PhD Position in Magnetic Materials at VIT Vellore
PhD opportunity in Magnetic Materials at VIT Vellore
The Magnetic Materials Group (MMG) at
VIT Vellore
is inviting applications for a
Doctoral Researcher / PhD Scholar
to work in
magnetic materials
,
physics
, and
materials science
. The project spans
functional and advanced magnets
such as soft and hard magnetic materials, ferrites, high-entropy alloys, and rare-earth-free permanent magnets.
Research directions include
spintronics
,
magnetocaloric cooling materials
, and
energy storage/conversion
. The role also involves
magnetic property measurements
(VSM, SQUID),
structural characterization
(XRD, FE-SEM, TEM), and
transport/dielectric spectroscopy
.
Eligible applicants should hold an
M.Sc., M.Tech., or M.E.
in
Physics
,
Materials Science
,
Nanoscience
,
Nanotechnology
,
Applied Physics
, or a related field. Strong foundations in
solid-state physics
,
materials chemistry
, or
condensed matter physics
are preferred, and prior experience with magnetic characterization or synthesis techniques is a plus.
The post emphasizes a collaborative academic environment, access to advanced synthesis and characterization facilities, and support for conference participation, networking, and career development. The application route is through the
VITREE 2027 PhD Programme
for the
January session
.
Location:
Vellore, India.
