DU Teaching Faculty A7 Recruitment 2026

DU Teaching Faculty Recruitment 2026: Overview

Dibrugarh University (DU) is recruiting Professors, Associate Professors and Assistant Professors for its academic departments in Dibrugarh, Assam. Advertisement A.7/2026 brings together regular faculty appointments across the sciences, social sciences, language studies and commerce. The mix of departments matters: you should read the entry for your subject, because the academic focus differs even where the faculty designation is the same.

Posts and Disciplines

• Anthropology: the Professor role sits within the university's Anthropology department, with an open specialisation entry.
• Applied Geology: the department has Professor and Associate Professor roles. Petroleum Geology is a named focus for one Associate Professor entry, while the other entries carry open specialisation.
• Assamese: Professor and Associate Professor roles serve different academic areas. The notice highlights language studies and digital approaches for the Professor role, and comparative Indian literature for the Associate Professor role.
• Commerce: the department includes Associate Professor and Assistant Professor roles, all with open specialisation entries.
• Economics: the Associate Professor role focuses on Financial Economics or Industrial Economics.
• History: Associate Professor roles have open specialisation entries within the department.
• Sociology: the Professor role carries an open specialisation entry in Sociology.
• Statistics: the Professor role carries an open specialisation entry in Statistics.

Post-wise Duties

Professor

As a Professor, you would normally combine subject teaching with research guidance and academic leadership. The department determines the subject setting, so your work in Assamese would have a different academic focus from work in Statistics or Applied Geology.

Associate Professor

As an Associate Professor, you would normally teach in your field, develop research and guide students with their academic work. The named subject focus is particularly useful when considering the Applied Geology, Assamese and Economics entries.

Assistant Professor

The Assistant Professor roles are in Commerce. Typical faculty work includes preparing classes, assessing student work, supporting students with subject questions and building a research programme alongside teaching.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Shortlisting discretion: meeting the minimum criteria does not guarantee an interview call. The Screening Committee's shortlisting decision is final and binding.
• Department entries: an open specialisation entry refers to the academic focus of that post. It does not replace the reservation category printed against the same entry.
