Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

The Medical Officer serves at the Health Centre on the TISS Deonar campus in Mumbai. Core responsibilities include managing nocturnal outpatient consultations, handling acute medical emergencies for residential students and campus staff, primary trauma care, stabilizing critical patients, liaising with local ambulance services for tertiary transfers, and issuing emergency pharmaceutical supplies. The role involves 12-hour night shifts and holiday duty scheduled 4 to 5 times per week. The health centre operates with dedicated nursing staff and emergency support.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

Engagement is purely temporary on a contract basis for an initial duration not exceeding one year, extendable subject to satisfactory performance and institutional requirements. The position carries no claim or entitlement to permanent regularization or absorption into regular central government / UGC pay scales.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

Contractual campus medical officer positions do not have internal promotional ladders; however, one to two years of high-volume emergency and primary healthcare experience at an autonomous central university health centre serves as valuable clinical experience when applying for permanent UPSC Combined Medical Services (CMS), ESIC Medical Officer, or State Public Service Commission civil surgeon positions.
Crucial Application Warnings & Eligibility Traps

Avoid common application rejection triggers, photo/signature guidelines, and certificate validity windows.

  • Strict Offline Interview Policy: Personal Interaction will be conducted strictly in-person at TISS Mumbai. Requests for virtual/online interviews are explicitly denied.
  • Short Joining Timeline: The selected doctor must be ready to report and join duty within 15 days of the selection offer.
