Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) Recruitment 2026: 2 Research Associate & Assistant Posts for ICSSR Project

This role is ideal for post-graduate candidates with a strong academic background in social science, particularly those with a focus on research, data analysis, and GIS mapping. Individuals with M.Phil., Ph.D., NET/SLET qualifications will be highly regarded. It suits those looking for a short-term, project-based engagement within a prestigious central university environment.

Candidates lacking a post-graduate degree in social science with at least 55% marks, or those not proficient in data analysis and GIS, should not apply. Individuals seeking long-term, permanent employment might find the 8-month (extendable to 1 year) project duration unsuitable. The absence of TA/DA for interviews may also be a consideration for out-of-station candidates.

Working with Aligarh Muslim University, a prominent central university, offers significant academic prestige and networking opportunities in a research setting. Though project-based, it provides valuable experience for those aspiring to careers in research, academia, or policy analysis, especially in the domain of social science and geospatial studies. The project's funding by ICSSR further enhances its academic relevance.
