MPBOU Faculty Recruitment 2026: Overview

Madhya Pradesh Bhoj (Open) University (MPBOU) is recruiting regular Professors, Associate Professors and Assistant Professors in Bhopal under advertisement 748/MPBOU/2026. The notice brings together teaching opportunities across sciences, humanities, social sciences, professional studies and education. You should match both the academic rank and the subject in the notice when choosing the post for which you apply.

Posts and Disciplines

  • Professor: Senior faculty roles are listed in Education, Political Science and Special Education.
  • Associate Professor: These roles cover Education, Sociology and Special Education.
  • Assistant Professor, sciences: Subjects include Botany, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics and Zoology.
  • Assistant Professor, computing: Computer Science and Information Technology appear as separate subjects in the notice.
  • Assistant Professor, humanities and social sciences: The drive covers Economics, English, Geography, Hindi, History, Political Science and Sociology.
  • Assistant Professor, professional studies: Commerce, Education, Journalism and Mass Communication, and Management are also included.

Post-wise Duties

Professor

As a Professor, your work would generally combine subject leadership, advanced teaching and research supervision. You would help guide academic work in your discipline and support the development of teaching and research within the university.

Associate Professor

As an Associate Professor, you would generally combine teaching with research, academic mentoring and course-related work. This role sits between the university’s early-career teaching posts and its senior subject leadership.

Assistant Professor

As an Assistant Professor, you would generally teach your subject, develop learning material, assess student work and build your research record. These are broad faculty-role descriptions; the notice concentrates on appointment conditions rather than a detailed daily duty list.

Service Conditions and Caveats

  • State reservation rules: Reservation and related concessions follow Madhya Pradesh rules. The notice restricts these benefits to applicants with Madhya Pradesh domicile. Reserved-category applicants from other states are treated as unreserved under the stated rules.
  • Horizontal reservation: The subject table marks posts reserved for women. Disability reservation also applies across faculty ranks under the state’s guidelines; the relevant rank and disability category matter when you choose a post.
  • Serving applicants: Apply through your employer’s proper channel if you already hold a job. You may send an advance copy directly, subject to the employer-clearance requirement at the interview.
  • Application completeness: The university will not accept additional papers after the closing date to complete an unfinished submission. You are responsible for ensuring that the application reaches the university in time.
  • Changes to the recruitment: The university may change the number of posts or leave posts unfilled. It also reserves the right to correct, withdraw or cancel communications if an error is discovered during the process.
  • Accuracy of claims: The university may check your credentials before appointment or during service. False records or concealed information can lead to cancellation of candidature or termination.
  • Updates and contact details: Recruitment updates will appear on the university website. Inform the Registrar in writing if your correspondence address, mobile number or email changes.
  • Interview travel: Outstation SC/ST applicants with Madhya Pradesh domicile can receive travel allowance under the notice. This does not apply to those employed in government, semi-government or autonomous bodies.
