Dear sir, as per ugc 2019 notification NET is not compulsary or mandatory for assistant professor!? because notification itself read that either NET Or phd (ugc approved) or phd from top 500 universities is eligible for assistant professor. So sir, how could we say, NET is mandatory for asst prof!?
Hi there!
As per the recent notification from the Ministry Of Education, PhD will not be mandatory for applying for the post of assistant professor in any university or college in India. This criteria will remain enforced till 2023. As far as NET is concerned, if you have a PhD degree from Top 500 Universities then you would be exempted from NET criteria. Without NET also, you can apply for the post of assistant professor if you are having a PhD degree from Top 500 Universities.
Thankyou.
