CSIR-CFTRI Project Associate-II Recruitment 2026: 1 Vacancy for Project Associate-II

This role is ideal for M.Sc. graduates in Food Technology with a mandatory 2 years of R&D experience, specifically in Bakery Product Development. Candidates who also possess experience in wheat flour milling and related areas are highly preferred. It suits individuals seeking a temporary, project-based research position within a prestigious national laboratory.

Individuals without the essential M.Sc. in Food Technology or the required 2 years of R&D experience should not apply. Those seeking permanent employment or applicants who have already completed 6 years as project staff in any CSIR lab are not eligible, as this is a purely temporary, contractual engagement with no scope for regularization.

CSIR-CFTRI is a renowned national laboratory under the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR), offering a valuable opportunity to gain specialized research experience in food technology. While the position is temporary, it provides excellent exposure to advanced research methodologies and a strong platform for future academic or research careers within India's prominent government autonomous scientific institutions.
