Junior Research Fellow & Project Associate

This role is most suitable for highly motivated engineering graduates or postgraduates (B.E./B.Tech. or M.E./M.Tech./M.S.) in Electrical, Electronics & Communication, Instrumentation, or Computer Engineering disciplines. Candidates should possess a strong academic record (minimum 60% marks/6.5 CGPA, or 55%/6.0 CGPA for SC/ST) and a keen interest in cutting-edge R&D, specifically in FPGA acceleration for Deep Neural Networks. A valid GATE qualification is mandatory for the Junior Research Fellow position. This is ideal for those seeking research exposure within a government-funded project, with the option for PhD registration.

Individuals lacking the specified engineering degrees or minimum academic percentages should not apply. Candidates without a GATE qualification will not be eligible for the Junior Research Fellow position. Those seeking a permanent government job or long-term employment beyond the project's duration should be aware that these are temporary, project-based roles.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow or Project Associate at a National Institute of Technology (NIT) under a MeitY-funded R&D project offers significant prestige and valuable research experience. The project focuses on advanced topics like FPGA acceleration for Deep Neural Networks, providing exposure to cutting-edge technology. This opportunity can greatly enhance an individual's academic and research profile, potentially leading to PhD registration, and offers a strong foundation for future careers in research, academia, or high-tech industries.
