P.G. Department of Biotechnology, Berhampur University Project Assistant Recruitment 2026 (1 Vacancy)

This role is ideal for recent M.Sc. graduates in Biotechnology, Microbiology, or Life Sciences who are looking to gain research experience within a government-funded project. Candidates should be comfortable with a temporary, project-specific appointment and possess strong academic credentials (minimum 55% marks). It suits individuals eager to contribute to cutting-edge research on antibiotic persistence and collateral sensitivity.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or those who require a higher monthly remuneration might find this position unsuitable due to its contractual nature (2 years) and fixed consolidated fellowship of Rs. 12,000/-. Candidates unable to attend a walk-in interview on the specified date and venue, or those without the required M.Sc. qualification, should not apply.

Working as a Project Assistant at a state university like Berhampur University, particularly within a P.G. Department of Biotechnology on an OSHEC-funded project, offers valuable research exposure and institutional experience. While the position is temporary, it provides a strong foundation for future academic or research careers, particularly within the life sciences domain in India. This role can enhance a candidate's profile for Ph.D. admissions or further research grants.
