Field Investigator

This role is ideal for postgraduates with a Master's Degree in Life Sciences (Zoology, Botany, Biology, or allied fields) who are enthusiastic about field-based research, ethnobiology, and tribal health. Candidates should be prepared to engage in documentation, digital mapping, and the integration of traditional knowledge with modern biomedical research within a project-based framework.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment or those without a Master's Degree in the specified Life Science disciplines should not apply. Individuals looking for a long-term, stable career path without project-based limitations may find this temporary role unsuitable.

The University of Kerala is a respected state university. This temporary project-based role offers valuable research experience in a niche area (tribal health and ethnobiology), which could be highly beneficial for those pursuing further academic or research careers. However, it does not offer the stability or long-term career progression typically associated with permanent government positions.
