Project Associate I

This role is ideal for postgraduates (M.Sc./M.Tech in Microbiology, Biotechnology, or Bioinformatics) with a first-class academic record. Candidates possessing desirable experience in NGS data analysis for microbial genomics will find themselves highly suitable. It suits individuals seeking temporary, project-based research opportunities within a reputable autonomous government institute.

Candidates looking for permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a temporary and contractual position. Individuals who do not meet the essential educational qualifications or are not comfortable with the stipend-based compensation model will find this role unsuitable.

As an autonomous institute under the Department of Science & Technology, MACS - Agharkar Research Institute offers a credible platform for scientific research. While the position is project-specific and temporary, it provides valuable exposure in the Bioenergy Group, which can enhance one's research profile and open doors for future academic or industry roles.
