Aliah University, an autonomous institution under the Department of Minority Affairs and Madrasah Education, Government of West Bengal, has called a walk-in interview for temporary Visiting Faculty in the Department of Law. The circular is Advertisement No. AU/Apptt.-16/2026, dated 10 September 2026. Candidates must report at 12:00 noon on 21 September 2026 at the Park Circus Campus in Kolkata.
This is not a regular Assistant Professor vacancy on the 7th CPC academic pay matrix. Engagement is purely temporary. Pay is on a per-class basis with a monthly ceiling. The official PDF does not print the number of seats or the rupee rate.
If you already hold UGC-compliant Law qualifications and can reach 17, Gorakhpur Road on the notified Monday, this is a short, document-heavy interview, not an online form cycle. Keep the Aliah University recruitment page bookmarked for any venue change.

What Posts Are Available? – Aliah University Vacancy & Eligibility 2026
The circular names one designation only. It does not publish a roster or a headcount. Do not treat aggregator “1 post” figures as official.
| Post Name | Vacancies | Qualification | Pay |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visiting Faculty (Department of Law) | Not specified | LL.M. / Master’s in Law + NET/SET/SLET, or Ph.D. in Law as per UGC | Per class, monthly ceiling |
Vacancy interpretation: Aliah is filling teaching support in Law for the current academic need, not running a cadre recruitment. If very few candidates report, the panel may still engage one person. If many report, the university can take none. Clause 3 of the PDF lets the university cancel the advertisement in whole or in part.
Eligibility – Education, Age & Domicile
Mandatory (working reading of “UGC guidelines” for university teachers): Master’s degree in Law (LL.M.) with at least 55% marks (or equivalent grade) from a recognised university, plus UGC-NET / WB-SET / SLET, or a Ph.D. in Law that meets the UGC exemption conditions then in force.
Preferred, not separately listed: Prior college/university teaching in Law, publications, or litigation-plus-teaching mix. The PDF does not treat these as mandatory filters.
Domicile: Not restricted in the circular. Indian candidates who meet UGC academic norms may attend. West Bengal SET is useful; it is not printed as the only accepted test.
Final-year / result-awaited: The notice does not allow a pending Master’s. Safer assumption: the LL.M. (or qualifying PhD) must already be in hand when you face the panel.
Use the CGPA to Percentage Calculator if your marksheet is in CGPA. Use the conversion method your university printed. The official formula on the marksheet prevails.
What Is the Age Limit?
The age limit is not printed in Advertisement No. AU/Apptt.-16/2026. There is no cut-off date and no category-wise extra years in this circular.
Do not assume 18–35 or 21–40 from other West Bengal university ads. Those numbers are not in this PDF.
Examples (eligibility here is qualification and physical presence, not a printed age cap):
✅ A 34-year-old UR candidate with LL.M. and NET, born on 21 September 1992, can attend if documents are complete. No maximum age is stated as on 21 September 2026.
❌ A 36-year-old candidate without LL.M. plus NET/SET or an eligible Ph.D. in Law is not eligible on qualification, even though no age cap is printed.
Use our Age Eligibility Calculator to check instantly against any later cut-off if Aliah issues one.
What Is the Visiting Faculty Remuneration in Kolkata?
| Component | What the notification says |
|---|---|
| Pay type | Remuneration on a per-class basis |
| Monthly cap | A ceiling per month applies |
| Exact rate | Not mentioned |
| Allowances / DA / HRA | Not mentioned |
| Pension / NPS / PF | Not mentioned |
| TA/DA for interview | Not paid |
Indicative market context only: UGC’s guest-faculty guidelines dated 28 January 2019 speak of ₹1,500 per lecture subject to a ceiling of ₹50,000 a month. AU/Apptt.-16/2026 does not adopt those figures in writing. Your engagement letter, not this article, will fix the Aliah rate.
In-hand will usually equal classes actually taken in that month, up to the ceiling, minus TDS if your total annual income crosses the tax threshold. This is not a Level-10 academic salary and not comparable to a regular Assistant Professor slip in Kolkata.
