The Centre for Earth Sciences and Himalayan Studies (CESHS),

established under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of
Arunachal Pradesh, isan autonomous organization headquartered in Itanagar.
CESHS objectives are: (a) Conduct scientfic research on Earth System Dynamics.
hydrological processes, and Earth's Critical Zone, focusing on understanding
environmental impacts and enhancing knowledge of earth sciences. (b) Strengthen
seismological observation systems for earthquake-related studies. including
seismic hazard assessment and microzonation, and identify mineral-rich areas for
scientific exploration. (C) Disseminate earth science knowledge through
publications, workshops, and training programs, while inspiring and encouraging
young scientists to study the geology of the imalayas.
In addition to the above objectives, the center focuses on key areas:
Geosciences, Climatology, Cryosphere, River management and modelling, and
Green Energy, among other related fields. As a quasi-directorate, CES&HS aims to
strengthen Research & Development (R&D) activities in the Eastern Himalayan
region, specifically emphasizing geoscience studies. The Centre strives for
excellence in geoscience research, offering benefits such as effective resource
management, Sustainable utilization of natural resources, and environmental
protection.
Of late, CESHS has initiated a feasibility study of geothermal energy and its
scope in developing capability for geothermal energy management in the state.
Geothermal energy is green energy and has no pollution and impact on the
environmental condition of the area, thus centre has paid special attention to
implementing the said project, Arunachal geology is very suitable for exploring
geothermal resources.
Director, CESHS invites applications from eligible and prospective
candidates of Indian National for filling up the following position under the scientific
project - Project entitled "Delineation and Assessment of Geothermal Resources
Potential in Arunachal Pradesh as an alternate energy resource" funded by Ministry
of Earth Sciences (MoES), Government of India, New Delhi. The position is project
