Sambalpur University 2026 Walk-in Interview for 1 Project Fellow Post

This role is ideal for individuals holding an M.Sc. in Chemistry with at least 55% marks who are seeking a temporary, research-oriented position. It suits those interested in contributing to R&D projects in biotechnology, specifically in the development of peptide-based membrane fusion inhibitors as antiviral agents. Candidates looking to gain initial research experience within a state university environment will find this opportunity valuable, provided they can attend an in-person walk-in interview in Sambalpur, Odisha.

Candidates seeking permanent employment or a role with HRA benefits will find this temporary, consolidated-emolument position unsuitable. Individuals without an M.Sc. in Chemistry or those who cannot meet the minimum 55% marks requirement should not apply. Additionally, applicants unable to attend the walk-in interview on the specified date and time in Sambalpur will not be considered.

Working as a Project Fellow at Sambalpur University, a recognized state institution, offers a solid foundation in academic research. While the position is temporary (one year tenure), it provides exposure to government-sponsored R&D projects in a cutting-edge field (biotechnology/antiviral research). This experience can significantly enhance one's resume for future research or academic roles, acting as a stepping stone for early-career researchers looking to establish their profile.
