Cochin University of Science and Technology 2026 Recruitment: Assistant Professor (Contract) - 1 Vacancy

This role is ideal for highly qualified legal scholars holding a Master's Degree in Law and either NET or a Ph.D, who are seeking a contractual academic position focused on research ethics and protocols. Candidates should be well-versed in UGC Regulations 2018 and prepared for an initial one-year term with potential for extension within a university setting.

Individuals without a Master's Degree in Law, or those who lack a NET qualification or a Ph.D, will not meet the essential eligibility criteria. Furthermore, applicants primarily seeking permanent employment or roles with extensive administrative responsibilities may find this specific contractual, research-oriented faculty position less aligned with their career goals.

Cochin University of Science and Technology (CUSAT) is a respected state university, offering a strong academic environment. A position as Assistant Professor, especially within a specialized interdisciplinary center like ICREP, carries significant academic prestige and provides valuable opportunities for contribution to research. While the role is initially contractual, consistent performance can lead to extensions, offering a pathway for academic career progression within a recognized Indian institution.
