NIT Uttarakhand Counsellor Recruitment 2026: Overview

National Institute of Technology Uttarakhand (NIT Uttarakhand) is hiring a Counsellor for its Student Welfare Section at the Srinagar campus in Garhwal. The institute offers undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programmes across technology, sciences and English, placing this role within a campus that combines academic study, research and co-curricular activities. You would join on a full-time contract to support counselling work in this student welfare setting.

Service Conditions and Caveats

  • Contract period: The appointment runs for 1 year from the date you join. It is temporary, and completing the contract does not give you a right to continued employment or a permanent institute post.
  • Termination condition: The declaration attached to the application allows the competent authority to end the contract without notice during its term. Read this condition carefully before signing the form and accepting the engagement.
  • Joining: The selected person must be ready to join immediately. Consider your availability and any current work commitments when deciding whether you can take up the campus assignment.
  • Reporting arrangement: The institute may assign additional work from the Student Welfare Section. For those assignments, you will report to the Dean, Student Welfare.
  • Reservation: Government of India reservation rules apply. The institute also keeps the option to change the number of posts or leave the position unfilled if it does not find a suitable person.
  • Travel costs: You must attend the campus interview at your own expense. Plan your journey to Srinagar, Garhwal, with the reporting requirement in mind.
  • Recruitment decisions: The competent authority's decision is final. The institute may reject an application without providing a reason, and recruitment disputes fall within the jurisdiction of District Pauri Garhwal.
  • Application declaration: By signing the form, you confirm that the information you provide is correct and that you understand the temporary nature of the engagement.
  • Further updates: Any later correction or addition will appear on the institute website. Check those updates as you prepare for the campus visit.
