IBSD Project Associate I Recruitment 2026: Overview

BRIC-Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development (BRIC-IBSD) is recruiting Project Associate-I staff for a Department of Biotechnology-funded study at Imphal, Manipur. The project studies microbial isolates from the North Eastern Regions and their ability to produce hemicellulolytic enzymes for generating prebiotics. Your appointment would be attached to this specific research project at the institute in Takyelpat.

Service Conditions and Caveats

  • Project-linked engagement: The appointment can run for three years or until the project finishes, whichever comes first. You should therefore plan around the project's duration when considering the role.
  • Temporary status: The position ends with the project. This is a research engagement tied to project funding and completion, with no promise of a continuing appointment after that work ends.
  • No claim to regular service: Taking this post does not give you a claim to a regular appointment at BRIC-IBSD, its branches or the Department of Biotechnology in New Delhi.
  • Travel costs: You must pay your own travel and daily expenses to attend the interview. The institute will not reimburse these costs.
  • Interim enquiries: The institute says it will not respond to interim queries. Use the advertisement's instructions when preparing your application.

Application Submission Notes

You can send a hardcopy to the Senior Administrative Officer, BRIC-Institute of Bioresources and Sustainable Development, Takyelpat, Imphal 795001, Manipur, or send a softcopy to ibsd.recruitment@gmail.com. The advertisement allows either submission route.

For a postal application, write the advertisement number, post applied for and project title clearly on the envelope. Address your application to the Senior Administrative Officer rather than to an individual research team member.

Give a valid mobile number and email address; the institute makes both compulsory. The application format is included in the notice, so use it to present your details consistently.
