CSIR - Central Salt & Marine Chemicals Research Institute (CSIR-CSMCRI www.csmcri.res.in) is one of the premier constituent establishments of the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), which is an Autonomous Body under the Department of Scientific & Industrial Research (DSIR), Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India. CSIR-CSMCRI’s current major thrust areas of research include salt and marine chemicals, membrane-based desalination & separation processes, catalysis for marine-based organic chemicals, specialty inorganic materials, renewable energy, and waste-to-wealth creation processes. We also intensely carry out research on plant molecular biology & biotechnology with special emphasis on seaweeds, microalgae, and halophytes – their cultivation and downstream processing. We also indulge in marine environment/ecological studies and environmental impact assessment research. While working on these domains, we build human resources through S&T-led sustainable innovations that enhance the well-being of the society and nation at large. The institute has a field station – Marine Algal Research Station (MARS) at Mandapam, Tamil Nadu. The Vision of the Institute is to “Explore, harness and transform marine resources for the good of the people of India” with a laid down mission in three verticals, namely Marine Products & Processes, Marine Biology, and Marine Environment. For specific details about the ongoing research activities of the institute, please see https://www.csmcri.res.in/r-and-d

The institute has an excellent State-ofthe-Art accessible Centralized Instrumentation Facility that houses more than 40 sophisticated instruments for carrying out research. The institute has a good Knowledge Resource Centre that offers both physical and digital resources like journals, patents, database, software applications, etc. The institute has accommodation facilities, hostel facilities for research scholars, and IT services at both institutes and colonies with diverse demographic ambiance. Applications are invited from enthusiastic, young Indian researchers having excellent academic record and proven scientific achievements with requisite experience and a high degree of motivation and desire to take up Research/S&T Management as a career to fill up the vacancy of following posts of scientists as per the details given below:-
