Research Associate

This role is ideal for highly qualified individuals holding a Ph.D. in Chemistry, Materials Chemistry, or Physics, with a proven research track record demonstrated by at least one publication in a Science Citation Index (SCI) Journal. Candidates who have submitted their Ph.D. thesis but are awaiting defense are also encouraged to apply for the provisional position. It suits those seeking a temporary, research-intensive position within a prestigious autonomous institution under the Government of India, focusing on advanced scientific research in areas like materials synthesis, crystallography, and magnetic data analysis.

Individuals without a Ph.D. in the specified disciplines or without published research in an SCI Journal should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position will find this 'temporary' role unsuitable. The single vacancy and highly specialized nature of the research may not appeal to candidates looking for broader opportunities or a high volume recruitment. Furthermore, candidates above 35 years of age are not eligible.

Jawaharlal Nehru Centre For Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) is a highly reputable institution deemed a university under the Department of Science and Technology, Govt. of India. A position here, even temporary, offers significant academic prestige and invaluable experience in cutting-edge research. It provides an excellent platform for career growth in academia and research, enhancing future prospects in national and international scientific communities.
