NIPER Guwahati Project Scientist Recruitment 2026: 2 Vacancies for Research Professionals

This role is ideally suited for highly qualified research professionals holding a Post Graduate Degree, Pharm.D, or Ph.D. in specialized pharmaceutical and health sciences fields. Candidates with significant post-qualification experience in teaching, research, or industry, particularly those with expertise in systematic reviews, meta-analysis, and evidence synthesis (GRADE approach), are strongly encouraged to apply. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals seeking project-based research work within a national institute.

Applicants seeking permanent government employment should note that these are temporary, contractual project positions (initially for one year) and do not guarantee regularization. Individuals without the specified post-qualification experience or who exceed the maximum age limits (45 for PS-III, 40 for PS-II as on 06.05.2026) for their respective roles will not be suitable. Those unfamiliar with online application processes or who cannot provide scanned supporting documents should also reconsider.

NIPER Guwahati, an autonomous institute of national importance under the Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilizers, Government of India, offers a prestigious platform for research in pharmaceutical sciences. Working on projects like the 'Technical Resource Hub under the Centre for Evidence-Based Guidelines,' sponsored by the Department of Health Research, provides significant exposure and contributes to national health initiatives. While contractual, the institutional affiliation and project's scope offer strong professional recognition and valuable networking opportunities for career advancement in research and academia.
