Junior Research Fellow & Ph.D. Scholar

This role is ideally suited for highly motivated M.Tech/M.Sc. degree holders in specialized fields such as Materials Engineering, Metallurgy, Nanoscience, Energy Science, Chemistry, or Physics, who possess a valid GATE/CSIR score. Candidates aspiring to pursue a Ph.D. and having a background in CALPHAD or Materials Characterization will find this opportunity particularly fitting for a career in advanced research, especially within defense-related projects.

Candidates who do not meet the specified M.Tech/M.Sc. qualifications or lack a valid GATE/CSIR score should not apply. Individuals primarily seeking permanent employment, those unwilling to commit to a time-bound research project (3 years), or those not interested in enrolling in a Ph.D. program will find this position unsuitable.

Working as a JRF/Ph.D. Scholar at IIT Hyderabad, a leading Institution of National Importance, offers immense academic and research prestige. The DRDO sponsorship adds significant weight, providing exposure to strategic defense research and enhancing career prospects in both academia and specialized industries. This position serves as an excellent foundation for a long-term career in scientific research and development.
