The institute’s current faculty recruitment is being conducted through a rolling advertisement, allowing eligible candidates to submit applications throughout the year. IIT Roorkee states that the minimum qualification and experience requirements may be relaxed for outstanding candidates, subject to the applicable recruitment provisions. The institute also encourages eligible candidates from under-represented groups with strong academic records to apply.
Candidates can apply to more than one department, school or centre, subject to meeting the respective eligibility requirements. Applicants are required to review the requirements applicable to each academic unit before submitting their applications.
Eligible candidates need to register on the IIT Roorkee Faculty Recruitment Portal and activate their account through the registered email address. After logging in, applicants must select the appropriate advertisement and apply for the relevant post and department, school or centre.
The online application requires candidates to provide their basic information, academic qualifications, work experience and professional memberships. Applicants must also upload their photograph, signature and supporting documents before finalising the application.
Candidates can submit their applications through the official faculty recruitment portal. IIT Roorkee’s latest advertisements page lists the 2026 rolling advertisement as an active recruitment notification.
Candidates shortlisted and called for an interview are eligible for reimbursement of travel expenses within India, subject to the institute’s prescribed conditions. IIT Roorkee states that economy-class air tickets must be booked through authorised agents, including IRCTC, BLCL or ATT.
