospects in both academia and advanced R&D sectors, potentially leading to further doctoral studies or specialized industry roles.
