National Institute of Technology Raipur (NITRR) Recruitment 2026: One Junior Research Fellow (JRF) Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly motivated postgraduate candidates holding an M.E./M.Tech in Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent) with strong academic credentials (60% marks/6.5 CGPA), or a B.E./B.Tech from an Institute of National Importance (75% marks/8.0 CGPA). Candidates with GATE/NET qualification and sound knowledge in MATLAB, LABVIEW, ANSYS, SOLIDWORKS, and a keen interest in nonlinear forced vibration and mechanical buckling analysis research are highly suitable. It's particularly beneficial for those aged 35 or under who aspire to pursue a Ph.D. at NIT Raipur, given the potential for enrollment.

Individuals who do not meet the essential educational qualifications, exceed the age limit of 35 years, or are not interested in a temporary, project-based research position should not apply. Those seeking immediate permanent employment or lacking the specific research software skills may find this role less suitable. Failure to submit documents via email by the deadline or attend the walk-in interview on March 18, 2026, will lead to disqualification.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at NIT Raipur, an Institute of National Importance, offers a valuable opportunity to gain research experience within a prestigious academic environment. The project is sponsored by the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF), adding to its credibility. While the position is temporary and co-terminus with the project, it provides a strong foundation for a research career and a potential pathway to Ph.D. enrollment at NIT Raipur, enhancing long-term academic and professional growth in the research domain.
