Hi,
The National Eligibility Test (NET) is the national level entrance examination in India for postgraduate candidates who wish to qualify for university level teaching jobs in India and/or admission to PhD research programmes. The test is conducted for over 90 different disciplines.
For the science and engineering disciplines, it is jointly conducted by Council of Scientific and Industrial Research and University Grants Commission. For the rest of the disciplines it is administered by the University Grants Commission alone.
The basic objective is to determine eligibility for college & university level lectureship for Indian nationals in order to ensure minimum standards for the entrants in the teaching profession and research.
Eligibility- Candidates who have secured at least 55% marks (without rounding off) in Master’s Degree OR equivalent examination from universities/institutions recognised by UGC in Humanities (including languages) and Social Science, Computer Science & Applications, Electronic Science etc. are eligible for this Test. The SC/ST/PWD category candidates who have secured at least 50% marks (without rounding off) in Master’s degree or equivalent examination are eligible for this Test.
Candidates who have appeared OR will be appearing at the qualifying Master’s degree (final year) examination and whose result is still awaited OR candidates whose qualifying examinations have been delayed may also apply for this Test. However, such candidates will be admitted provisionally and shall be considered eligible for award of JRF/Assistant Professor eligibility only after they have passed their Master’s degree examination or equivalent with at least 55% marks (50% marks in case of SC/ST/PWD category candidates). Such candidates must complete their P.G. degree examination within two years from the date of NET result with required percentage of marks, failing which they shall be treated as disqualified.
