NLUD Professor of Practice Recruitment 2026: Overview

National Law University Delhi (NLUD) is seeking full-time Professors of Practice for its campus in Dwarka, New Delhi. The engagement brings professional experience into interdisciplinary legal education and research under the University Grants Commission (UGC) framework. Its central feature is the link between professional practice and university teaching, with opportunities to contribute ideas and plans for the university.

Posts and Disciplines

• Corporate industry and other organisations: This area brings the perspective of professional practice in corporate and organisational settings into the university.
• Law and technology: This area covers artificial intelligence, data governance and related subjects at the intersection of law and technology.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Temporary appointment: The engagement does not give you a right to regularisation. Benefits available to regular faculty do not apply to this appointment. Consider this condition when deciding whether the role fits your plans.
• University rules: You will work under NLUD rules and regulations. The appointment also depends on checks of your antecedents, so an offer remains subject to those checks.
• Continuation: The university can end the appointment for misconduct, unsatisfactory performance or a later finding that you do not meet its requirements.
• Accuracy of information: False information, hidden facts or fake records can lead to cancellation of your candidature or appointment. The university also warns that such cases may lead to legal action.
• Recruitment discretion: NLUD may accept or reject applications, withdraw the advertisement, change the recruitment process or withhold a post at any stage. The notice does not promise an appointment simply because you apply.
• Final decisions: The university treats its decisions on candidature and appointment as final and will not enter into correspondence about them. Canvassing leads to disqualification.
• Travel costs: You will not receive travel or daily allowance for attending an interview or interaction. Keep this condition in mind if you need to travel to the university.
