Sector -25 Gandhinagar,
Gujarat
Career Opportunities for candidates having an attitude for achievements and a flair for Scientific Research
International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) is an experimental fusion reactor being constructed at Cadarache, France under an international partnership agreement.
After a construction period of about 10 years, ITER aims to demonstrate feasibility of controlled generation of fusion energy and generate new results in burning plasma experiments over the next thirty years, charting a new frontier in fusion science and technology.
India as a participating country will contribute one tenth of the equipments to the project and aims to develop new technologies for fusion energy.
ITER-lndia is a specially empowered program in the Institute for Plasma Research, Gandhinagar, Gujarat State for the design, development, procurement and commissioning of some of the systems, which belong to India's share in ITER construction.
More information on the institute, the project and the technical description of the works can be found in the websites http://www.iter-india.res.in and http://www.iter.org http://www.iter.org
