PhD and Postdoctoral Positions in ECE, VLSI, Nanoscale Devices, MEMS, Biosensors, and AI/ML at KL University KL University in

KL University (KLEF, Deemed to be University), Andhra Pradesh, India, is announcing research openings in PhD and postdoctoral tracks in Electronics and Communication Engineering and allied areas. The post highlights a strong research environment through the VLSI-MEMS Research Lab and the VLSI-MEMS Research Center, with opportunities for high-quality publications in IEEE/SCI journals and collaborative research at national and international levels.

Research areas include VLSI Design & Technology, nanoscale semiconductor devices (TFET, FinFET, GAA, etc.), MEMS & sensors, biosensors and nanoelectronics, AI/ML applications in electronics, advanced circuit design, and quantum computing. The PDF also mentions research in device modelling and machine learning-driven design.

Eligibility for the PhD route includes a relevant Master’s degree such as M.Tech, M.Sc, or equivalent. The poster specifically mentions candidates in ECE/EEE/CSE/Physics with NET/GATE/GPAT qualification. For the postdoctoral/PDF track, a PhD in ECE, Nanoelectronics, VLSI/MEMS, or a related field is preferred, along with strong publications and experience in AI-TCAD, device modelling, MEMS, or quantum computing.

Funding is mentioned in the poster: PhD fellows may receive ₹33,000 per month, or ₹38,000 per month for NET/GATE/GPAT-qualified candidates. The PDF also states a fellowship of ₹50,000 per month for the PhD/PDF track. No tuition waiver or fee waiver is stated.

How to apply: candidates should go through the official entrance/admissions process at KLEF. Interested applicants are also encouraged to share their CV for research collaboration opportunities and contact Dr. K. Srinivasa Rao for more details. The post does not provide a separate application deadline.
