MAHARSHI DAYANAND UNIVERSITY, ROHTAK RECRUITMENT 2026: Field Investigators (4 Vacancies)

This role is ideal for fresh post-graduates in Social Sciences (minimum 55% marks) looking for temporary, project-based research experience. Candidates with strong communication skills, an aptitude for data collection, and meticulous record-keeping will thrive. It offers a valuable opportunity to contribute to a significant ICSSR research project on women's career progression in Haryana, making it suitable for those passionate about social research and fieldwork.

Individuals seeking permanent employment, high remuneration, or career progression within a traditional structure should not apply, as this is a temporary, consolidated-pay position co-terminus with the project duration. Those unable to commit to fieldwork, data entry, and survey administration, or unwilling to work within a specific project timeline, will find this role unsuitable. No TA/DA is provided for the interview, which might be a dealbreaker for out-station candidates.

Maharshi Dayanand University, an 'A+' NAAC accredited State University, offers a respectable institutional environment. While the Field Investigator role is temporary and project-based, it provides exposure to an ICSSR-Major Research Project, enhancing a researcher's portfolio. The experience gained in data collection and research methodology under a reputed university can be beneficial for future academic or research-oriented careers, particularly for those starting in the field of social sciences.
