Assistant Professor - Data Science

About This Job

Air University, a PAF-affiliated public sector university with campuses across Pakistan, has advertised an opening for Assistant Professor - Data Science at Air University Karachi Campus, which offers business, computing and engineering programs to students across Sindh. The vacancy falls under AU faculty cadre and forms part of the university ongoing recruitment drive as it continues to expand teaching, research and support capacity at its Karachi Campus in Karachi. Air University regularly opens rolling vacancies of this kind across its Islamabad, Karachi, Kharian, Kamra and Shorkot campuses, and this listing is one of the current openings published on the university official recruitment portal. AU has grown steadily since its founding and now operates multiple campuses and a constituent medical college, so a faculty-cadre opening such as this one is typically part of a wider round of campus-wise hiring rather than a single isolated post, and jobseekers tracking AU openings will often see related positions advertised at the same time across other departments and campuses.

The position sits within Air University computing, cyber security and engineering ecosystem, an area the university has prioritised given Pakistan growing demand for IT and cyber security graduates, and the selected candidate will contribute to teaching or technical/lab support work in the department. As with other Air University postings, applicants for the Assistant Professor - Data Science position are expected to meet the qualification, experience and, where relevant, HEC or professional-council criteria applicable to the discipline and grade of the post; the official job listing on AU recruitment portal carries the full breakdown of these requirements. The position is open to eligible candidates on merit, and AU does not apply a domicile restriction for its university-cadre and campus-based hiring. Shortlisted candidates are typically called for a test or interview at the relevant campus as part of AU standard recruitment process for faculty positions. Given that Air University is run under Pakistan Air Force administration, candidates should also be prepared for the standard character and background verification that accompanies employment at a PAF-affiliated institution, alongside the usual academic and professional screening carried out by the relevant faculty or department at Karachi Campus.

Interested and eligible candidates should apply online through Air University official job portal at portals.au.edu.pk/jobs, selecting the Assistant Professor - Data Science listing under Karachi Campus, before the application deadline of 31 October 2026. Applicants are advised to keep scanned copies of their CNIC, academic transcripts and degrees, experience certificates and a recent CV ready before starting the online application, and to submit well ahead of the closing date since AU portal does not accept applications after a listing closes. Candidates can track the status of this and other current Air University vacancies directly on the official recruitment portal, which is updated as new campus-wise openings are published. Given the volume of positions AU advertises across its campus network at any one time, applicants are encouraged to double-check the exact campus, department and closing date shown against their own application before submitting, and to keep a copy of their submitted application for reference ahead of any subsequent test or interview call.
