TCIS (TIFR Centre for Interdisciplinary Sciences) Young Researcher Program (YRP) is for talented and interested research scientists who want to establish themselves in the forefront of science in India.

Applications for this program may be sent to TCIS year-round.

About the YRP:

  • It’s open to scientists who have no more than 2 years of postdoc experience.
  • Applicant must be in the forefront of research activities that overlap with activities in TCIS or able to start new areas in line with the theme of TCIS vision.
  • The program is also open to those postdoc fellows who are in TCIS and have received any other fellowship and are deemed to meet the criteria for joining TCIS under YRP.
  • TCIS will not provide any financial assistance towards the research or salary of the candidate besides what is given by the concerned national funding agency.
  • TCIS will only provide research infrastructure and an ambiance congenial to highly productive research output.
  • The candidate may guide a TCIS Doctoral student but a regular faculty member in TCIS must accept the responsibility of co-supervisor-ship, in view of the fixed-term nature of the YRP.
  • Researchers under this program are expected to work independently; collaboration with TCIS faculty members is natural and encouraged. They are also expected to take part in the TCIS teaching program.

Selection Process:

YRP selection procedure consists of the following steps:
