Junior Research Fellow

This opportunity is ideal for recent engineering graduates (B.E./B.Tech/M.Tech) holding a First Division in Chemical, Mechanical, Civil, Electronics, or Computer Engineering. Crucially, applicants must possess a valid NET/GATE qualification and be eager to undertake a temporary research fellowship within a prestigious defense research environment. It suits individuals aiming to gain valuable R&D experience and contribute to critical national defense projects.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment directly, those without a mandatory NET/GATE qualification, or individuals exceeding the age of 28 years (without applicable relaxations) should not apply. This is a temporary fellowship and does not guarantee absorption into a permanent role.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at DRDO's CFEES offers significant prestige and exposure within India's premier defense research organization. This fellowship provides a strong foundation for a career in scientific research and development, particularly within the defense sector, and can be a stepping stone for future academic or research roles, despite its temporary nature.
