Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated postgraduate candidates with an M.Sc. in Chemistry or a related field (minimum 55% marks) who possess prior research experience in Surface Chemistry, Nanomaterials, or Bioinspired Surfaces. It suits individuals looking to gain valuable research experience in a sponsored project environment and contribute to innovative work on sustainable liquid repellency. Candidates aiming for a temporary, project-specific engagement up to three years will find this opportunity suitable.

Candidates without an M.Sc. in Chemistry or a relevant subject, or those with less than 55% marks, should not apply. Individuals seeking permanent government employment or positions with long-term security beyond the project duration will find this role unsuitable as it is purely temporary and co-terminus with the project. Those without prior research experience in the specified areas may also be at a disadvantage.

NIT Srinagar, an Institute of National Importance under the Ministry of Education, offers a reputable academic and research environment. This project-based Junior Research Fellow position provides an excellent opportunity to work on a nationally funded research project (Anusandhan National Research Foundation). While temporary, it offers significant exposure to cutting-edge research and can be a strong foundation for a career in academia or R&D, enhancing one's profile for future doctoral or research positions.
