Visiting Positions


Post-doctoral Program

The ISI Delhi Stat-Math Unit regularly hosts post-doctoral fellows for long term (usually one year) and short terms (three months) subject to availability of resources. We normally look for candidates whose areas of interests match or closely complement those of our faculty members. A list of faculty members and their research interests is available here.

These positions are typically for one year and may be extendable for one more year.

Along with it at least two recommendation letters including one from the thesis supervisor should also be sent. The recommenders should mail the letters directly to the address (head_smu (at) isid.ac.in) with the subject header “Reference letter for “. Short-listed candidates will be asked to give a seminar followed by an interaction with the faculty.

The selected candidates would be placed in Category I, II and III depending on the qualification and experience as per the DST OM No.SR/S9/Z-08/2018 dated 30 January 2019. For further details, please write to head_smu@isid.ac.in
