IIT Patna Research Assistant (RA) Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for fresh B.Tech Civil Engineering graduates with a strong academic record (minimum 70% marks or 7.5 CPI) who are enthusiastic about gaining practical research experience in a time-bound project. Candidates possessing a valid GATE score or a history of research publications in SCI/Scopus journals will find themselves particularly well-suited for this opportunity, demonstrating a strong aptitude for research.

Individuals aspiring for permanent government employment or long-term career stability should not consider this position, as it is a temporary, six-month contractual research assignment. Furthermore, those who do not meet the specified academic qualifications in Civil Engineering or are above the age of 28 (without applicable government age relaxations) will not be eligible to apply.

Working as a Research Assistant at IIT Patna, a premier institution of national importance, offers exceptional exposure to cutting-edge research within the Civil Engineering domain. Although the assignment is temporary, it provides invaluable experience crucial for those considering advanced studies (M.Tech/Ph.D.) or career paths in academic research and development, significantly enhancing their professional profile.
