does a Ph.d holder in engineering from IITs or IISc need to pass UGC JRF to work as a researcher in any national or international lab?

Thanx @||aru.chopra|| Dear Sandeep, There is no need to pursue UGC JRF. In fact, all the time, international universities publicize the need for research fellows. You may apply with a letter of recommendation from your IIT/IISc professor/dean/HOD. The chances of success for IIT alumni is very high

No need to pass UGC JRF as per the "GUIDELINES FOR JUNIOR RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP IN ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY."

Hi, U.G.C Junior Research Fellowship will be an added advantage for a Doctorate in Engineering to gain hands on experience while doing research in any national or international level laboratories. @||Dr.Goutam Chatterjee|| and @||Dr MohsinKhan|| are requested to assist further. Thanks and Regard
