IIT Kharagpur Project Scientist II Recruitment 2026 — IndiaCAN-Twin, 1 post

The Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, Sponsored Research and Industrial Consultancy (SRIC), Department of Computer Science and Engineering, has invited online applications for one Project Scientist II (Research) post on the project "IndiaCAN-Twin: Towards AI-Powered Digital Twin Platform for Early Detection and Personalized Care in Indian Oral Cancer" (Project Code R/IND), sponsored by the Department of Biotechnology, New Delhi. The advertisement is IIT/SRIC/R/IND/2026/105, dated 6 November 2026, and the last date to apply is 20 November 2026.

Pay

The consolidated compensation is up to Rs. 67,000 per month plus HRA as applicable, with an increment of 5% for every two years of experience, subject to performance review. The tenure is 24 months or termination of the project, whichever is earlier.

Who can apply

You need a Doctoral Degree in Science, or a Masters or Integrated Masters in Engineering or Technology from a recognised university or equivalent, with three years' experience in R&D in Industrial and Academic Institutions or Science and Technology Organisations and scientific activities and services.

The age limit is a maximum of 40 years as on the last date of advertisement. No minimum age is stated. Age rules may be relaxed upon fulfilling sponsor agency rules, if any. Note: the qualifications paragraph in the PDF carries a garbled line mentioning the age and HRA — the separate Age Limit line below it states 40 years clearly, and that is the figure used here.

Fee

The application fee is Rs. 0 for all categories — General, Male, OBC, Female and SC/ST — printed explicitly in the notice. The notice nonetheless prints bank details for fee deposit, but the fee itself is zero, so no payment is due.

How to apply

Apply online through the IIT Kharagpur ERP/SRIC portal by 20 November 2026. The principal investigator is Prof. Sourangshu Bhattacharya, Department of Computer Science and Engineering.

This is a different post from the four Project Scientist-I posts under Advt IIT/SRIC/R/IND/2026/104 on the same project — different post, pay, age limit and experience requirement — so do not merge the two. Read the official advertisement PDF linked below in full before applying.
