Maharashtra Animal and Fishery Sciences University, College of Fishery Science Nagpur Recruitment 2026: 3 Vacancies for Senior Research Fellow and Other Posts

This opportunity is ideal for individuals with relevant academic backgrounds (Ph.D. or Post-graduate in Fisheries Science; Graduate in Commerce/Finance) and practical experience, particularly those seeking project-based, field-oriented work in fisheries and aquaculture development. Suitable for early to mid-career researchers and professionals who are adaptable to temporary assignments and willing to undertake out-station duties. Candidates interested in contributing to centrally-funded national projects under the Pradhan Mantri Matsya Kisan Samridhi Sah-Yojana should consider applying.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment or long-term career stability should not apply, as these posts are purely temporary and co-terminus with the project. Individuals unwilling to undertake significant field work or out-station duties will find this role unsuitable. Applicants expecting travel allowances (TA/DA) for the interview will be disappointed as none will be provided.

While the roles are temporary, they offer valuable exposure to a significant national project funded by the Government of India's Ministry of Fisheries. Working at the College of Fishery Science, part of a State Agricultural University, provides a platform for hands-on experience in a specialized scientific domain, enhancing professional networks within government departments and research institutions. It can serve as a stepping stone for future project-based roles or further academic/research pursuits.
