NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SIKKIM Guest/Temporary Faculty Position Recruitment 2026 for Civil Engineering

This role is ideal for highly qualified individuals holding a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering (specializing in Transportation Engineering) who have a strong academic record (first division in B.Tech and M.Tech). Preference will be given to candidates with prior teaching experience in CFTIs or other reputable educational institutions. It suits those looking for a temporary, eleven-month engagement in a serene, high-altitude location.

Candidates lacking a Ph.D. (or submission), those without a first division in their B.Tech and M.Tech, or those seeking a permanent position will find this role unsuitable. Applicants requiring guaranteed accommodation should also be aware that it might not be provided at the temporary campus. Individuals unwilling to work in a location with limited infrastructure and cold, wet weather conditions may also find it challenging.

As an Institute of National Importance under the Ministry of Education, NIT Sikkim offers a valuable opportunity to contribute to a central government institution, enhancing academic credentials. While the position is temporary (11 months/semester) and based at a temporary campus with limited infrastructure, it provides exposure to teaching and research in a nationally recognized institute, which can be beneficial for future career progression in academia.
