DUK Project Intern Recruitment 2026: Overview
Kerala University of Digital Sciences, Innovation and Technology (DUK) is hiring a Project Intern for its Social Engagement Centre (SEC). The engagement is contractual and sits within the university's community-facing work. A notable part of the opportunity is the centre's focus on research exposure, including research methods and work connected with funded projects.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Initial tenure: The appointment runs for one year. Any continuation depends on your performance and the needs of the project, so you should treat an extension as conditional rather than automatic.
- Probation: The initial engagement includes three months of probation. The notice links continuation to performance and the university's requirements.
- Local attendance: The university will hold its test or interview only in Thiruvananthapuram district. Keep this location in mind when deciding whether you can attend an in-person call.
- Email communication: The university will send your schedule only to the email address registered with your application. Check that inbox regularly after applications close so that you do not miss its message.
- Claims in your form: Put every relevant claim in the matching application field. The university says it will not consider details that you did not claim there, or accept later changes to the information you entered.
- Provisional appointment: The university initially relies on the information you provide. Your appointment remains provisional until it checks that information, and false statements or withheld facts can lead to cancellation or termination.
- University discretion: DUK can cancel this advertisement or the recruitment process. Its decision on ambiguities in the process is final, and canvassing can lead to disqualification.
- Queries: The notice says that interim queries after you apply will not be entertained. Keep your registered email available for communication from the university.
