Central University of Jharkhand Project Associate I Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly qualified individuals holding a First Class M.Tech/M.Sc. in Geoinformatics, Geography, Remote Sensing, or GIS, with a valid NET/GATE qualification. Candidates possessing prior working experience with satellite and meteorological data, and proficiency in LiDAR data processing, will find this project-based position highly suitable. The role requires willingness to undertake extensive field activities in the challenging Himalayan terrain.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a purely temporary, project-specific position. Individuals without a First Class postgraduate degree in the specified disciplines or NET/GATE qualification will not meet the essential criteria. Unwillingness to participate in rigorous field activities in high-altitude regions (Himalaya) also makes this role unsuitable.

This is a valuable opportunity for research enthusiasts to work on a government-funded (DST-SHRI) project at a Central University. While temporary, it offers specialized experience in advanced geospatial technologies and field research, enhancing a professional's resume for future academic or research roles in Earth Sciences, Remote Sensing, or GIS. It provides exposure to significant national projects and a strong foundation for career progression in specialized research domains.
