Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) Project Assistant Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for individuals holding a Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Science, or a 3-year Diploma in Engineering & Technology with prior experience in the WASH sector. Candidates with a keen interest in research project support, documentation, and editorial tasks, particularly with desirable experience in water, hygiene, and sanitation projects, will find this a suitable short-term contractual opportunity within a prestigious academic environment.

Those seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a project-based contractual position with a fixed duration until December 31, 2027. Applicants without the specified educational qualifications (Bachelor's in Engg/Science or Diploma in Engg & Tech with WASH experience) or those unwilling to attend a walk-in interview in Roorkee without travel allowance will find this unsuitable.

Working at IIT Roorkee, an Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic and research prestige. While a contractual project role, it provides valuable experience in a critical area (Water Resources Development and Management) under a sponsored research project, enhancing one's profile for future academic or research positions. The institutional reputation of IIT Roorkee offers a strong foundation for career growth, particularly in the research and development sector.
