Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated engineering or science graduates/postgraduates holding a valid GATE score (if B.E./B.Tech) who are eager to engage in cutting-edge research. Candidates with a strong background in CAD/CAM, MATLAB, Mathematical Modeling, and Robotics, seeking valuable experience in soft robotic gripper development under a DRDO-funded project, will find this position particularly suitable.

Individuals aspiring for permanent government employment or those who do not meet the essential educational qualifications, especially the valid GATE score requirement for B.E./B.Tech candidates, should not apply. This is a purely temporary, project-specific role for a duration of three years, and candidates expecting long-term security or immediate benefits beyond the project tenure may find it unsuitable.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at a National Institute of Technology (MANIT Bhopal) on a DRDO-funded project offers significant prestige and exposure. It provides an excellent platform for research in advanced robotics, enhancing one's profile for future Ph.D. admissions, academic positions, or R&D roles in leading organizations. While the position itself is contractual, the experience gained is highly valuable and career-building within the research and technology sector.
