Re: Admission in CSIR after Integrated B.Tech and M.Tech in Biotechnology

No, you are not eligible for CSIR after pursing integrated B.Tech and M.Tech in Biotechnology. As M Tech candidates (either with B Tech/ M Tech or with MSc/ M Tech) are not eligible for the fellowship. They have a separate opportunity for direct SRFship through interview. All those eligible for direct CSIR SRF cannot apply for this fellowship.

CSIR conducts research fellowship for the GATE qualified candidates with BE/ BTech/ BArch/ BPharm degree to pursue research leading to PhD. This will be known as the GATE qualified Junior Research Fellowship (JRF-GATE).

JRF’s selected under this scheme will have excellent opportunity to work with the CSIR scientists with state-of-art R&D facility and obtain PhD degree. These fellowships are tenable only at CSIR laboratories.

Candidates fulfilling any of the criteria given below are eligible to apply :

Fresh BE/ B Tech degree holders with valid GATE score. The selected candidates will have to pursue Ph.D. There can be two possibilities under this:

Get direct admission to Ph. D programme of University/ IIT/ NIT/REC etc.

After joining as JRF-GATE, the candidate may pursue M Tech as a part of PhD programme, where their thesis semester (last semester) should be spent at the CSIR laboratory relating to lab specialization in order to keep the continuity for the PhD programme.

OR

Those who are starting the thesis semester of ME/ M Tech programme and having valid GATE score and desirous of pursuing PhD.

It may be noted that these candidates have to work on their PhD problem and should not be employed in sponsored projects.

AGE LIMIT
The upper age limit for JRF is 28 yrs which is relaxable up to 5 years in case of candidates belonging to Scheduled Castes/ Scheduled Tribes, women, physically handicapped and OBC applicants.

STIPEND AND TENURE
The fellowship is given to a candidate for a total duration of five years within which the candidate is required to complete the PhD degree.

This fellowship amount is Rs 16000/- plus HRA per month.
In addition, contingency grant of Rs 20,000/- per annum (calculated on pro rata basis for fraction of a year) is available to each fellowship as per the CSIR guidelines.

Further on completion of 2 years as JRF-GATE, the fellowship is upgraded to SRF-GATE and stipend is increased to Rs 18000/- per month in the subsequent years on the basis of assessment as per normal CSIR rules.

In exceptional cases where the fellow has completed M Tech within 1 year of joining JRF-GATE, the Director may assess the performance of the fellow (through a 3 member assessment committee) and recommend up gradation of the fellowship to SRF-GATE. All other conditions of JRF-NET apply.
