IIT Indore Research Associate Recruitment 2026: Overview
Indian Institute of Technology Indore (IIT Indore) is recruiting a Research Associate for its Civil Engineering Department at Simrol, Indore. The Institute RDF-funded appointment focuses on geotechnical engineering, with Prof. Neelima Satyam named as the contact for the recruitment. This is an initially short project appointment, and the notice asks you to read the professor’s research profile before applying.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Initial tenure: The appointment runs for four months initially. The notice does not promise a longer engagement or set out extension terms, so you should plan around the stated initial period.
- Research context: The funding entry names Institute RDF, while the project-title entry reads NIL. The notice therefore identifies the department and research area without giving the assignment a separate project name.
- Research profile: The notice specifically directs applicants to Prof. Neelima Satyam’s profile. This gives you a named academic contact whose work you can review when considering the geotechnical assignment.
- Interview expenses: The institute will not pay travel or daily allowance for attending the interview. You will need to account for those costs yourself.
- Communication: The institute will contact shortlisted applicants for interview and notify the selected applicant by email. Keep the email address in your application available for recruitment correspondence.
- Interview scheduling: The scanned form contains a handwritten interview date, while the closing paragraph describes the timing as tentative. Use the institute’s interview communication to confirm your arrangements.
Application Submission Notes
Send your application to neelima.satyam@iiti.ac.in as a single PDF attachment. The notice asks for a detailed soft-copy CV together with the supporting records listed in the document requirements.
The correspondence contact is Prof. Neelima Satyam, Civil Engineering Department, IIT Indore, Khandwa Road, Simrol, Indore 453552. The contact telephone is 0731 660 3290.
