Doctoral Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated individuals holding a Ph.D. in Humanities & Social Sciences, Science & Technology Studies, or related fields. Candidates with a strong research background in areas like Philosophy or Sociology of Science, or Anthropology, and a passion for teaching at the undergraduate level, will be particularly well-suited. The position demands a commitment to research, publishing, and teaching within a specific timeframe.

Candidates without a Ph.D. in the specified or related disciplines should not apply. Those seeking permanent employment or a role with extensive administrative responsibilities may find this temporary, contract-based position unsuitable. Individuals over 35 years old (as on July 10, 2026) without valid age relaxation considerations should also consider other opportunities.

Working as a Post-Doctoral Fellow at IISER Pune, an Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic prestige and a valuable platform for advanced research and teaching experience. While the position is temporary (initially for one year), it provides an excellent opportunity to build a strong publication record and gain pedagogical experience, which can be highly beneficial for future academic and research careers in top-tier institutions.
