This opportunity is ideal for highly qualified researchers holding a PhD or Master's/M.Phil degree in Social Sciences, Demography, Statistics, or Public Health, with a proven track record in social research and national level sample surveys.

It offers a chance to work on a significant national project (GATS-3) under a prestigious institution.

Those without a relevant PhD or M.Phil/Master's with one year of experience in the specified fields, or lacking proficiency in statistical software, will not meet the essential criteria. Candidates requiring TA/DA for the interview should also note that it will not be provided.

Working with the International Institute for Population Sciences (IIPS), a Deemed to be University under the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, offers significant institutional prestige. Although the positions are temporary, involvement in the Global Adult Tobacco Survey (GATS-3) project provides valuable experience in national-level research, enhancing career prospects in public health and social research domains.
