IIT Indore IPR Multi Post Recruitment 2026: Overview

Indian Institute of Technology Indore (IIT Indore) is hiring a Research Assistant and Project Assistant for its R&D Section under the DPIIT-IPR Chair. The Chair operates under the Scheme for Pedagogy and Research in IPRs for Holistic Education and Academia (SPRIHA), with support from the Ministry of Commerce and Industry.

These contract assignments bring together intellectual property research and administrative support for the Chair. You would work within the same programme, but the research and office-support roles have distinct duties.

Posts and Disciplines

• Research Assistant: This role focuses on Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), legal research and the Chair's academic and outreach activities.
• Project Assistant: This role provides secretarial and administrative support, helping the Chair organise its office and programme activities.

Post-wise Duties

Research Assistant

You will help the Chair with legal, empirical and policy research, including collaborative work with universities, government departments, industry and other institutions in India and abroad. Your work also includes research papers, policy briefs, project proposals and progress reports.

You will help organise conferences, workshops and outreach programmes, and develop resources for IPR courses taught in person or through distance and online learning. Research databases and project records are also part of the assignment.

Project Assistant

You will provide secretarial support, keep office files, coordinate meetings and schedules, and handle official email. You will also assist with events, bills, reimbursements and hospitality while protecting the confidentiality of official records.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Initial tenure: The appointment runs initially for one year. Continuation depends on periodic performance reviews and continuation of the DPIIT-IPR Chair Scheme under SPRIHA norms.
• Joining: The institute expects selected applicants to join immediately. The notice describes the engagement as purely temporary.
• Travel costs: You will not receive travel or daily allowance for attending the interview.
• Tax and leave: Pay is taxable under the applicable rules. Leave follows existing guidelines, and unused leave cannot be encashed.
• Institute discretion: IIT Indore may leave a post unfilled or cancel it. It also reserves the option to revise pay, duties, qualifications or other requirements.
• Consideration: Meeting the basic qualification alone does not guarantee that you will be considered for the post.
