Junior Research Fellow

This role is most suitable for candidates holding a B.E./B.Tech (Civil Engineering with a valid GATE score) or M.E./M.Tech (Transportation Engineering or related specializations). The ideal applicant will possess an interest or desirable experience in GPS-based vehicle/traffic data collection, computer vision, and basic AI/ML techniques, and be eager to contribute to a research project focused on smart transportation systems. It's particularly beneficial for individuals aspiring to pursue a PhD at IIT Indore.

Candidates without a valid GATE score for B.E./B.Tech in Civil Engineering or those who do not possess the specified engineering degrees are not suitable. Individuals seeking permanent government employment or not interested in contract-based research projects will find this role unsuitable.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology Indore (IIT Indore) offers significant institutional prestige and valuable research experience. The 'OASIS - Overtaking Assistance System in Indian Scenario' project is relevant to modern transportation challenges, providing a strong foundation for a career in academia or R&D. There is a clear pathway for potential PhD registration and extended fellowship based on performance.
