Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for candidates holding a first-class B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical, Production, or Metallurgy, or an M.E./M.Tech in related specializations like Manufacturing, Welding, or CAD-CAM. Individuals with a strong academic record and a keen interest in research, particularly in 'Weldability Studies of Additively Manufactured Maraging Steel, and Titanium alloy' under a DRDO-sponsored project, will find this position highly suitable. Women and candidates from OBC/SC/ST categories can also benefit from age relaxations.

This position is not suitable for individuals seeking permanent government employment or those without the specified engineering qualifications. Candidates whose age exceeds 35 years (or 40 years for relaxed categories) will not be eligible. Those looking for roles outside of temporary, project-based research in core engineering disciplines should not apply.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at NIT Warangal, an Institution of National Importance, on a DRDO-sponsored project offers significant academic and research prestige. This temporary position provides valuable hands-on experience in cutting-edge materials science and manufacturing research, which can serve as an excellent foundation for future academic pursuits (e.g., PhD) or specialized roles in R&D within defense or industrial sectors. While not a permanent role, the experience gained is highly reputable and beneficial for career progression in research.
