CSIR Madras Complex 2026 Walk-in Interview for Project Associate-I & Junior Research Fellow (2 Vacancies)

This opportunity is ideal for freshers or early-career professionals holding B.E./B.Tech (Chemical/Mineral Engineering) or M.Sc. (Chemistry/Material Science) qualifications, particularly those with a NET/GATE score for the JRF position. Candidates seeking temporary, project-based research experience in materials recovery processes within a prestigious government research institution will find this role highly suitable. Individuals ready for an immediate walk-in interview with all necessary documents should apply.

Individuals seeking permanent employment or long-term stability with CSIR should not apply, as these are strictly temporary project-based positions with co-terminus tenure. Those without the specified engineering or science degrees, or who are unwilling to undergo a potential written test, will not be suitable. Candidates expecting TA/DA for the interview will be disappointed.

Working with the CSIR Madras Complex, a unit of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, offers significant prestige and exposure to state-of-the-art R&D projects. While the roles are temporary, they provide valuable hands-on training and research experience, enhancing future career prospects in the scientific and industrial sectors. The experience gained under CSIR can be a strong credential for further academic or research pursuits.
