IIT Roorkee Junior Research Fellow (JRF) Recruitment 2026 - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly motivated Indian nationals with a strong academic background in Electrical or Electrical and Electronics Engineering, particularly those specializing in power electronics. Candidates aspiring to pursue a Ph.D. from IIT Roorkee, who have qualified a national-level test (GATE/CEED/JEST/UGC-NET/CSIR-NET), will find this a valuable opportunity for research and doctoral studies. Individuals with experience in hardware development of GaN-based power converters are particularly encouraged.

Individuals who do not meet the specified educational qualifications (4-year Bachelor's or Master's in relevant engineering disciplines) and the national-level test qualification (unless exempt) should not apply. Those primarily seeking a permanent government position or immediate high-paying industry role may find the project-based, stipend-funded nature unsuitable. Candidates without a strong interest in research or a Ph.D. pursuit should also reconsider, as this project offers a direct path to doctoral studies.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at IIT Roorkee, a globally recognized institution of national importance, offers significant academic prestige and invaluable research experience. The opportunity to register for a Ph.D. within the institute provides a clear long-term growth path in academia and advanced research, enhancing future career prospects in both educational institutions and R&D sectors. This position is sponsored by IIT Bhilai Innovation and Technology Foundation, adding to its credibility.
