The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has not yet issued the notification for the UGC NET 2017. The notification was expected on Monday.
According to a notification issued earlier this month, the National Eligibility Test will be conducted on November 5. The application process will continue until August 30 and the last date to pay the fee is August 31.
The examination is conducted on behalf of University Grants Commission (UGC) to determine the eligibility of candidates for the post of assistant professor in Indian universities and colleges or for both Junior Research Fellowship and assistant professor. However, the July round has been skipped this year.
Candidates who qualify for the JRF are eligible to pursue research in the subject of their post-graduation or in a related subject and are also eligible to apply for the post of an assistant professor in Indian universities and colleges.
The award of JRF and eligibility for assistant professor’s post depends on the performance of the candidate in all the three papers of NET. However, candidates qualifying exclusively for an assistant professor are not considered for JRF.
Candidates who have scored at least 55% in their master’s degree are eligible for NET.
