CUSB Faculty Recruitment 2026 — 25 Posts

About this recruitment

Central University of South Bihar (CUSB), Gaya has advertised 25 teaching posts on a regular basis — 2 Professors, 8 Associate Professors and 15 Assistant Professors — in 22 departments, under Advt No. CUSB/Advt./49/2026 dated 6 November 2026. Applications are online only, through the CU Chayan portal, and close on 7 December 2026 at 5:00 PM.

Please note the basis of this post: the details below are taken from the official 12-page advertisement, read in full from a mirror copy hosted on lifesciencejobs.thebiologybro.com, because the CUSB website (cusb.ac.in) was unreachable when this post was prepared. The mirror carries the university letterhead, the advertisement number and date, and the Registrar's signature, and its contents match the official advertisement circulating publicly. The official PDF link is given below; if the university website recovers, check the notification there before applying.

Some secondary summaries of this advertisement are wrong on two points, and this post follows the advertisement itself: the last date is 7 December 2026 (not 3 December), and the post split is 2 Professors, 8 Associate Professors and 15 Assistant Professors (not 1, 6 and 18).
