ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute Project Research Scientist-I (Non-Medical) Recruitment 2026 - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly qualified individuals holding a Post Graduate Degree in Parasitology, Microbiology, Biotechnology, Pathology, Biochemistry, or Biomedical Sciences. Candidates with strong laboratory experience in parasitological, serological, and molecular biology, particularly with evidence of research work (publications/theses), and a willingness to engage in fieldwork involving animal handling and sample collection, will find this opportunity suitable. It targets those seeking temporary research engagement in a prestigious institute.

Individuals aspiring for a permanent government position should not apply, as this is a purely temporary, project-based contract with no claim to regularization. Applicants without the specified postgraduate qualifications or relevant laboratory and fieldwork experience will not be considered. Those unwilling to travel for sampling or participate in project coordination activities may find this role unsuitable.

Working at the ICAR-Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI), a renowned institution, offers significant prestige and a valuable opportunity to contribute to a critical ICMR-National One Health Mission project. While the position is temporary (extendable up to three years), it provides excellent exposure to cutting-edge research in zoonotic diseases and enhances a researcher's profile. This experience can be a strong foundation for future academic or research careers, particularly within the public health and veterinary science domains.
