Tribhuvan University (TU) Issued New Policy: Gold medalist Get Opportunity as a Part-Time Teacher
The Tribhuvan University (TU) has decided to give priority to appointing part-time teachers who get excellent marks in related subjects and get gold medals. By issuing new guidelines on additional classroom management at the university, the university has now paved the way for giving priority to the best students for teaching.
Prof. Dr. Shivlal Bhusal, Dean of Tribhuvan University, informed that the directive has been issued with the objective of managing the teachers in the extra classes of the university in a new way and sent to all the campus heads for implementation. TU has informed that this guideline has been issued with effect from August 17.
Part-time teachers no longer contracted:
According to the new directive, part-time teachers working on TU will no longer be contracted. Earlier, there was a provision in TU to contract a part-time teacher. The services of contract teachers were also ensured. Now, teachers will be appointed and managed in a new way. According to the new guideline, teachers will be paid Rs 15,000 per credit and Rs 500 per period for taking classes under the credit system.
Teachers will be paid on the basis of five months in the case of the semester system and 10 months in the case of the annual system. Provision has been made in the teaching work of Tribhuvan University that no person can be contracted to take less than three credits or less than one hundred integer course or subject in the same academic session.
In addition, the university has taken a policy of involving retired teachers from Tribhuvan University and those on the alternative list in additional results as per the results published by the TU Service Commission. The university has instructed the subordinate campuses to make arrangements for retired teachers to take classes from such teachers if they want to take classes after retirement.
The university has issued a circular to the campuses to select teachers for additional classroom management only after completing the TU Service Commission process after the approval of the central office. Earlier, the campus used to recruit new teachers on its own. Even now, even if the campus appoints new teachers, the provision of approval has been tightened.
Now, even when the campus appoints a part-time teacher, it has to inform the public, select the candidate only by presenting the class and interviewing. In the case of persons working in other bodies, they can be appointed only as experts.
It has been stated that the course agreement can be signed with the teachers who have been selected from the process and the teachers who have been selected procedurally by mid-July 2015. In the case of part-time teachers appointed after July 2015, it has been decided that the concerned department head should make a recommendation within 1st October 2020 to confirm the need for teachers.
