🏥 AIIMS Bhubaneswar Faculty Recruitment 2026 — 82 Group A posts across 34 departments
Notice dated 13 November 2026 · e-File RECT-11012/4/2026-RECU SEC · Direct recruitment · Bhubaneswar, Odisha
AIIMS Bhubaneswar has announced 82 regular Group A faculty vacancies, including current and backlog posts, in 34 departments. The intake covers four different academic ranks, whose minimum starting basic pay and experience requirements are materially different. Medical and applicable non-medical qualifications must be examined against the particular department and rank rather than against a single generic faculty requirement.
📌 The online application dates have not been expressed as calendar dates in the 13 November notice. The application link is to open from publication of the advertisement in Employment News/Rozgar Samachar. The normal deadline is 30 days after that publication, with the stated next-working-day rule when the deadline falls on a weekly off or holiday. The signed application and supporting documents must reach AIIMS within seven days of the online cut-off. Applicants should rely on the institute's confirmed closing date once it is published.
🥧 Vacancy share by faculty rank
🥧 82 faculty seats by academic rank
The four grades above total 82. Their numbers are not four interchangeable choices: each grade has its own qualifications, seniority and upper-age rule.
📊 Current versus backlog recruitment
📊 Published current and backlog seats
36 fresh/current positions and 46 backlog positions make up the total. A backlog seat retains the vertical reservation printed against its actual departmental row; it is not an additional vacancy outside the total.
📊 Starting basic pay by rank
📊 Official minimum monthly basic pay
The amounts are minimum basic pay, not consolidated take-home salary. Government allowances admissible at Bhubaneswar apply under institute rules; NPA applies only to medically qualified candidates. Assistant Professors may move to Pay Level 13 after three years under the stated provision; this is not their initial pay.
📋 Grade-wise essentials
For medical positions the notice requires an appropriately scheduled recognised medical qualification with MD/MS or equivalent, and/or the relevant DM/M.Ch super-speciality qualification where applicable. Recognised two-, three- and five-year super-speciality routes have different experience conditions. For notified non-medical disciplines, a relevant master's degree and doctorate is required; the advertisement specifically mentions Medical Anatomy, Medical Biochemistry, Medical Physiology and Medical Pharmacology pathways. Experience is counted after obtaining the prescribed qualifying degree. One-year teaching/research experience relaxation for SC/ST faculty candidates is available under applicable Government of India guidelines; discretionary relaxation of qualifications or experience is not an automatic entitlement.
📍 Department-by-department vacancy register
C = current vacancies; B = backlog vacancies. The detailed rank and reservation of each seat is separately identified below. A department with both kinds of vacancies may have multiple faculty ranks; selecting the department alone does not identify eligibility.
🧭 Exact grade and category distribution in each department
Each entry below shows UR/OBC/SC/ST/EWS in that order. Zero categories are omitted. Current and backlog rows are displayed separately so that a reserved seat is not confused with an unreserved seat of the same grade.
🔎 Earmarked specialty notes: Five $-marked posts in Burns & Plastic Surgery are to be filled against posts sanctioned for the Burn Centre (one current Associate Professor, three current Assistant Professor and one of the two backlog OBC Assistant Professor seats). For Medical Oncology/Haematology, the *-marked current UR Professor and backlog ST Assistant Professor positions are in Haematology; the #-marked backlog ST Professor and current UR Additional Professor positions are in Medical Oncology. The @-marked current UR Professor under Trauma & Emergency is to be filled in General Surgery.
♿ Horizontal PwBD reservation — avoid double counting
The institute identifies 3 PwBD posts out of 82 under the applicable 4% horizontal reservation policy. These three are included in the 82 and do not increase the total to 85. Eligibility for a particular role depends on the disability category, prescribed disability threshold of at least 40%, the suitable departments named in the notice, and assessment by the institute's medical board. The original notice does not assign all three to specific grade/department/category slots; no such allocation is assumed here.
💳 Application fees
A separate online form and applicable separate fee must be submitted for every different post applied for. Non-payment of a prescribed fee can lead to rejection. Fee exemptions must be applied according to candidate eligibility, not added as discounts across categories.
📅 Application dates and submission sequence
Step 1: Check the Recruitment Notice section of the official AIIMS Bhubaneswar site for the activated faculty application link and the Employment News-linked dates. Confirm the closing date shown there before submitting.
Step 2: Select the exact department, faculty grade and advertised category. Complete an online application for each post individually; ensure your photograph and signature are clearly visible in the application preview. Retain a signed print of each submitted form.
Step 3: Send the signed online application with self-attested copies of supporting records by Speed Post or courier so that the packet actually reaches, not merely leaves the post office, within seven days of the closing date. Include matriculation/intermediate documents, medical qualifications and marksheets, internship certificate where applicable, specialty postgraduate/superspeciality documents, age/category certificates and properly dated teaching/research experience records.
Hard-copy addressee: Shri Dibya Ranjan Pattnaik, Assistant Administrative Officer, Recruitment Cell, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhubaneswar, Sijua, Dumuduma, Bhubaneswar – 751019, Odisha. Telephone: 0674-2476255.
Write “Application for the post of __________ in the Department of __________” on the envelope. Applicants in Government service must obtain their employer's prior permission before applying and must produce the original NOC at interview or document verification; without the requisite NOC they will not be permitted to interview.
🎯 Selection, screening and verification
The Screening Committee may shortlist applicants; the stated minimum qualifications do not by themselves guarantee an interview call. A screening test is possible only if the application volume makes it necessary; no written test date, compulsory pattern, subject-wise syllabus or marks distribution has been announced. Shortlisted candidates attend an interview and present original evidence. The Selection Committee determines the final methodology. The interview may be at AIIMS Bhubaneswar or another officially notified location, and no TA/DA is payable.
🏥 Service conditions applicants should know
These are regular full-time institute posts on two years' probation. Private practice is prohibited. Institute employees are governed by the applicable New Pension Scheme provisions. Faculty may be assigned clinical, teaching, research, departmental or outreach-centre duties at attached rural or urban health centres or other centres as determined by the competent authority. Accommodation depends on availability; where not provided, admissible HRA may be payable under the applicable rules. A separate seniority or promotional benefit should not be presumed solely from the starting pay figure.
📜 Reservation and certificates
Eligible SC/ST/OBC/EWS/PwBD applicants must furnish correct certificates in the prescribed format. OBC-NCL applicants must be in the Central OBC List and hold a certificate valid for 2026–27, issued on or after 1 April 2026. EWS certificates must be valid for the current financial year. Where no suitable EWS applicant is found, the notice permits provisional consideration of UR applicants for EWS posts under the stated conditions; EWS vacancies are not treated as ordinary backlog seats. SC/ST/OBC/EWS age relaxation is not applicable to applicants competing for unreserved seats. Published general relaxation values are SC/ST 5 years, OBC 3 years, PwBD 10 years and eligible Government servants 5 years as per DoPT instructions. The grade-specific upper ages remain the starting point.
