Morgan succeeded last season in taking the Robins into the engage Super League and made a superb start to this campaign before a recent run of defeats saw them lose much of their momentum.
Chairman Neil Hudgell said: "I am thrilled that we have secured what we believe to be the brightest young coach around, for the next three-and-a-half years."
He added: "For us to make progress, continuity is essential, and the deal we have done with Justin will enable him to continue to develop the side at senior level and equally, and possibly more importantly, to re-establish and develop the junior academy."
Morgan said: "This is a huge step forward for me as a coach. I have an excellent working relationship with both the chairman and the chief executive, who continually support me along with the board of directors in the role I undertake at Hull KR.
"My original contract went up until the end of 2008, but this opportunity gives me the chance to help improve the capabilities of the talented squad that I have. As the club's future prospects are extremely bright and, along with the devoted support from our fans, I am very confident the club will succeed in our bid for continued Super League status."
