Project Assistant

This role is ideally suited for highly qualified postgraduate candidates holding M.E./M.Tech, MCA, or M.Sc. degrees in Computer Science, IT, Statistics, Mathematics, Physics, or Electronics, with a consistent first-class academic record. Candidates with prior relevant experience will be preferred and may receive age relaxation. The position is temporary and project-specific, perfect for individuals seeking short-term engagement with a prestigious national institute and an opportunity to contribute to advanced research.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a purely contractual and temporary position. Those without the specified postgraduate qualifications and a first-class academic record will not meet the essential eligibility criteria. The single vacancy and walk-in interview format mean competition may be high, and no TA/DA will be provided for travel.

The Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) is an Institute of National Importance under the Government of India, offering significant academic prestige. While the current role is contractual, it provides an excellent opportunity to work on a specialized project ('An Algebraic Study of Strategy Compositions') within a reputable institution, enhancing one's research profile and professional network. The tenure is initially till March 2027, with potential for extension based on performance and funding, indicating a possibility of longer-term engagement within a research-driven environment.
