The Mar Baselios Institute of Technology and Science (MBITS) has opened engineering faculty vacancies for 2025, inviting applications for Assistant Professor posts alongside other teaching roles. The recruitment drive covers multiple engineering departments, with deadlines set for September and October 2025.
Faculty Recruitment Drive: Overview
The institute confirmed the launch of its 2025 recruitment programme through an official notification published on its website in early September. According to MBITS, applications are being accepted for Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Professor positions in five core engineering streams: Civil, Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), Electrical and Electronics, Electronics and Communication, and Mechanical.
The application process began on 1 September 2025 and will remain open until 31 October 2025 for general faculty positions. A separate notification for the Assistant Professor (CSE) post specifies an earlier closing date of 30 September 2025.
Assistant Professor in Computer Science & Engineering
Eligibility and Qualifications
The targeted call for Assistant Professor (CSE) requires candidates to hold a Master of Engineering (M.E.) or Master of Technology (M.Tech.) in Computer Science or a closely related specialization. Applicants must also have a Bachelor of Engineering (B.E.) or Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) in the same field, with First Class or equivalent grades in at least one degree.
While a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) is not mandatory, MBITS has noted that it will be considered an advantage in the selection process.
Application Procedure
Applicants must submit:
- A detailed curriculum vitae,
- Academic transcripts and degree certificates, and
- A statement of teaching philosophy and research interests.
The application package is to be sent by email to the HR department, as indicated in the notification. Candidates are instructed to use the subject line: “Application for the Post of Assistant Professor – Computer Science and Engineering.”
Broader Faculty Vacancies
For positions beyond CSE, MBITS has encouraged candidates across engineering disciplines to apply through its online recruitment portal. The process requires registration, uploading of documents, and online submission, after which candidates will receive confirmation.
The institute has clarified that AICTE (All India Council for Technical Education) regulations will govern minimum qualifications, with higher academic credentials required for Associate Professor and Professor levels.
Selection Process
According to the notification, shortlisted applicants will be invited to participate in a two-stage evaluation:
- Personal Interview with the recruitment panel.
- Teaching Demonstration, where candidates must present on a chosen subject relevant to their discipline.
The panel is expected to consider teaching skills, research contributions, and academic achievements.
Institutional Context
MBITS, located in Kerala, has a history of recruiting qualified faculty to strengthen its engineering programmes. The institute is affiliated with APJ Abdul Kalam Technological University (KTU) and approved by AICTE. Its leadership has emphasised aligning faculty recruitment with academic quality benchmarks and growing student enrolments.
Experts note that faculty recruitment in India’s engineering colleges is often competitive. “Assistant Professor positions are in demand, particularly in Computer Science, given the industry’s growth and the shortage of qualified teachers,” said Dr. Ravi Menon, a higher education analyst at the Centre for Policy Research in Education.
Deadlines and Next Steps
- General Faculty Posts (All Engineering Departments): Apply online by 31 October 2025.
- Assistant Professor in CSE: Submit email application by 30 September 2025.
Candidates are advised to regularly monitor the MBITS official recruitment page for updates on interview schedules and final shortlists.
Conclusion
The opening of engineering faculty vacancies at MBITS reflects the institute’s effort to expand academic capacity and maintain compliance with AICTE standards. For aspiring academics, particularly in Computer Science and Engineering, the current drive presents a timely opportunity to secure a role in a reputed institution.
