GBU Faculty Recruitment 2026: If you have a Master’s with NET, or a Ph.D., and want to teach at a university in Delhi NCR, this is a big round. Gautam Buddha University is filling posts across 8 schools, from engineering and law to Buddhist studies. Only Indian nationals can apply.
But this is not an online form, and that is where many people slip. You have to post a hard copy and also email a scanned copy. The last date is for the form to reach the university, and GBU says it is not responsible for postal delay. Meeting the minimum degree is also not enough. If many forms come in, GBU can call only those with higher marks or experience for the interview.
Below you will find the seats in each category, the pay level for each post, the degree rules, the fee with bank details, the papers to attach and the six steps to send your form. Every fact here is from GBU Advertisement No. GBU/Admin/TS/2026-09 dated 14 October 2026, checked on 1 November 2026.
