UGC Still Considering When to Implement PhD as Minimum Qualification for Assistant Professor Posts
The University Grants Commission is still considering when to put to effect the policy which makes PhD mandatory for recruiting assistant professors. The ‘University Grants Commission Regulations, 2018’ were to come to effect from July 1, however, speaking to News 18.com Secretary University Grants Commission said, “The matter is under consideration.” The policy was approved in 2018, however, a three-year window was given to candidates to complete their PhD and to ensure they are not disadvantaged by the immediate implementation. As per the new policy, a PhD degree will be a mandatory qualification for direct recruitment to the post of assistant professor. But would UGC extend the date to make PhD mandatory for the post of assistant professor in the universities?
