3. Essential and Desirable Qualifications : 

a) The candidate should have a Master’s degree (with a minimum of 55% marks or equivalent grade) in Chemistry/Solid State Physics from a UGC-recognized University.

b) The candidate should have good analytical skills.

c) Familiarity with either organic synthesis or cell culture will be preferred.

d) Understanding organic material characterization techniques is desirable.

e) Candidates with CSIR/UGC-NET/JEST/GATE are encouraged to apply.

4. Duration of the Project: 32 Months

5. Fellowship: As per DST norms, fellowship is ₹31,000/- p.m. plus HRA as permissible for JRF.
