IIT Roorkee Project Scientist II Recruitment 2026 (01 Vacancy)

This role is ideal for highly specialized researchers holding both a Ph.D. and an M. Tech/M. E in relevant civil, environmental, or agricultural engineering disciplines, particularly those with expertise in hydrology, water resources management, and environmental engineering. Candidates with a strong publication record (minimum 2 QI publications desirable) and practical experience in hydrological modelling, programming, and handling climatic data are particularly well-suited for this research-intensive project.

Individuals who do not possess the specified dual qualification (Ph.D. AND M. Tech/M. E) in the required fields, or those lacking significant research and publication experience, should not apply. This is a highly specialized project role requiring specific academic credentials and demonstrated research capability.

Working as a Project Scientist II at IIT Roorkee, a prestigious Indian Institute of Technology, offers an excellent opportunity to contribute to a significant DST-sponsored research project (Hindon Roots Sensing - HiROS). While the position is contractual for a short duration (2.5 months, extendable), it provides valuable exposure to cutting-edge research in water management and eco-hydrological modelling, enhancing one's research portfolio and professional network within a top-tier academic environment.
