MPhil holders are exempted from NET

Dear All

In a major relief to thousands of MPhil degree holders aspiring for a lecturer's job, the University Grants Commission (UGC) has decided to exempt all candidates who obtained an MPhil degree on or before July 10, 2009 from clearing the tough-to-crack National Eligibility Test (NET) to qualify for appointment as a teacher in a college or university.

The decision, taken at the UGC's 472nd meeting recently, comes as a huge relief for scores of MPhil degree holders who stood disqualified for an assistant professor's post (earlier called lecturer) sans an NET qualification. The UGC had last year notified its new regulations on minimum qualifications for teaching faculty as per which a pass in the NET was mandatory for appointment as assistant professors.

At the meeting, it was noted that the UGC Regulations of 2009/2010 are prospective and not retrospective in nature, and therefore resolved that all candidates having MPhil degree on or before July 10, 2009 shall remain exempted from the requirement of NET for the purpose of appointment as lecturer/assistant professor. A similar exemption shall be applicable to all candidates who have obtained a PhD degree on or before December 31, 2009 and a Candidate, who had registered themselves for PhD degree on or before July 10, 2009.

Dear Asif,

The decisions taken in this minute are ruled out by court and now NET/SLET is compulsory even if one has obtained Mphil degree before june 2009. However PhD Degree holder who received their degrees before june 2009 are still exempted from UGC NET

Sir
This is not conformed from UGC authority.The Delhi based journalist flash that news again. The authenticity will conform if UGC website list out the amendment. In my knowledge the court already disagree that matter and till date UGC regulation 2009 is active for academic recruitments. Sir, kindly see the bottom line of this news people already criticized that unauthentic news. We will wait from UGC clarification about that implementation.

Sir

  The Central University of Himachal Pradesh is right according to  UGC regulation 2009 for appointment of Assistant professor. Sir you again check the notification of this university. Not any paragraph of university notification show that M. Phil is the exempted case for appointment of Assistant professor . Notice clearly indicate  that  PhD  or NET is the exempted case for above post and this is the UGC regulation 2009.

Sir,

I think Pawan Agrawal, and MD GULNAWAZ AZAM are right in this regard. The UGC regulations are still valid and in that M.Phill are not exempted from appearing NET exam. We should not go by the news of any newspapers or journals.
