Lecturer, Urban & Infrastructure Engineering

About This Job

NED University of Engineering & Technology in Karachi has opened a contractual teaching post of Lecturer in Urban & Infrastructure Engineering. The vacancy appears in the Registrar's advertisement reference DR(Estab)/(22)/6305, dated 6 October 2026, alongside an Assistant Professor position in the same department. Both posts point to a growing focus on railway and mass-transit engineering at the university, and this Lecturer opening is aimed at early-career academics who want to teach and, at the same time, build a research career in that field. Only Pakistani nationals with a Sindh domicile can apply, so the post is effectively reserved for candidates from the province.

The minimum qualification is a Master's degree, or an equivalent qualification after 18 years of education, in the relevant field. Applicants need a first division or a CGPA of at least 3.00 in all of their degrees, and a third division at any stage of the academic career disqualifies the candidate. Preference goes to those whose Master's specialisation is in railway engineering, transportation engineering with a focus on railways, or mass transportation, and to people who have already published research in these areas. The university also expects the selected Lecturer to have a clear research plan and a firm commitment to pursue a Ph.D. in Railway Engineering. A foreign degree needs an HEC equivalency certificate. The upper age limit is 35 years, with relaxation for government, semi-government and university employees who apply through proper channel, and a 5% minority quota will be observed. The advertisement does not mention a fixed salary, since pay follows the university's contract terms.

Applications have to be made on the university's prescribed form, and the process has two parts. Candidates first complete the online application form linked from the NED University jobs page, because the advertisement clearly says that any application without the online form will be rejected. A printed copy of the completed form then has to reach the Registrar's office at University Road, Karachi, on or before 20 October 2026 during office hours, together with proof of the online payment of Rs.3,000. The file should contain a biodata or CV, attested photocopies of all educational certificates from matriculation onwards, experience testimonials, CNIC, domicile and character certificates, and two references. Anyone applying for more than one post must send a separate application with its own set of documents for each post. Incomplete or late applications will not be considered, any direct or indirect approach or influence will lead to disqualification, and only shortlisted candidates will be called for interview. Interested applicants should gather their papers early and send the hard copy well before the closing date.
