Brief Background about CKMNT and Nature of Job Responsibiities
Establishment of CKMNT: CKMNT is a time-bound project partially sponsored by Nano Mission of Department of Science and Technology (DST), Govt, of India and operated by the International Advanced Research Centre for Powder Metallurgy and New Materials (ARCI) in Hyderabad. It was established on 1st April 2009 and the project tenure is five years (i.e., upto April 2014).
CKMNT's Objective: The setting up of CKMNT was driven by the increasing need for an institutionalized knowledge management framework capable of creating, maintaining, categorizing and analyzing the vast nanoscience and nanotechnology related data resulting from the explosive growth in knowledge being generated and information being shared. CKMNT has set for itself the ambitious goal of becoming the one-stop information resource centre for the entire "nano" community and be a window to the rapid progress that is taking place in the field. Consistent with this goal, CKMNT seeks to offer a host of services that would appropriately meet the diverse requirements of researchers, industries, policy makers, financial institutions and venture capitalists with a stake in "nano" and thus help in fulfilling the objectives of DST's NANO MISSION.
Job Profile @ CKMNT: Recruiting the "right" team to achieve the above objectives of Project CKMNT has been challenging. Based on our previous recruitment efforts, it is deemed appropriate to provide some insight into the envisaged responsibilities/work content for the posts of Senior Knowledge Officer and Project Knowledge Fellow advertised above. It is emphasized that the expected job profile for the above posts does not involve any laboratory work or participation in "R&D projects" in the area of nanoscience & technology, either at CKMNT or at ARCI. Instead, it provides exciting possibilities to embark on a career in knowledge management related to a rapidly growing field having wide-ranging applications. It is expected that the selected Senior Knowledge Officers/Project Knowledge Fellows will actively participate in in-depth topical analysis of nanoscience and nanotechnology developments using advanced commercially available online patent, literature and business-related databases available at CKMNT to generate on-demand, value-added techno-commercial reports, market resaerch reports, white papers, policy documents etc. They would also assist in creation and management of CKMNT's own databases. In additio, the selected candidates would be expected to regularly contribute in compining the quarterly newsletter, "Nanotech Insights", thet the center already publishes. Thus, the envisaged work content can be extremely challenging as well as rewarding for persons with sound technical background, analytical acumen and a flair for writing. Aspiring candidates are advised to keep the above in mind while applying for the above posts.
