Short Information: Uttarakhand Medical Service Selection Board (UKMSSB) has released a detailed advertisement for direct recruitment to 54 faculty posts in Government Medical Colleges of Uttarakhand — 8 Professor and 46 Associate Professor positions spread across departments like General Medicine, General Surgery, Anaesthesia, Pediatrics, Orthopedics, Radiodiagnosis, and more. Professor posts carry Pay Level-14 (₹1,44,200-₹2,18,200), while Associate Professor posts carry Pay Level-13(A) (₹1,31,100-₹3,16,600), both Gazetted positions with contributory pension benefits under the Medical Education Department. This is a rare opportunity for medical academicians, since direct recruitment drives for senior faculty cadres in state medical colleges don't come around often. Eligible candidates must meet the latest NMC-TEQ Regulations (30 June 2025) for medical teacher qualifications, hold a valid and renewed registration with any State Medical Council in India, and clear the age criteria — minimum 30 years for Associate Professor and 35 years for Professor, with an upper limit of 62 years as on 01 July 2025. Selection doesn't involve a written exam; instead it runs on a 100-mark evaluation covering paper publications, teaching/clinical experience, additional qualifications like DM/MCh/DNB Super Specialty, and a 50-mark interview. Online applications open on 09 July 2026 and close on 29 July 2026 at 5:00 PM, with a one-time correction window from 31 July to 03 August 2026.

💡 Expert Tip
Since selection here runs purely on marks (Paper Publication 20 + Experience 20 + Additional Qualification 10 + Interview 50 = 100), your online form entries for publications, experience, and extra qualifications are final — the Board will not consider any claim made only at document verification stage that wasn't entered in the form itself, so double-check every entry before submitting. Only experience from Government/Central/Autonomous Government hospitals and medical colleges counts; private-sector experience gets zero weight. If you're currently in regular Central or State Government service, a Departmental No Objection Certificate is mandatory, and your OBC/EWS category certificate must remain valid right up to the last date of application — an expired certificate at submission time means outright rejection with no fee refund.
