National Institute of Technology Raipur 2026 Recruitment: Research Staff (01 Vacancy) for IIM Indore CoE Project

This role is ideal for recent graduates (B.E./B.Tech in Metallurgical, Mechanical, Chemical Engineering, or B.Sc. in Chemistry) with a strong academic record, including final year students. Candidates with a keen interest in materials science, process metallurgy, energy devices, and waste management, particularly those with research experience or publications in process metallurgy, and proficiency in extractive metallurgy/electrochemistry, will find this a valuable opportunity to gain project experience under an Institute of National Importance.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or a high-paying role should not apply, as this is a purely temporary, one-year contractual research position with a fixed consolidated fellowship. Those who cannot attend the in-person interview in Raipur or are unable to compile their application documents precisely as a single PDF with the specified subject line will also face rejection.

Working with NIT Raipur, an Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic and research prestige. This project, sponsored by IIM Indore's Anveshan Center of Excellence and MoHUA, provides exposure to high-impact research on sustainable lithium-ion battery recovery. While temporary, it offers a strong foundation for future research or academic careers, particularly in specialized fields of materials and chemical engineering.
