Deshbandhu College ICSSR Project Staff Recruitment 2026: Research Assistant & Field Investigator (3 Vacancies)

This opportunity is ideal for recent postgraduates or graduates in Social Science disciplines looking to gain short-term research experience within a prestigious academic setting. Candidates with NET/M.Phil./Ph.D. for the Research Assistant role, or a strong academic record (especially with a four-year graduation program) for the Field Investigator position, who are keen on project-based, part-time engagement, will find this suitable. Those with a background in Labour Economics, published research, or proficiency in statistical software are particularly encouraged to apply.

Individuals seeking permanent employment, full-time roles, or positions with long-term stability should not apply, as these are temporary, part-time positions with a limited duration of five months, co-terminus with the project. Candidates expecting specific pay scales beyond 'ICSSR norms' or those unwilling to attend an interview without TA/DA reimbursement should also reconsider.

Working with Deshbandhu College, an NAAC A++ accredited institution under the University of Delhi, offers a valuable opportunity to contribute to an ICSSR-funded research project. While the roles are temporary, they provide excellent academic exposure, enhance research profiles, and offer a stepping stone for future academic or research careers within a reputable central university environment.
