CENTRAL UNIVERSITY OF RAJASTHAN 2026: 2 Project Research Assistant & Field Investigator Vacancies

This opportunity is ideal for recent postgraduates or graduates in Social Science disciplines who are seeking temporary research experience within an academic setting. Candidates with NET/M.Phil./Ph.D. for the Project Research Assistant role or a four-year undergraduate degree for the Field Investigator role are preferred. Those looking to contribute to a specific, short-term research project under the supervision of a Project Director will find this role highly suitable.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or roles with long-term career progression should not apply, as these positions are strictly temporary and co-terminus with the project duration (4-8 months). Applicants requiring travel allowances (TA/DA) for interviews or who cannot commit to joining in person at the university location will also find this unsuitable.

Working with the Central University of Rajasthan, an institution recognized by NIRF and NAAC, offers valuable academic exposure. While the positions are temporary, they provide practical experience in research project execution and management, which can significantly enhance a candidate's profile for future academic pursuits or research-oriented careers. The scope is confined to the specific ICSSR Minor Research Project, focusing on Bhojpuri folk literature, offering specialized expertise development in a niche area.
