The Research Associate (RA) is a key member of the Harvard Business School India Research Center’s research team, supporting faculty in developing case studies and course materials. Faculty lead each project, and the RA works closely with them and other researchers to produce high-quality teaching content for the HBS classroom. In addition to case development, the role includes contributing to case leads, supporting broader research projects, and the thoughtful application of AI tools.
The RA manages multiple projects at different stages, often working with evolving direction and incomplete information. The role requires ownership of timelines, drafts, and deliverables, along with the ability to incorporate feedback from faculty and peers to refine outputs.
The RA also ensures that all work meets HBS case-writing standards and develops familiarity with
pedagogical materials, including case studies, teaching notes, and course overviews.
