Indian Institute of Technology Mandi Project Associate I Recruitment 2026 - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for fresh B. Tech graduates in Automobile Engineering or equivalent disciplines who are eager to gain experience in cutting-edge research environments. Candidates should be self-driven, proficient in technical skills, and interested in contributing to projects involving Unmanned Aircraft Systems and related drone technology. Those looking for a temporary, project-based opportunity within a prestigious institution like IIT Mandi will find this role appealing.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or roles with long-term security should not apply, as this is a temporary project-based position with a fixed consolidated pay. Candidates without a B. Tech in Automobile or an equivalent engineering degree will not meet the essential educational qualifications. While desirable, applicants without 5 years of experience in CAD software (AutoCAD, Solidworks, ANSYS) might find themselves at a disadvantage during selection, though it's not a mandatory requirement.

Working at an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) offers significant prestige and exposure to high-level research and academic standards. Although a temporary project position, it provides an excellent foundation for future career prospects in research, academia, or advanced technology sectors, particularly in areas like UAVs and robotics. This role offers an opportunity to contribute to a nationally relevant project and build a strong professional network.
