Anthropological Survey of India, as a part of its policy has extended facilities to young and promising scholars for carrying out research activities through its fellowship programme. These fellowships are tenurial and are distributed in different Regional/Sub-Regional Centres, including Head Office and Ranchi Field Station.
There are four categories of Fellowships, namely Junior Research Fellow, Senior Research Fellow, Post-Doctoral Fellow and Visiting Fellow. Presently about 45 researchers are involved in different research projects over wide areas of interest. Most of them were given hands-on training for about six months in the areas of their interest and were asked to take up projects, with every possible support from the Survey.
All Research Fellows are being encouraged to register themselves for Ph.D. About twenty research fellows are presently working among the Angami Naga of Viswema and Jakama villages of Kohima district of Nagaland, in a path breaking project, namely, “Growth and development of children in North-East : A public health issue”.
