Junior Project Fellow JPF & Project Assistant

This role is ideally suited for recent graduates or early-career professionals holding a B.Tech or M.Tech in Civil Engineering, particularly those with a keen interest or some experience in Water Resources, Hydropower, or Machine Learning. Candidates who are motivated to contribute to cutting-edge research in climate change and integrated hydropower potential within the Jammu & Kashmir region will find this opportunity highly rewarding. The position is a project-based, contractual engagement for individuals looking to gain valuable research experience in a prestigious national institute.

Candidates without a B.Tech or M.Tech in Civil Engineering are not eligible. Those seeking permanent government employment or roles with immediate HRA benefits should note that this is a temporary, project-based fellowship without HRA. Individuals not prepared for a one-year initial contract duration should also reconsider. The limited vacancy (single post) means competition will be high, and fulfilling basic eligibility does not guarantee shortlisting.

Working as a Junior Project Fellow at the National Institute of Technology Srinagar, an autonomous Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic and research prestige. This role, specifically under a sponsored project from the J&K Science Technology & Innovation Council, provides an excellent platform for specialized research experience, networking, and potential for future academic or research careers. While it is a contractual position, the experience gained from a project on 'Climate Change Effects on Integrated Hydropower Potential' at a national institute can be a strong asset for long-term growth in the research and development sector.
