University Grants Commission of India invites applications from outstanding highly motivated individuals, with demonstrated flair for research and teaching, for positions of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor in areas of basic sciences, i.e. Physics, Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, and Engineering- and Earth Sciences.
