Professor
The notice described an eminent-scholar route and an outstanding-professional route. Both included a relevant Ph.D. and ten years of experience. The eminent-scholar route required a substantial research record and evidence of doctoral guidance; the professional route required significant contribution supported by documentary evidence.
Associate Professor
The stated criteria included a relevant Ph.D., a master’s degree with at least 55% marks, eight years of relevant teaching or research experience, at least seven publications and a research score of 75 under the cited criteria.
Rank #3

- children pose and solve meaningful problems
Assistant Professor and Assistant Librarian
The general Assistant Professor route required a relevant master’s degree with at least 55% marks and NET, CSIR-NET or an accepted equivalent such as SLET/SET. The notice also described Ph.D.-based exemptions and exceptions, including for disciplines where NET/SLET/SET is not conducted. Requirements can depend on discipline and circumstances, so candidates needed to verify the exact notice and applicable rules for the post they sought.
