UAS Dharwad Senior Research Fellow (AICWIP Wheat) Recruitment 2026 — Walk-in

About this recruitment

The University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad (UAS Dharwad) is filling one post of Senior Research Fellow at the All India Co-ordinated Wheat Improvement Project (AICWIP), Dr. Sanjay Raja Ram Wheat Laboratory, Main Agricultural Research Station (MARS), Dharwad, through a walk-in interview on 28 November 2026. The work is at the DUS test centre for durum wheat, characterising durum wheat lines. The appointment is temporary, for 179 days or till the end of the scheme or project, or until government clarification on temporary appointments in schemes, whichever is earlier. It is terminable at any time without reason and confers no right to a permanent post.

This is a different post from the Project Assistant (Bio-fuel) walk-in on 23 November 2026 — different project, date, venue and pay — do not confuse the two walk-ins.
