The Indian Academy of Sciences (IASc), along with the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) and The National Academy of Sciences, India (NASI), has invited applications for the Summer Research Fellowship Program 2027. The programme offers undergraduate, postgraduate and integrated programme students, as well as college and university teachers, a fully funded summer research placement under leading scientists. Applications must be submitted online by 30 November 2026.

Eligible students include those in BS/BSc second year, BE/BTech second and third year, and first year of postgraduate and integrated programmes, among others. Applicants must have an average of at least 65% marks in core subjects from Class X onward. Teachers must be currently teaching at a recognised college or university and are exempt from the minimum marks requirement. PhD students are not eligible.
Separately, INSA has also advertised 8 contractual posts, including Assistant (Publications), Project Associate and System & Network Support Engineer, based in New Delhi. Candidates must email their applications by 21 November 2026 at 6.00 p.m.
Both sources provide uniform straight reporting on two separate INSA-related opportunities. Global South Opportunities details the Summer Research Fellowship Program 2027, including eligibility, application materials and the 30 November deadline. FreeJobAlert covers a separate INSA recruitment drive for 8 contractual posts with a 21 November deadline. Neither source adopts any editorial stance. The coverage is identical in its neutral, information-heavy format. The key distinction for readers is that the two programmes have different application processes, deadlines and target audiences, one for students and teachers seeking research fellowships, the other for job applicants for administrative and technical roles.
