OUAT Guest Faculty Forest Biology Recruitment 2026

OUAT Guest Faculty Recruitment 2026: Overview

Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology (OUAT) is engaging a Guest Faculty member in Forest Biology and Tree Improvement at its College of Forestry in Bhubaneswar. This is a temporary teaching engagement for the academic session, with a walk-in at the college. The department named in the notice is Forest Biology and Tree Improvement (FBT), so your engagement will be linked to that subject area.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Academic session: The engagement is for the 2026-27 academic year. OUAT may end it before the academic year finishes, so the stated session does not guarantee that the assignment will continue throughout that period.
• No regular appointment claim: Working as guest faculty does not give you a right to a regular appointment at OUAT. Consider this condition when deciding whether the temporary arrangement fits your plans.
• Leaving the assignment: If you choose to leave, you must give one month’s notice. You will be relieved only after your resignation is accepted.
• Panel validity: The empanelment remains valid for one year. This is the period for which the panel is valid, while the engagement itself remains subject to the academic-year and early-termination conditions.
• Changes to the drive: The college may change the number of positions according to need and approval from the competent authority. It may also cancel the interview process without giving a reason.
• Travel costs: OUAT will not pay travel or dearness allowance for attending the walk-in. You will need to make your own travel arrangements.
• Schedule updates: If the walk-in cannot take place as planned, OUAT will announce a replacement date on its website on the afternoon of the previous working day. Check the university website for updates before travelling.

Application Submission Notes

The walk-in venue is the Conference Room, College of Forestry, OUAT, Bhubaneswar. You must report at the venue no later than 10:00 a.m. on the scheduled interview day.