What Is the Application Fee?
No application fee is mentioned in the official notification. There is no SBI Collect step and no demand draft instruction.
Do not pay anyone who calls or messages offering a “form fee” or “interview slot.”
How to Attend the Walk-in?
There is no apply-online link. Selection starts only if you are physically present.
- Download and read the Aliah University Visiting Faculty Law Recruitment 2026 PDF.
- Prepare an application on plain paper with a detailed bio-data and one passport-size photograph. The university has not issued a separate prescribed form in this circular.
- Arrange originals plus one set of self-attested photocopies of all testimonials (degrees, NET/SET/Ph.D., ID, experience if any).
- On 21 September 2026, report by 12:00 noon at the Board Room, 1st Floor, Aliah University, Park Circus Campus, 17, Gorachand Road, Kolkata – 700014.
- Do not go to the New Town campus for this interview unless a later notice says so.
- Wait for the panel. No TA/DA is paid. The circular says no correspondence will be entertained.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Treating New Town (IIA/27, Action Area II) as the interview venue. This drive is at Park Circus.
- Arriving at the campus gate but not the Board Room, 1st Floor.
- Assuming an online portal or email ID will accept the bio-data.
- Carrying only photocopies and leaving originals at home.
- Expecting a regular faculty offer letter or 7th CPC pay from this walk-in.
আলিয়া বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় কলকাতা ভিজিটিং ফ্যাকাল্টি নিয়োগ ২০২৬ – আইন বিভাগে ওয়াক-ইন
আলিয়া বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় পশ্চিমবঙ্গ সরকারের সংখ্যালঘু বিষয়ক ও মাদ্রাসা শিক্ষা দপ্তরের অধীনে একটি স্বায়ত্তশাসিত উচ্চশিক্ষা প্রতিষ্ঠান। বিজ্ঞপ্তি নং AU/Apptt.-16/2026, তারিখ ১০ সেপ্টেম্বর ২০২৬ অনুযায়ী আইন বিভাগে ভিজিটিং ফ্যাকাল্টি বা অতিথি শিক্ষক নিতে ওয়াক-ইন ইন্টারভিউ ডাকা হয়েছে। সাক্ষাৎকার ২১ সেপ্টেম্বর ২০২৬, সোমবার, দুপুর ১২টায় পার্ক সার্কাস ক্যাম্পাসে। পদের সংখ্যা বিজ্ঞপ্তিতে লেখা নেই।
কে যেতে পারবেন?
ইউজিসি নিয়ম অনুযায়ী আইনে স্নাতকোত্তর (এলএলএম) এবং নেট, সেট বা স্লেট, অথবা ইউজিসি-মানের পিএইচডি থাকতে হবে। বয়সের উর্ধ্বসীমা এই পরিপত্রে ছাপা হয়নি। অন্য রাজ্যের প্রার্থীকে আলাদা করে বারণ করা হয়নি, তবে যোগ্যতা ইউজিসির হতে হবে। চূড়ান্ত বর্ষের ছাত্রদের জন্য আলাদা ছাড় নেই।
পারিশ্রমিক ও চাকরির ধরন কী?
প্রতি ক্লাস হিসাবে পারিশ্রমিক, মাসে একটি সর্বোচ্চ সীমা থাকবে। এটি স্থায়ী সহকারী অধ্যাপক পদ নয়, পেনশন বা এনপিএসের কথাও নেই। ইউজিসির অতিথি শিক্ষক গাইডলাইনে সাধারণত প্রতি বক্তৃতার হার ও মাসিক সিলিং থাকে, কিন্তু আলিয়ার এই পিডিএফে টাকার অঙ্ক নেই। নিয়োগপত্রে যা লেখা থাকবে, সেটাই মান্য।
কীভাবে হাজির হবেন?
