# IIT Hyderabad seeks Project Associate for ANRF project 2026-11-06T22:06:49+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Department of Mathematics at IIT Hyderabad has invited applications for one post of Project Associate, I on a contractual basis until 15 October 2027. The position is part of an Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF)-funded project on sequences and bigraded Betti numbers, led by Dr Neeraj Kumar. Candidates with an M.Sc. or Integrated M.Sc. in Mathematics, a four-year Bachelor's degree in Mathematics, or an equivalent degree are eligible. Pay is ₹37,000 plus 30% HRA per month for those who have cleared NET, GATE or a national-level exam, and ₹30,000 plus 30% HRA per month for others. Applications must be sent by email to [email protected]. The position is reviewed on a rolling basis until filled. The official notification does not specify an age limit or application fee. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The notification fills one research post under an ANRF grant, indicating targeted recruitment for a specific mathematics project. Candidates without NET or GATE will draw ₹7,000 less per month, creating a two-tier pay structure within the same role. The rolling application deadline leaves the timeline open-ended, putting the onus on applicants to apply early. The absence of a published age limit or fee in the official notice leaves those details unresolved for prospective candidates. ## Coverage - freejobalert.com Straight listing of eligibility, pay, and application process with no editorial framing This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
