Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee 2026 Recruitment for Project Assistant (Tech.) - 01 Post

This role is ideal for fresh or early-career B.Tech./B.E. graduates in Civil Engineering (or allied fields) who have a keen interest in research, particularly in Structural Engineering. Candidates seeking hands-on experience in a prestigious academic research environment with a focus on railway structures will find this opportunity suitable. The position offers a chance to contribute to a sponsored project by RDSO, providing valuable exposure.

Individuals not possessing a B.Tech./B.E. in Civil Engineering or allied fields, or those primarily looking for permanent government employment, should not apply. The role is contractual, project-based, and for a limited duration of one year (extendable). Candidates unwilling to work in a research laboratory setting or manage project records will also find this role unsuitable. There is no provision for TA/DA for interviews.

Working at IIT Roorkee, a nationally acclaimed Institute of National Importance, offers significant prestige and a strong foundation for a research-oriented career. While the position is contractual, experience gained here, especially on a project sponsored by RDSO, can open doors to further research roles, higher studies, or specialized engineering positions in related industries. The experience with Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) and railway structures is highly specialized and valuable.
