Indian Institute of Technology Goa Junior Research Fellow Recruitment 2026 - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for M.E/M.Tech (or exceptional B.E/B.Tech with a valid GATE score) graduates in Mechanical, Chemical Engineering, or allied branches who possess a strong interest in numerical research and fluid-particle dynamics. Candidates with prior experience in CFD simulations, Openfoam, Aerosol Modeling, and a basic understanding of coupled CFD modeling will find themselves highly suitable.

Candidates lacking a valid GATE score or the specified essential educational qualifications will not be considered. Individuals seeking a permanent government position should note this is a project-based, contractual role of limited duration (6 months, extendable). Those without a foundational understanding or interest in numerical modeling and computational fluid dynamics may find the work challenging.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at IIT Goa, a premier institution, offers a significant boost to one's research profile. The project, sponsored by BRNS (DAE), highlights its national importance and offers valuable experience in cutting-edge research, potentially leading to publications and future academic or industrial opportunities in specialized fields like nuclear science and environmental monitoring. While a contractual role, it provides exposure to high-impact research environments.
