UGC Removes NET Requirement for Assistant Professor Recruitment

UGC NET New Rules For Assistant Professor Recruitment 2025 Latest News: The University Grants Commission (UGC) has announced a landmark reform in the recruitment process for Assistant Professors, aimed at transforming the higher education sector in India. Starting in 2025, the UGC has proposed removing the mandatory National Eligibility Test (NET) requirement for candidates seeking these positions.

The UGC NET exam for 2025 is scheduled to take place from January 3 to 16, but this change signals a major shift for master's degree holders, who will now have a clearer path to join the teaching profession without the additional hurdle of NET qualification.

This decision aligns with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which emphasizes flexibility and inclusivity in the education system. The reform is expected to open doors for more young talent, making the teaching field more accessible and fostering innovation in higher education.
