Visiting Faculty - Institute of Polymer & Textile Engineering (PU)

About This Job

The Institute of Polymer & Textile Engineering (Faculty of Chemical & Materials Engineering) at the University of the Punjab, Quaid-i-Azam Campus, Lahore, is inviting applications for part-time visiting faculty to teach Understanding of Holy Quran/Fehm-e-Quran to students of the M.Phil Polymer Technology programme for the 2026-28 session, covering both the Spring and Fall semesters. The notice, referenced D-IPTE-265 and dated 25 August 2026, reflects the Institute's ongoing need for qualified visiting instructors to cover its compulsory religious-studies component alongside its core polymer and textile engineering curriculum, which otherwise focuses on the technical and materials-science training that gives the Institute its name. As a part-time engagement rather than a regular faculty appointment, the position allows a qualified instructor to contribute to the programme without taking on a full-time commitment, and it forms part of the wider pattern of subject-specific visiting-faculty hiring that Punjab University departments and institutes routinely carry out to staff compulsory general-education and religious-studies components of their degree programmes.

Eligible candidates must hold a minimum qualification of M.Phil or MS, or an equivalent degree recognized by the Higher Education Commission, in the relevant subject area, ensuring that instruction in this compulsory component is delivered by an appropriately qualified academic. The notice does not specify a numeric age limit, domicile requirement, or gender restriction, so it is open to male and female applicants alike, consistent with the University of the Punjab's general practice for visiting-faculty calls of this kind; remuneration is expected to follow the University's standard part-time/per-hour visiting-faculty rates rather than a fixed figure stated in the notice itself, and the engagement is understood to run only for the duration of the M.Phil Polymer Technology session being advertised.

Interested candidates should submit their CVs together with complete educational and relevant-experience documents via email, registered post, or in person to the Institute of Polymer & Textile Engineering, University of the Punjab, Quaid-i-Azam Campus, Lahore, no later than 4:00 PM on 2 September 2026. Applications can be emailed directly to info.ipte@pu.edu.pk, offering candidates a straightforward route to apply without needing to visit the campus in person if they prefer. Only short-listed candidates will be called for an interview, and given the approaching closing date, interested applicants are encouraged to prepare and submit their documents as soon as possible rather than waiting until the deadline. As with other visiting-faculty calls advertised through the University of the Punjab's careers page, applicants should retain proof of submission and be prepared to bring original documents for verification if invited for interview.
