An industry-sponsored project is open for work in our group. A candidate willing to build his/her career for a doctoral program may contact me through email. However, the application for the position of Junior Research Fellow (Senior Research Fellow after 2nd year) has to be done through the IIT Kharagpur portal. The topic of the work is to prepare bio-sourced nanostructured carbon for various applications. The by-products from the bio-source before and after thermal treatment will be used, focusing on their use as sustainable additives in polymer compounding. The essential qualifications and desired criteria are given in the advertisement published on the IIT Kharagpur webpage: https://erp.iitkgp.ac.in/SricWeb/temporaryJobs.htm
