Tezpur University Asst. Prof. & Guest Faculty Recruitment 2026

This role is ideal for candidates holding a Ph.D. or an equivalent Master's/Bachelor's combination in Design or related engineering/arts fields, coupled with a minimum of two years of professional design experience. It suits individuals aspiring for contractual teaching and research roles within a Central University setup, especially those looking for a stepping stone into academic positions or seeking to contribute specialized expertise. Candidates with expertise in areas like Interaction Design, Product Design, Visual Communication, and Human Factors Engineering are particularly well-suited.

Candidates lacking the specified Ph.D. or the combined Master's and Bachelor's degree in the required design, engineering, or arts disciplines should not apply. Individuals seeking permanent government employment immediately or expecting comprehensive allowances beyond the fixed monthly emolument may find these contractual and temporary positions unsuitable. Those without the mandatory two years of professional design experience will not be considered.

Tezpur University, as a Central University, offers a respectable academic environment and opportunities for research and teaching. While these positions are contractual and temporary (11 months or until regular vacancies are filled), they provide valuable experience in a Central University setting. This can significantly enhance an individual's academic profile and serve as a strong foundation for future applications for permanent faculty positions in similar institutions. The roles offer exposure to a respected academic community and contribute to a specialized Department of Design.
