Annamalai University Project Staff Recruitment 2026 - 3 Posts

Annamalai University’s Mining Engineering Programme has opened three temporary contractual positions for a CARD-NLC India Limited funded research project. The project is building an automated monitoring and defect-detection system for mining conveyor belts, with an emphasis on real-time data interpretation, reliable operation, and rapid alerts. All three posts belong to the same notice and application window, so this listing covers the complete project team recruitment.

The initial appointment is for one year. It can be extended for one additional year if performance is satisfactory and the project still needs the role. Applicants apply by email, after which only shortlisted people will receive the interview date and venue. The notice does not set an age limit, application fee, or written-exam pattern.
