SPU IICISST Assistant Professor Recruitment 2026

SPU IICISST Assistant Professor Recruitment 2026: Overview

Sardar Patel University (SPU) is holding a walk-in recruitment for Adhoc Assistant Professor or Temporary Teaching Assistant appointments in its self-financed P.G. Department of Applied and Interdisciplinary Sciences (IICISST). The openings span artificial intelligence, machine learning, bioinformatics and chemistry, bringing computing, life-science data and laboratory teaching into one interdisciplinary department. The grade offered depends on whether you meet the Assistant Professor standard or the Teaching Assistant standard.

The department needs teachers who can work with specialised postgraduate programmes rather than a general foundation course. You may teach technical concepts, guide practical or laboratory work, help students connect theory with applications and support the academic routine of the programme. The assignment is useful for applicants who want university teaching exposure in a focused, self-financed department.

SPU has grouped the disciplines under one advertisement and one interview session. You should match your academic background to the correct specialisation and present the records that support that match. For the Assistant Professor level, the notification applies the relevant national eligibility-test or Ph.D. conditions and also recognises the stated exemptions.

Posts and Disciplines

• Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: Teach and support a postgraduate programme drawing from Computer Science, Information Technology, AI and ML.
• Bioinformatics: Work with the interdisciplinary programme at the meeting point of Bioinformatics and Computer Science.
• Advanced Organic Chemistry: Support postgraduate teaching and practical learning in Applied Chemistry or Chemistry.

Post-wise Duties

Adhoc Assistant Professor

You will plan lessons, teach postgraduate classes, assess student work and guide academic activity in the assigned IICISST specialisation. You may also help with course coordination, practical sessions and department records during the temporary term.

Temporary Teaching Assistant

You will help deliver tutorials and practical sessions, answer student questions and support the faculty member responsible for the relevant postgraduate programme. The work can include preparing learning material, keeping assessment records and helping laboratories or computer sessions run smoothly.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Tenure: The engagement is purely temporary for 11 months or until the university no longer needs the service, whichever is earlier.
• Department status: These roles belong to the self-financed IICISST department.
• Shortlisting: Academic scores are used only to shortlist applicants; the final decision is based on interview performance.
• In-service applicants: You must bring the prescribed No Objection Certificate from your current employer.
• Travel costs: You must attend the interview at your own expense.