অনলাইন আবেদন নেই। সাদা কাগজে বিস্তারিত বায়োডাটা, পাসপোর্ট ছবি, মূল মার্কশিট-সার্টিফিকেট এবং এক সেট সত্যায়িত ফটোকপি নিয়ে ১৭, গোরাচাঁদ রোড, কলকাতা-৭০০০১৪, প্রথম তলার বোর্ড রুমে দুপুর ১২টার মধ্যে পৌঁছান। টিএ/ডিএ পাওয়া যাবে না। নতুন টাউন ক্যাম্পাসে গেলে এই সাক্ষাৎকার মিস হবে। বিস্তারিত আলিয়া নিয়োগ পাতায় দেখুন।
How Are Visiting Faculty Selected?
Selection is a short chain, not a written exam cycle.
- Reporting and document check at the Board Room on 21 September 2026.
- Personal interview with the university panel.
- Decision to engage or not. The university may fill the need, leave it vacant, or cancel the advertisement.
- Engagement on temporary terms, if selected, subject to originals matching the photocopies.
No written test, no CBT, and no interview marks table are printed. No interview date beyond 21 September 2026 is listed. Ties, waitlists and reserve panels are not described.
Why Does Aliah University Kolkata Matter?
Aliah University is a state university in Kolkata working in the higher-education sector with a statutory focus on minority and madrasah-linked higher learning under the Government of West Bengal. Teaching happens across New Town, Park Circus and Taltala campuses. Law classes linked to this walk-in are tied to the Park Circus address given in the PDF.
Candidates search this employer because it is a recognised state university, not a private coaching campus, and because Visiting Faculty work can sit beside NET preparation or college teaching. Check the Aliah University organisation page, West Bengal government jobs and higher education jobs for related openings.
The honest downside: Aliah’s visiting-faculty circulars are thin on pay, tenure and seat count. You get classroom exposure, not a cadre post. Cancellation language is standard and real.
The SahisarkariJobs.in Analyst’s Take
Compare this with other Kolkata university guest-faculty or visiting-faculty calls (Calcutta University departments, Jadavpur guest engagement, West Bengal State University, or Aliah’s own earlier Law-adjacent and humanities walk-ins). Those drives also hire on honorarium, not Academic Level-10. A regular Assistant Professor advertisement from a state university or UGC-scale college is the closer “permanent” alternative, not IBPS or SSC.
Best fit: LL.M.–NET or Ph.D. Law teachers who already live in or can reach central Kolkata on a weekday noon, and who want semester-style teaching hours without waiting for a full faculty advertisement.
Skip this if you need a joining date, NPS and a published basic pay. The circular will not give you that security.
Practical tip: Print the bio-data the night before, mark “Visiting Faculty – Department of Law – AU/Apptt.-16/2026” on top, and keep NET/SET and LL.M. originals in one folder. Most rejections at this kind of gate are missing papers, not weak interviews.
Realistic timeline from similar university walk-ins: same-day or short-notice engagement if the department needs classes immediately; there is no published 6–9 month pipeline.
What Documents Are Required for Kolkata University Jobs?
Bring originals and one self-attested photocopy set.
- Plain-paper application with detailed bio-data
- Passport-size photograph
- Photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, voter card or passport)
- LL.M. / Master’s in Law marksheets and degree
- NET / SET / SLET certificate, or Ph.D. in Law documents
- Experience certificates, if you claim teaching or practice
- Category certificate only if you want it on record (no roster is printed)
- Any publication list you wish the panel to see
Document alert: the PDF asks for testimonials at the venue. A CV on a phone screen is not a substitute for the paper set.
Service Conditions
- Nature: purely temporary engagement.
- Pay: per class, monthly ceiling.
- No TA/DA for the interview.
- The university may cancel the process without assigning a reason.
- No bond, probation or pension clause is printed.
- Facilities such as hostel, transport or medical are not promised.
What Happens After Selection?
- The panel notes your documents and interview. There is no published merit URL in this circular.
- If engaged, you should receive a temporary engagement communication stating subject, hours and the per-class rate.
- You teach allotted Law classes at the campus the department names, most likely Park Circus unless told otherwise.
- Monthly remuneration is claimed against classes actually taken, subject to the ceiling and attendance-type verification the department uses.
