Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for dedicated and qualified M.Sc./M.Sc.(Ag) postgraduates with NET-CSIR/UGC/ICAR qualification in Plant Pathology, Biotechnology, Microbiology, or Life Science. Candidates with prior experience in plant pathogen research, molecular identification, and bioinformatics, particularly related to banana cultivars, will find this position highly suitable. It offers an opportunity to work on a specific research project at a Central University.

Individuals without the essential M.Sc./M.Sc.(Ag) degree with NET qualification in the specified fields should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or long-term career stability within a conventional framework may find the co-terminus nature of this project-based role unsuitable. Candidates unwilling to travel to Medziphema, Nagaland for the walk-in interview and for the tenure of the project should also reconsider.

Nagaland University, as a Central University, offers a respectable academic environment. While the Junior Research Fellow position is project-specific and temporary, it provides valuable research experience in a specialized field. This role can serve as a stepping stone for further academic pursuits (Ph.D.) or research careers, enhancing one's profile through direct involvement in a government-funded research project.
