JRF in Quality, Reliability and Operations Researc

1. About the ISI JRF in Quality, Reliability & Operations Research (QRO)

The Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) offers Junior Research Fellowships in Quality, Reliability, and Operations Research, ideal for students who want to build careers in industrial quality systems, reliability engineering, stochastic modeling, and operational optimization.Applicants generally:

• Hold a Master’s degree in Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering, or a related quantitative discipline.

• Must clear ISI’s competitive written test, followed by a research proposal evaluation and interview.

• Compete for limited fellowship seats, demanding rigorous conceptual and applied preparation.

The selection process evaluates:

• Core understanding of Probability and Stochastic Models.

• Knowledge of Quality Control and Reliability systems.

• Optimization and Operations Research techniques.

• Research aptitude for modeling and real-world applications.
