Tripura University Guest Faculty Recruitment 2026 — 95 Posts, Apply by 25 Aug

Tripura University, a Central University, has released its Guest Faculty Recruitment 2026 notification under Notification No. F.TU/REG/Appt.GF/4/2022 (Vol-VI) dated 18 August 2026, inviting applications for 95 posts across 31 departments and schools. Eligible candidates can apply by email until 25 August 2026, up to 16:30 hours. Applicants need to meet the minimum qualifications and eligibility criteria prescribed under the UGC Regulations, 2018, along with applicable UGC/AICTE/NCTE/MoE norms, with department-specific desirable qualifications such as NET or PhD listed against certain departments. The 95 Guest Faculty posts span 31 departments and schools, ranging from Bengali, Chemistry, and Commerce to Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, and the School of Education, with vacancy counts ranging from 1 to 12 depending on the department. Superannuated (retired) teachers up to a maximum age of 70 years may also be considered for these assignments. Selection for these Tripura University posts involves screening of applications based on an Academic Score sheet (maximum 100 points covering Graduation, Post-Graduation, M.Phil/PhD, NET/SLET, research publications, and teaching experience), followed by a walk-in interview tentatively starting from 31 August 2026. Selected Guest Faculty will be paid Rs. 1,500 per lecture, subject to a maximum monthly ceiling of Rs. 50,000, on a purely temporary basis for one academic semester or until a regular faculty member joins, whichever is earlier. Interested candidates should download the prescribed Application Form, fill it out separately for each post applied for, and email it along with self-attested certificates to the official Tripura University address well before the 25 August 2026 deadline. This Tripura University Guest Faculty Recruitment 2026 offers postgraduates and doctoral holders across a wide range of disciplines a temporary teaching opportunity at a Central University in Agartala, Tripura. This Tripura University recruitment is notable for its breadth, spanning 31 departments and schools that reflect the university's full academic range — from core sciences like Chemistry, Botany, Physics, and Mathematics, to humanities and social sciences including Bengali, Hindi, Kokborok, Philosophy, and Sociology, to professional and technical fields such as Business Management, Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Journalism and Mass Communication. Candidates should carefully match their subject specialization and any listed desirable qualifications to the specific department slot before applying, since a single Application Form covers only one post, and applying to multiple departments requires separate forms and separate submissions. The School of Education carries the largest single allocation at 12 slots, spread across Education itself and several Method Paper specializations including English, Kokborok, Physical Science, Geography, Life Science, Political Science, Mathematics, and History — making it a particularly significant opportunity for candidates with a background in teacher education or subject-specific pedagogy. Business Management follows with 8 slots, and Commerce with 7, reflecting strong demand in these professional programs at Tripura University this semester. Given that this is explicitly a temporary, semester-bound assignment with no guarantee of continuation or regular appointment, candidates should weigh the honorarium structure carefully — the Rs. 1,500 per lecture rate, capped at Rs. 50,000 monthly, means actual earnings depend directly on the teaching load assigned, which the university does not commit to in advance. Candidates already engaged elsewhere should confirm they can commit to the walk-in interview, tentatively from 31 August 2026, and to a potential immediate start of teaching duties if selected, since Guest Faculty appointments at Central Universities are typically filled on short notice to cover teaching gaps. Applicants should also note that Tripura University explicitly reserves the right to increase or decrease the number of Guest Faculty positions at any stage, so the department-wise slot counts published in the notification dated 18 August 2026 should be treated as indicative rather than final, and candidates should check the official website for any subsequent revision before the walk-in interview. Candidates should prepare their Curriculum Vitae and academic scoring documentation carefully in advance of the walk-in interview. Interested candidates are encouraged to reach out to the respective department for any subject-specific clarification before submitting their application.
