INDIAN INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE EDUCATION AND RESEARCH PUNE, 2026, 01 Vacancy, Teaching Assistant

This role is ideal for postgraduates in Science, Mathematics, or Education seeking temporary, contractual engagement in academic research and teaching support. Candidates with prior experience in education research, evidenced by a thesis project, and familiarity with cognitive/learning sciences literature will be highly preferred. It suits individuals looking for short-term academic exposure and contribution to course development within a prestigious institution.

Those seeking permanent government employment or roles with long-term tenure should not apply, as this is a purely temporary and contractual position expiring by May 15, 2026 (subject to extension). Candidates who do not meet the minimum educational qualifications (Master's degree) or exceed the age limit of 28 years as of the interview date will not be considered. Individuals unwilling to attend a walk-in interview in Pune without TA/DA should also reconsider.

IISER Pune is a premier Institute of National Importance, offering a valuable opportunity to work within a highly reputable academic research environment. While the role itself is temporary and contractual, it provides excellent exposure to a prestigious central government autonomous institution, which can significantly enhance one's academic profile and future career prospects in research and education.
