IIT Kharagpur invites applications for one JRF post, pay Rs 37,000
The Story in Brief
Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur has invited online applications for one Junior Research Fellow post in a project on alloy design for additive manufacturing of rare earth permanent magnets, sponsored by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology. Consolidated compensation is up to Rs 37,000 per month, depending on qualification and experience, for 24 months or until the project ends.
Candidates must hold a postgraduate degree in basic science or a graduate or postgraduate degree in a professional course, selected through national eligibility tests like CSIR-UGC NET or GATE or similar central government examinations. The age limit is 28 years as of the last date, and the application fee is nil for all categories. The last date to apply is 24 November 2026.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The project targets rare-earth permanent magnets for additive manufacturing, a niche area with strategic importance in electronics, yet the advertisement leaves key details unspecified, no interview date, no documents list, and an age cap of 28 with no explicit relaxation rules. The single vacancy and temporary 24-month tenure mean only one early-career researcher will gain this exposure, and the salary of Rs 37,000 is modest. Candidates must watch for the selection procedure, which is not defined, the sole concrete deadline is 24 November 2026.
