Why This Recruitment Matters

With 138 posts spanning 54 subject specializations across Sciences, Humanities, Social Sciences, Engineering, and interdisciplinary fields, this is a large-scale contractual teaching recruitment drive for NET/SET/PhD qualified candidates in North Maharashtra. For early-career academics, particularly those holding fresh NET/SET/PhD qualifications, this offers a structured entry point into university-level teaching with the possibility of renewal for subsequent academic years based on performance.

Understanding the Multi-Campus Structure

This recruitment spans not just KBCNMU’s main university schools and departments in Jalgaon, but also its conducted Science and Commerce College at Molgi (Nandurbar district) and the Tribal Academy at Nandurbar — reflecting the university’s mandate to extend quality higher education to tribal and remote areas of North Maharashtra. Candidates should carefully note which institution their applied post (ASPUC code) belongs to, since postings for Molgi and Nandurbar differ from the main Jalgaon campus.
