CSIR-National Environmental Engineering Research Institute: Project Scientist-III Walk-in-Interview 2026 - 01 (Anticipated 03) Vacancies

This role is ideal for highly experienced research professionals holding a PhD or M.Tech in Chemistry, Environmental Science, or Chemical Engineering. Candidates must possess at least seven years of dedicated R&D experience in industrial, academic, or scientific organizations, particularly those with expertise in Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) monitoring, analytical method development, and GC-MS operations. Individuals seeking a project-based, temporary engagement with a strong research focus and a desire to contribute to national environmental initiatives will find this suitable.

Candidates without the mandatory PhD/M.Tech qualification or the specified seven years of R&D experience should not apply, as these are essential requirements. Those seeking permanent government employment or roles with immediate career progression into regular CSIR positions will find this unsuitable, as the position is purely temporary and co-terminus with the project duration. Applicants who prefer online application processes should note this is a walk-in interview requiring physical presence with documents.

CSIR-National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) is a premier national institute under the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR), offering significant prestige in environmental research. While the Project Scientist-III position is temporary and project-specific, it provides an excellent opportunity to work on critical national projects like the 'Review and Update of National Implementation Plan on Persistent Organic Pollutants.' This role allows for high-impact research contributions and networking within a reputable scientific organization, enhancing professional credentials. Long-term career growth within CSIR would require applying for permanent positions separately, as project engagements do not guarantee regularization.
