Candidates should possess a minimum of two years of experience in research, teaching, or extension education and have published at least two papers in recognized journals. This is best suited for those seeking a temporary, contractual academic position to gain valuable experience in a state agricultural university setting.

Candidates unwilling to accept a lower fixed remuneration for Master's degree without NET/SLET/SET should also consider other options.

While this specific role is temporary, it provides an excellent opportunity to contribute to a respected institution, enhance academic credentials, and build a strong professional network.
