NFSU Senior Project Associate Food Forensic 2026

NFSU Senior Project Associate Recruitment 2026: Overview

National Forensic Sciences University (NFSU), an Institution of National Importance under the Ministry of Home Affairs, needs a Senior Project Associate for its Characterization Study Project. The post sits in the university's Centre of Excellence in Food Forensic and Forensic Pharmacy (CoE-FF&FP) at the Gandhinagar campus in Gujarat. It is a purely temporary, full-time project engagement filled through a walk-in interview, so there is no online form to fill.

The role suits a postgraduate in chemistry, forensic chemistry, microbiology, biotechnology, food technology or forensic pharmacy who already has hands-on exposure to pharmacy and food forensics work. If you are looking for project experience at a national forensic university, this is a focused, short engagement worth a look.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Fixed pay: the pay is a consolidated, fixed amount for the project.

• Open applications: NFSU may accept applications at any time and may consider candidates with exceptional credentials even without an application.
• Employed candidates: bring a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from your current employer to the interview, if it applies to you.