- The assignment ends when the department stops allotting classes or when the engagement period lapses. There is no automatic absorption into a regular Assistant Professor vacancy.

FAQs – Aliah University Visiting Faculty 2026
What is the last date for Aliah University Visiting Faculty 2026?
21 September 2026. That date is the walk-in itself, not an online closing time. You must reach the Park Circus Board Room by 12:00 noon. No extension is printed in AU/Apptt.-16/2026 as of 12 September 2026.
What is the age limit for Aliah University Visiting Faculty?
Not mentioned. The Law visiting-faculty circular has no minimum or maximum age and no cut-off date. Eligibility turns on UGC academic norms and your presence at the venue. Do not copy 35-year caps from unrelated West Bengal ads.
Is there an exam for this Visiting Faculty post, or is it interview-based?
No written exam is mentioned. Selection is a walk-in interview after document check on 21 September 2026. There is no CBT syllabus and no negative marking scheme in this notification.
What is the salary of Visiting Faculty at Aliah University?
The PDF only says per-class remuneration with a monthly ceiling. No rupee figure is printed. UGC guest-faculty guidelines (28 January 2019) cite ₹1,500 per lecture and a ₹50,000 monthly cap, but Aliah has not copied those numbers into this advertisement.
Can final-year students apply for this recruitment?
No safe reading supports that. The notice asks for UGC-guideline qualifications and testimonials at the interview. An incomplete LL.M. is unlikely to satisfy the panel. Produce the degree and NET/SET or eligible Ph.D. papers on the day.
Is Aliah University Visiting Faculty a permanent government job?
No. The engagement is purely temporary. It is guest/visiting teaching, not a regular Assistant Professor post with NPS or academic Level-10 pay. The university may also cancel the advertisement without assigning a reason.
Can candidates from other states attend this walk-in?
Yes on the face of the circular. No West Bengal domicile clause is printed. You still need UGC-compliant Law qualifications and must appear in Kolkata on 21 September 2026. Travel cost is yours; no TA/DA is paid.
Where will I be posted if selected?
Teaching is tied to Aliah University in Kolkata. The interview venue is Park Circus Campus, 17, Gorachand Road. Exact classroom allotment is not spelt out. Do not expect a district-cadre posting outside the university.
How many Visiting Faculty vacancies are there in the Law department?
Not specified. Advertisement No. AU/Apptt.-16/2026 names the post and department but prints no headcount and no UR/OBC/SC/ST/EWS table. Treat any “1 post” figure on other websites as unverified.
Do I need to apply online before the Aliah University walk-in?
No. There is no portal step in this circular. Carry a plain-paper application, bio-data, photograph, originals and one photocopy set to the Board Room. An online registration number is not required.
What is the salary of guest faculty in West Bengal state universities?
Worth knowing before you apply: most state-university guest or visiting teachers are paid per class with a monthly cap, not on Academic Level-10. Figures vary by syndicate or executive-council order. Always wait for the engagement letter instead of assuming the UGC ₹1,500 / ₹50,000 template.
Is university visiting faculty work useful for a Law teaching career?
Yes as teaching evidence for a later regular Assistant Professor or college post, if you actually take classes and can show an engagement letter. It does not replace a proper UGC-scale vacancy. Use it as a bridge, not as the destination.
What are the disadvantages of this Visiting Faculty engagement?
The trade-off is flexibility versus security. Hours and take-home move with allotted classes. There is no printed vacancy, no published rate, no TA/DA, and an explicit right to cancel. If you need a fixed monthly salary and a promotion ladder, skip this walk-in.
Final Checklist – Is This the Right Job for You?
- You meet UGC academic norms for Law teaching (LL.M. + NET/SET or eligible Ph.D.).
- You accept a temporary, per-class engagement with no promise of permanence.
- You can reach the Board Room, 1st Floor, Park Circus Campus by 12:00 noon on 21 September 2026.
- You will carry plain-paper bio-data, a photograph, originals and one photocopy set.
- You understand that the university may take anyone and will not pay interview TA/DA.
