Junior Mentor

This role is ideal for recent Master's in Science or Bachelor's in Engineering graduates with a first-class degree, especially those with a background in Electronics, Life Sciences, or Physics. Candidates with at least one year of experience in teaching, research, or industry, particularly those involved in R&D, lab work, or startups, will be highly preferred. Individuals passionate about fostering innovation, guiding students in science projects, and comfortable with a contractual engagement are well-suited.

Candidates lacking a Master's degree in Science or a Bachelor's degree in Engineering (1st class), or those without the specified disciplinary backgrounds (Electronics, Life Sciences, Physics), should not apply. Individuals without at least one year of relevant experience, or those exceeding 30 years of age as of 25.09.2026, will not be eligible. This is a contractual position, so those seeking permanent government employment might find it unsuitable.

Working with the Birla Industrial and Technological Museum, a unit under the Ministry of Culture, Government of India, offers exposure to a reputable central government-affiliated institution. While the role is contractual, it provides valuable experience in promoting science and innovation among young students through 'Innovation Hubs,' potentially opening doors for future opportunities in research, education, or science communication sectors. The pay is consolidated, and the engagement is initially for one year, extendable based on performance and requirement.
