Project Research Scientist II

This role is ideally suited for highly qualified professionals holding a PhD or a Post-Graduate degree with at least three years of relevant post-qualification experience in Clinical Psychology, Social Work, Sociology, or Psychology. Candidates passionate about public health research, particularly those with expertise in addiction and working with high-risk groups, will find this a valuable opportunity to contribute to a significant government-funded project at a prestigious institution.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a purely contractual and temporary position with a fixed duration of nine months. Those lacking the specific academic qualifications (PhD or PG with 3+ years experience) or interest in the specialized research area (addiction, high-risk groups) will not be suitable for this role.

Working at AIIMS, a premier medical institution, offers significant prestige and exposure to high-impact research. While the role is project-based and temporary, it provides invaluable experience in a specialized research domain under a government-funded initiative. This can be an excellent stepping stone for researchers looking to build a portfolio in public health and addiction studies, though it does not offer long-term career stability within this specific project.
