Join Us
In the group, we aim to establish a vibrant, interactive, and inclusive research environment, and we are always looking for motivated and skilled candidates from diverse backgrounds to join our group as PhD students, and post-doctoral fellows. To pursue your PhD at IIT Palakkad, you have to hold a MSc/MS degree in Physics, and pass one of the competitive national-level examinations (see IIT Palakkad Research Portal for details). Qualified candidates will have to go through the admission procedure in place, including an examination and an interview. If you are interested, please get in touch via email to amit[at]iitpkd[dot]ac[dot]in, attaching your CV, prior to applying formally for more information on research topics and availability of positions.
We have a few very competitive post-doc positions at the Department, and we encourage interested postdoctoral candidates to apply for funding, eg., ANRF-National Post-Doctoral Fellowship, or a Woman Scientist position with us. If you are interested, please contact by sending an email to amit[at]iitpkd[dot]ac[dot]in with your CV.
