SU Guest Faculty Education Recruitment 2026

SU Guest Faculty Education Recruitment 2026: Overview

Sambalpur University (SU) is engaging Guest Faculty at Assistant Professor level for its M.A. Education programme. The work is based in the Department of Education at Jyoti Vihar, Burla. This is a temporary teaching arrangement against vacant faculty posts, with continuation linked to the university's staffing needs and your performance.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• End of engagement: Your appointment can continue up to 31 December 2026, or end earlier if the university fills the vacancy through regular recruitment. This is the tenure limit, not the application deadline.
• Performance review: The university reviews your work quarterly. Continued engagement depends on satisfactory performance at these reviews.
• No claim to another appointment: Working under this arrangement does not give you a right to a regular, contractual or ad hoc appointment at the university.
• Leave: The notice allows guest faculty ten days of leave in a year.
• Tax responsibility: You are responsible for applicable statutory taxes. The university deducts tax at source and other statutory deductions from payments where required.
• Academic events: Conference, seminar and workshop activities need a co-organizer from the university or college. These activities must not create a financial commitment for the university.
• Research supervision: Research and doctoral co-guidance depend on your qualifications and experience. Sponsored research must follow the relevant funding agency's rules.
• Administrative caveat: The duty conditions exclude holding administrative or financial responsibility. The honorarium table separately mentions administrative assignments after the monthly teaching threshold; ask the department how these provisions apply to your work.
