About Walk-in Recruitment of JRF at IIRS – www.iirs.gov.in , ISRO – Nov 2015 :
Indian Institute of Remote Sensing (IIRS), – www.iirs.gov.in – a unit of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), is a premier institute for capacity building and research in the field of remote sensing and geoinformatics. The Institute has a multi-disciplinary and problem oriented research agenda focusing on developing land-ocean atmosphere applications and understanding Earth’s surface and subsurface processes using primarily the space-based technologies. The research programmes are intricately linked to overall goal of ISRO towards operationalization of spacebased services for national development.
