Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi JRF Recruitment 2026: 01 Junior Research Fellow Vacancy

This role is ideally suited for highly motivated Indian nationals holding a Master's or Bachelor's degree in Computer Science Engineering, Information Technology, Electronics and Communication Engineering, or Electrical Engineering (or allied disciplines). Candidates must be GATE/NET qualified and possess strong academic records (minimum 60% for Master's, 75% for Bachelor's). This is an excellent opportunity for individuals passionate about research in AI-powered agricultural systems, particularly those seeking temporary, project-based work with the potential to enroll in a Ph.D. program at IIT(BHU).

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this position is purely temporary and conterminous with the project duration. Applicants who do not meet the mandatory GATE/NET qualification or the specified minimum academic percentages for their respective degrees will not be considered. Those not interested in a research-intensive environment or a contract-based role will find this position unsuitable.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi offers significant academic prestige and invaluable experience. This role on an ICAR-sponsored project, 'HARVEST,' provides exposure to cutting-edge AI research in agricultural systems. While the position is temporary, it offers a strong foundation for a research career and a potential pathway to Ph.D. enrollment at a top-tier institution, enhancing long-term academic and professional growth prospects.
