IIM Kashipur Academic Assistant/Associate (Economics) Recruitment 2026

This role is ideally suited for highly motivated individuals with a strong academic background in Economics, possessing a Post-graduate degree (for Academic Assistant) or a Ph.D. (for Academic Associate). Candidates who thrive in a research-intensive environment and are eager to support faculty in teaching, research, and administrative tasks at a premier management institute should apply. Those seeking a contractual engagement with potential for annual renewal and valuable academic exposure will find this particularly rewarding.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment will find this contractual role unsuitable, as appointments are initially for one year and generally limited to three years. Candidates without the specified academic qualifications in Economics (e.g., Post-graduate with first class, or Ph.D. for respective roles) should not apply. Those primarily looking for a full-time teaching position may find the assistant/associate nature of the role does not align with their career goals.

Working at an Indian Institute of Management (IIM) offers significant prestige and a valuable addition to one's academic profile. This role provides excellent exposure to high-level research and pedagogy, facilitating professional development within the academic domain. While the positions are contractual, they offer a strong foundation for future academic or research careers, with opportunities to contribute meaningfully to a top-tier educational institution.
