SKUAST Jammu DST Project Posts Recruitment 2026: Overview
Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Jammu (SKUAST Jammu) is recruiting project staff for a study supported by the Department of Science and Technology (DST). The project focuses on documenting, reviving and upscaling indigenous knowledge systems for scientific development in the PirPanjal and Shivalik ranges of Jammu and Kashmir.
The notice brings together Project Associate-I and Scientific Administrative Assistant/Field Worker roles under this project. If you are considering the opportunity, keep the project setting in mind: the engagement is linked to indigenous knowledge and its scientific development, with the university's Directorate of Research hosting the walk-in.
Posts and Disciplines
- Project Associate-I: The research associate role is part of the DST-funded indigenous knowledge project. The notice identifies this as a separate position within the project team.
- Scientific Administrative Assistant/Field Worker: This is the combined role title used in the advertisement. It belongs to the same project and walk-in notice, so you should read its separate entry alongside the Project Associate-I entry.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Project engagement: Both roles are offered for six months, up to March 2027. You should plan around the stated project period when considering either role.
- Shared project: The research theme covers the PirPanjal and Shivalik ranges of Jammu and Kashmir. The notice places both positions within that same DST-funded study.
Application Submission Notes
The walk-in venue is the Directorate of Research, SKUAST Jammu, Main Campus Chatha, and the stated time is 11:00 AM. The university's recruitment page also provides an application form beside this project's advertisement.
