GNDU Junior Technician Recruitment 2026: Overview
Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar (GNDU) is recruiting a Junior Technician for its University Science and Instrumentation Centre (USIC) at the main campus. USIC supports scientific work through specialised instruments, so this is a hands-on technical role in a university research environment rather than a general office post. Experience with the HRTEM machine and related work is specifically noted, making the opening especially relevant to applicants who have already handled advanced laboratory equipment.
The post connects day-to-day instrument support with the needs of researchers, teachers and students. You should be comfortable following operating procedures, preparing equipment for use and keeping accurate service or usage records. The university is looking for someone who can work carefully around sophisticated systems and communicate clearly when an instrument needs maintenance or specialist attention. Punjabi knowledge at matric level is essential, reflecting the language requirement for this Group-C university post.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Campus placement: The appointment is in the University Science and Instrumentation Centre at GNDU's main campus in Amritsar, Punjab.
- Technical emphasis: The notice highlights experience in operating the HRTEM machine and work connected with it. Make that experience easy to identify in your supporting record if you have it.
- Language condition: Punjabi up to matric standard is compulsory. The recruitment also includes a separate Group-C Punjabi Language Test under university guidelines.
- Reserved-category claims: Applicants seeking a reserved post must attach a current Punjab domicile or residence certificate from the competent authority. SC, ST and PWD applicants from outside Punjab do not receive the reduced fee stated for Punjab applicants.
- Distance education: If your qualifying course was completed by distance or correspondence mode, you must support it with the session-specific territorial-jurisdiction or UGC-DEB approval certificate issued by the institution.
- Communication: Keep your personal email account active throughout the recruitment. GNDU may place updates on its website or send them by email, including to the spam folder.
- Incomplete records: The university can reject a form that is incomplete, unsigned, unsupported or received without the required online fee or printed application set.

The printed set should include self-attested degree and detailed marks certificate copies, with the CGPA or OGPA conversion formula wherever your results use grades.
