ICMR-NIIRNCD Recruitment 2026: 02 Temporary Project Research Scientist-I & Technical Support Positions

This opportunity is ideal for Post Graduates in Public Health, Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Dental Sciences, or Population Sciences, especially those with research experience in oral cancer, NCDs, or community health. Graduates with 3 years of relevant post-qualification experience are also suitable for the Technical Support role. Candidates with hands-on experience in data analysis (SPSS/STATA/R), field coordination, and report writing, who are looking for temporary, project-based work within a prestigious government research institution, would be well-suited.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or roles with long-term job security should not apply, as these are purely temporary project positions with tenure initially for up to one year and terminable at any point. Those without the specified educational qualifications or the required 3 years of experience for the Technical Support role will not be considered. Candidates who cannot attend the walk-in interview in Jodhpur on the specified date will also be unable to apply.

Working with ICMR-NIIRNCD, a national institute under the Indian Council of Medical Research, offers significant prestige and exposure to high-impact public health research, particularly in non-communicable diseases. While the positions are temporary, they provide valuable experience in a central government research setting, which can enhance future career prospects in public health and research. The work contributes to a nationally relevant project on oral cancer screening in Rajasthan.
