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.
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.
