University of Okara Jobs 2026 – 7 Associate Professor Posts, Last Date 21 September

University of Okara Jobs 2026

The University of Okara, a public sector university of the Government of Punjab located on Multan Road, Okara, has invited applications under Advertisement No. 06/2026 (press reference IPL-9109) for seven Associate Professor posts in BS-20. The disciplines named in the advertisement are Sociology, English, Law, Botany and Zoology. The positions are offered on regular, Tenure Track System (TTS) or contract terms, and eligibility is governed by Higher Education Commission criteria read together with the University of Okara Employees Statutes, 2021.

This is a senior faculty advertisement. An Associate Professor post in BS-20 sits one rung below Professor, and HEC criteria for that level normally require a PhD in the relevant field together with a substantial record of post-PhD teaching or research experience and published work in HEC recognised journals. The advertisement itself points applicants to the HEC criteria and the university statutes for the exact requirements rather than repeating them in the press notice, so candidates should read those two documents before deciding whether to apply.

The advertisement appeared in the press on 4 September 2026 and the closing date for applications is 21 September 2026. Applications are on the university’s prescribed form, which is to be downloaded from the university website (www.uo.edu.pk), and must be accompanied by an original bank draft or deposit slip for the processing fee.

Two points deserve a plain statement. First, the press advertisement lists the Associate Professor posts against male candidates while also stating that the university encourages women, persons with disabilities and minorities to apply; applicants should read the original advertisement to see how the gender column applies to each post. Second, at the time of writing the university’s own careers page had not yet displayed Advertisement No. 06/2026, so the details below come from the published press advertisement as reproduced by a job listing service. Where the press notice does not state a figure, we have written “not stated”.
