We are looking for a highly motivated Junior Research Fellow (JRF) to join an ANRF-sponsored research project in the Department of Civil Engineering at BITS Pilani .

The selected candidate will work on the cutting-edge research area of Suction–Stiffness–Microstructure Coupling in Unsaturated Soils , with opportunities to explore soil suction, unsaturated soil behaviour, soil stabilisation, dynamic testing, microstructural characterisation, and advanced geotechnical experimentation .

The position offers an opportunity to work in a energetic and collaborative research environment equipped with advanced experimental facilities, world-class infrastructure, SATHI-supported research facilities, and a vibrant community of research scholars and faculty mentors.





Qualification: M.E./M.Tech in Geotechnical Engineering

GATE: Preferred, but not mandatory for an exceptional candidate

Fellowship: ₹37,000/month for the first two years and ₹42,000/month thereafter.

If you are curious about the science behind soil suction, stiffness and microstructure and want to work at the frontier of Soil Geotechnics , we would love to hear from you.
