Significance of JRF for an Employed Library professional.

What is the Significance of JRF for an Employed Library professional?  

 As a working person will not be paid scholarship. So, in my view NET-JRF( Age limit 28 yr.)and NET (Lecturership only)   both have same value for an employed person.  Freinds , I want your take on this topic.....

JRF provide us the opportunity to involve fully in research work and also a status

I have same question:

If employed person pass out with NET(JRF) than he is eligible for Ph.D fellowship?

also how he can do Ph.D as a regular student or as a part time student?

 

Thanks

Yes,  he can only do Ph. D. as regular student when getting fellowship.

Simply, If you are employed and gor JRF, then consider the following

1. If your salary is less than the fellowship of JRF, give up your job and do lfull time PhD and get the fellowship.

2. If your salary is higher than the monthly fellowship of JRF, then JRF is valuless for you (the NET and JRF will be of equal value in such cases).

Note: If you are employed and join the PhD (as you got JRF), then you can not be entitled to get the fellowship and your salary both at a time. You can only opted for one.

Similar opinion. Thank you  Badan................. for this objective and Precise Answer.

 

Dear Abhishek,

 

What Mr. Badan said is ok, but i do have little different opinion regarding the above discussion. Employed library professionals with JRF can get one more mark during selection for Asst. professor post then a simple NET.

 

Regards,

 

Point to be noted . Thanks for adding ur valuable suggestion.

Its true that a person who works and get salary in LIS profession, JRF and Lecturership both are the same value.

But I think Mr. Badan Barman's opinion on this regard is quite justicable.

another person Mr Kshirod Das also said that " Employed library professionals with JRF can get one more mark during selection for Asst. professor post then a simple NET". I also agree.


In Assam NET and JRF holders are not eligible for any additional marks in the recruitment process.
This discussion was very fruitful. Got to know many points about NET-JRF.
