Research Associate

This role is ideal for highly qualified individuals holding a Master's or Ph.D. in Agriculture or IPR, with significant research experience (at least 3 years) and a keen interest in Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) management. Candidates should be self-driven, proficient in IPR portfolio management, and comfortable with project-based contractual employment. The walk-in interview format suits those ready for immediate engagement in a research environment.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a purely temporary, project-based position with no guarantee of absorption. Those without the specified Master's/Ph.D. qualifications or relevant research experience will not be considered. Individuals exceeding the age limit of 40 for men or 45 for women (before relaxations) are ineligible. Lack of preparedness for a walk-in interview with all required documents will lead to disqualification.

ICAR - Central Rice Research Institute is a prestigious national research institute under the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), offering a valuable opportunity to contribute to agricultural research and IPR management. While the position is contractual, it provides significant exposure to cutting-edge research and policy work, enhancing a professional's resume for future roles in government, academia, or industry.
