Research Associate

This role is ideal for highly qualified postgraduates (M.A. Mass Communication / M.Sc. Electronic Media or equivalent) with NET/M.Phil./Ph.D. and a minimum of two years of research experience. Candidates with a strong background in digital media, video production, and proficiency in Tamil, interested in temporary project-based work within a Central University setup, would be well-suited.

Individuals lacking the specified postgraduate degree with NET/M.Phil./Ph.D. or the mandatory two years of research/academic experience should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or unwilling to work on a purely temporary, project-specific basis will find this role unsuitable. Applicants without proficiency in Tamil may also face challenges during fieldwork.

Working as a Research Associate at a Central University like CUTN offers valuable experience and academic exposure within a reputable institution, contributing to a significant research project. While temporary, it can enhance one's research profile and open doors for future academic or research opportunities. The project's focus on digital literacy intervention provides a relevant and impactful scope for contributing to community development.
