IIT Roorkee Post-Doctoral Fellowship Recruitment 2026 (Chemical Engg) — 1 Post, Email by 14 Sep

Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) has released the Post-Doctoral Fellowship Recruitment 2026 notification for 1 vacancy under Advertisement No. IITR/CH/PDF/26-27/PKJ/01. Is IIT Roorkee Post-Doctoral Fellowship Recruitment 2026 out? Yes — eligible candidates can apply via email on or before 14 September 2026. Candidates holding a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Bioengineering, or a closely related discipline are eligible to apply for this Post-Doctoral Fellowship post. Candidates must be well conversant with the theoretical foundations of molecular simulations and open-source tools such as GROMACS and LAMMPS, or have extensive experience in the synthesis and characterization of drug delivery systems, along with strong academic credentials and at least two high-quality original research publications (review articles not considered). Prior experience in both computational and experimental work is preferred but not mandatory. The selected candidate will draw a monthly salary of ₹80,000 plus HRA, along with an annual contingency grant of ₹50,000. Selection proceeds through Screening of applications followed by an Interview, with no separate written test. Interested candidates must apply entirely via email, sending a covering letter, CV, reference letters, publication list, and a research statement combined in a single PDF file to the official email address. There is no application fee for this recruitment, and the interdisciplinary eligibility spanning molecular simulations and drug delivery systems suggests this role supports a computational-experimental hybrid research project at IIT Roorkee's Chemical Engineering department. Required Documents: candidates should keep ready original and self-attested photocopies of their PhD degree certificate, a complete publication list, reference letters, and a research statement, all combined into a single PDF for the email application. This Post-Doctoral Fellowship position falls under the Department of Chemical Engineering at IIT Roorkee, and candidates with hands-on experience in polymer-based or nanoparticle drug delivery systems, or with strong computational chemistry backgrounds in molecular dynamics simulations, may find their profile particularly well-suited to this interdisciplinary research role.
