The academic and research standards follow the applicable UGC rules, with AICTE provisions used where the discipline requires them.

The notice combines senior faculty needs across established and specialised departments. SGGU is looking for applicants who can contribute beyond classroom teaching through research leadership, doctoral supervision, curriculum work and academic administration.

• Associate Professor: Mid-senior faculty roles cover Sociology, Economics, Sanskrit, Hindi, Botany, Psychology, Microbiology, Biotechnology, Computer Science, Mathematics, Pharmacy and History.
• Reserved seats: The discipline tables identify seats for SC, ST, SEBC, EWS, women and persons with benchmark disabilities; apply only against a post and category for which your certificates are valid.

Post-wise Duties

Professor

You will provide academic and research leadership in your department, guide doctoral work, mentor faculty and help shape teaching and research priorities. The role also calls for a strong publication record and the ability to lead sponsored research, consultancy or other professional activity relevant to the discipline.

Associate Professor

You will teach advanced courses, supervise student research and contribute to departmental planning and curriculum delivery. You may also develop research proposals, publish scholarly work, support accreditation activity and share academic-administration responsibilities.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Governing standards: Appointments follow the Gujarat Public Universities Act, the Gujarat Public Universities Uniform Statutes and applicable UGC or AICTE rules.
• Shortlisting: Meeting the minimum standard does not guarantee an interview; SGGU may shortlist using higher qualifications and experience.
• Interview travel: The university will not pay TA or DA to applicants called for a personal interview.
• Current employees: Applicants already in service need a No Objection Certificate and should route the hard copy through the proper channel as applicable.
• Reservation evidence: SEBC and other reserved-category claims need certificates in the Gujarat Government format; the required non-creamy-layer certificate must be valid for the current financial year.
• Updates: Amendments and interview communication will appear on the university website or reach shortlisted applicants through the stated contact channels.
