Academic Associate — English

We invite applications for the role of Academic Associate for English for our Undergraduate Programmes at the Bhopal campus.

Azim Premji University, Bhopal, started operations in August 2023, offering postgraduate and undergraduate programmes.

We expect to grow to about 4000 students and 500 members over the next few years.

The members joining in this role will contribute to the courses in the undergraduate programme at the University in Bhopal. This is a 2‑year full-time position.

The work hours need to be flexible, as the expectation is out of classroom hours.
