AICTE Industry Fellowship 2026: AICTE has officially announced the launch of the application form for AICTE IFP 2026, which will be instrumental in bringing academia and industry closer by fostering cooperation in light of the national vision Viksit Bharat @2047. Through this groundbreaking program, eligible regular faculty members are awarded a handsome monthly allowance of ₹1,00,000 (₹1 Lakh). Under this program, technical teachers have the unique opportunity of getting themselves out of their classrooms and experiencing a one-year, full-time stint within some top-notch companies/industrial setups. Faculty members will be able to get their hands dirty with the latest technologies while dealing with real commercial projects, which they will ultimately bring into the Indian classroom setting.
The financial aspect of this program is very impressive indeed as the ₹1 Lakh scholarship provided by the institute itself, which is partially sponsored by AICTE as well as the biggest companies in India like Volvo and Hero MotoCorp, gets added on top of all the salary and benefits that the professor gets from his/her parent institute. Any regular faculty below the age of 50 years and having at least five years of teaching experience can apply for this distinguished program at ifp.aicte.gov.in till 25th June, 2026.
