Guest Faculty & Assistant Professor

This role is ideal for academic professionals holding a Master's degree in History with a minimum of 55% marks, coupled with NET/SLET/SET qualification, or an exempted Ph.D. degree from a recognized Indian or top-ranked foreign university. Candidates specializing in Modern Indian History, and those with certificate/diploma courses in Archives and Records Management or Museology/Conservation, would be particularly well-suited. It targets individuals seeking contractual teaching engagements in a reputable university environment.

Individuals lacking the specified Master's degree in History or equivalent, or those who have not cleared NET/SLET/SET (unless explicitly exempted by a qualifying Ph.D.), should not apply. Those seeking permanent government employment or a fixed, high-scale salary may find the honorarium-based, contractual nature of this Guest Faculty position unsuitable.

Panjab University is a well-established and respected state university in India. While a Guest Faculty position is temporary and contractual, it offers valuable teaching experience and academic exposure within a prestigious institution. This role can enhance an academic's CV and provide a stepping stone for future, more permanent faculty positions, particularly in the domain of social sciences and history.
