Professor, Associate Professor & Other Posts

This rolling advertisement is ideal for accomplished academics and researchers holding a Ph.D., who possess a strong academic record and a proven track record in teaching, research, or industrial experience. Candidates with expertise in Petroleum Engineering, Chemical & Biochemical Engineering, Electrical & Electronics Engineering, Computer Science & Engineering, Mathematical Sciences, Mechanical Engineering, Energy & Human Sciences, or Management Studies are highly sought after. Fresh Ph.D. holders are also encouraged to apply for Assistant Professor (Grade-II) on a contractual basis, offering a valuable entry point into a prestigious institution. This opportunity is particularly suitable for those seeking a challenging role within a Central Government 'Institution of National Importance' with competitive pay scales and excellent benefits.

Candidates who do not possess a Ph.D. or an equivalent qualification with a first-class academic record are not eligible. Those seeking non-academic or non-research-focused roles should not apply. Individuals looking for a quick, fixed-term engagement without long-term academic potential may find the roles less suitable, although contractual positions are offered for fresh PhDs. Applicants without the required years of post-PhD experience for Professor, Associate Professor, or Assistant Professor (Grade-I) will not be considered for those specific higher-level positions. Candidates unwilling to potentially be transferred between Jais and Bengaluru campuses should also reconsider.

The Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT) holds the esteemed status of an 'Institution of National Importance,' operating on par with IITs and promoted by major oil PSUs and the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas. This offers exceptional institutional prestige, a strong research environment, and significant opportunities for academic growth and contribution to the energy sector. Faculty members benefit from a Central Government pay structure (7th CPC) and comprehensive benefits, ensuring a secure and rewarding career path with scope for advanced research, publications, and professional development in a globally recognized institution.
