ELIGIBILITY
M.E./M.Tech./M.S. Degree in Chemical Engineering or an allied area of Engineering/Technology with a minimum of 60% marks or CGPA/CPI of 7.0 on a 10 point scale (overall percentage/CGPA/CPI; not only in majoring subject). The candidate must have qualified GATE in Chemical Engineering (CH). OR
BE/B.Tech./BS in Chemical Engineering with valid GATE score and a minimum of 60% marks or CGPA/CPI of 7.0 on a 10 point scale. However, the candidates with B.Tech. from IITs or BS/BS-MS from IISERs with CGPA/CPI of 8.0 (on a 10 point scale) and above are EXEMPTED from the requirement of a GATE score. OR
The candidates with M.Sc./M.S. Degree in an allied area of Chemical Engineering may also apply, provided
they must have a valid GATE score in any of the allied areas of Chemical Engineering OR fellowship like CSIR (NET-JRF)/ UGC/ INSPIRE/ Rajiv Gandhi Fellowship etc. Students whose results are awaited may also apply with their roll number(s) mentioned in the application.If the transcript/grade sheet issued by the Institute/University reports:
Only Marks, Percentages, CGPA, CPI, and Grades will be considered.
If CGPA/CPI is reported on any scale other than 10 (e.g. 4 point/ 8 point scale), an equivalent CGPA/CPI will be calculated as per the following formula: CGPA/CPI in a 10-point scale = (CGPA/CPI Obtained×10)/PS, PS = Point scale used by the Institute/University. Both marks and CGPA/CPI
Percentage equivalent of CGPA/CPI, as indicated on the transcript/grade sheet, will be considered if absolute grading was followed. The conversion factor must be available in the transcript/grade sheet.
Only the CGPA/CPI will be considered, if relative grading was followed.
A relaxation of 5% of marks, or an equivalent relaxation of grade, will be allowed for candidates belonging to SC/ST/PD categories. Merely fulfilling the eligibility criterion does not entitle a candidate to be called for the interview.
Please Note:
