As per the UGC regulations, an assistant professor/ lecturer, must holds a PhD degree, will be promoted to the Associate Professor post after the completion of about 12 years of service. Or, candidates who are working with a M.Phil degree or a PG degree in a professional course will be then moved to the Associate Professor post after the completion of 13 years of service.
