Burke is in the men's endurance group to contest the team pursuit on the opening day of the Paris event.
Olympic gold medallist Joanna Rowsell leads the women's endurance group.
The 26-year-old, who won individual and team pursuit titles at the 2014 Track World Championships in Colombia, is joined by Laura Trott, 2014 world champions Elinor Barker, Katie Archibald and Ciara Horne in the squad.
The competition runs from 18-22 February.
