NIT Warangal Junior Research Fellow (JRF) Recruitment 2026 - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly motivated candidates holding a first-class B.E./B.Tech in Mechanical, Production, or Metallurgy, combined with an M.E./M.Tech in relevant specializations such as Manufacturing, Welding, CAD-CAM, or Design. Candidates should be under 35 years of age (with relaxations for reserved categories/women) and possess a strong interest in research, particularly in the domain of 'Weldability Studies of Additively Manufactured Maraging Steel and Titanium Alloy'. This temporary, project-based position offers a monthly stipend of Rs. 31,000 and access to on-campus hostel facilities, making it suitable for those looking to gain valuable research experience in a prestigious institution.

Individuals without the specified engineering degrees (B.E./B.Tech and M.E./M.Tech with relevant specializations) or those exceeding the age limit of 35 years (without applicable relaxations) should not apply. The position is temporary for two years, so candidates seeking long-term permanent employment directly should consider other options. A lack of genuine interest in the specific research project's domain might also be a significant deterrent.

NIT Warangal is an Institution of National Importance, offering a strong academic and research environment. A Junior Research Fellow position here provides excellent exposure to cutting-edge research, particularly through the DRDL-sponsored project. While the role is contractual, it offers significant career enhancement through publications, networking, and a strong foundation for future doctoral studies or research positions in prestigious organizations like DRDL.
