TU Research Associate Recruitment 2026: Overview
Tezpur University (TU) is recruiting a Research Associate for a Department of Biotechnology (DBT) sponsored project in its Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology at Napaam, Assam. Led by Dr. Aditya Kumar, the project studies how to improve breeding and reproductive success in Monopterus cuchia. The appointment belongs to this specific research project and runs under its funding and continuation terms.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Initial term: your appointment starts with a six-month period or lasts until a further order, whichever comes first. It is a project appointment rather than a regular university position.
- Continuation: the university may extend the appointment if your performance is satisfactory. Any extension remains tied to the project, so the initial offer does not guarantee work beyond its stated term.
- Travel costs: the university will not pay travel or daily allowances for attending. Plan your travel with this condition in mind if you receive an invitation.
- University decision: meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee an invitation. The selection committee makes the final decision on whom to appoint.
Application Submission Notes
The notice names aditya@tezu.ernet.in as the email address for applications to the Principal Investigator and uses the Annexure-I application format attached to the PDF.
Shortlisted applicants receive arrangements by email, so use an address you can check and keep accessible throughout the process.
Attendance must be in person; the university will not hold online interviews. Wait for the university to communicate the venue and other arrangements rather than assuming an online option is available.
For notice-specific questions, the listed contact is Dr. Aditya Kumar, Department of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, Tezpur University, Napaam, Tezpur 784028, Assam, using the same email address.
