ISI Bangalore Faculty Recruitment 2026: Assistant Professor, Associate Professor & Professor

Indian Statistical Institute · Bangalore Centre

The Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) is inviting applications from Indian nationals for permanent faculty positions in the Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Division (TSMD) at its Bangalore Centre.

The current call covers Assistant Professor, Associate Professor and Professor. The official recruitment entry was issued on 15 September 2026 and lists 22 October 2026 as the application-submission deadline.

This CareerAidHub guide separates verified facts from applicant-preparation guidance so candidates can avoid relying on conditions from older ISI advertisements.

Verification note: CareerAidHub verified this opportunity against ISI’s current jobs portal and the official vacancy entry. The accessible listing confirms the three faculty ranks, permanent appointment type, Bangalore Centre, Indian-national eligibility and the deadline. It does not state a numerical vacancy count on the listing, so no vacancy number is inferred here.

2Which Faculty Positions Are Advertised?

ISI’s official recruitment entry names three faculty levels in the TSMD at the Bangalore Centre.

Faculty Rank

Assistant Professor

Suitable applicants should use the rank-specific requirements in the detailed September 2026 advertisement rather than eligibility conditions from previous ISI faculty calls.

Faculty Rank

Associate Professor

The official listing includes Associate Professor as a permanent faculty level in this Bangalore TSMD recruitment.

Faculty Rank

Professor

The recruitment also includes Professor. Applicants should verify the detailed experience and academic requirements in the attached official advertisement.

Important

No Vacancy Number Assumed

The public vacancy listing does not state how many posts are available at each rank. CareerAidHub therefore does not infer a total number of openings.

3About the Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Division

ISI’s Theoretical Statistics and Mathematics Division, often referred to as the Stat-Math Division, has units in Kolkata, Delhi and Bangalore. The division’s current institutional page identifies research areas including:

  • Algebra and Number Theory
  • Complex Analysis
  • Discrete Mathematics
  • Geometry
  • Partial Differential Equations
  • Probability
  • Statistics
Scope note: These are research areas listed by TSMD on its divisional page. Candidates should use the detailed Bangalore recruitment advertisement to determine whether any rank- or call-specific specialization requirement applies to this particular recruitment.

4Eligibility and Candidate Profile

The official vacancy summary states that ISI seeks exceptionally bright and motivated Indian nationals with an established record of high-quality research and development and a strong commitment to teaching.

The public listing itself does not provide the complete rank-wise academic qualification, experience requirement, age condition, pay level or reservation details. Those items should be taken only from the detailed advertisement attached to the official ISI vacancy page.

Do not reuse older criteria: ISI has issued multiple faculty and research advertisements. Applicants should not assume that qualifications, age limits, pay scales, application fees or documentary requirements from an earlier call automatically apply to Advertisement No. PU/507/ADV/806.

Evidence a serious applicant should be ready to present

  • a strong academic and research record relevant to theoretical statistics, mathematics or the specialization specified in the advertisement;
  • peer-reviewed research output and a coherent research trajectory;
  • evidence of teaching capability and commitment to postgraduate and undergraduate education;
  • research-supervision experience appropriate to the faculty rank applied for;
  • evidence of sponsored research, collaboration, consultancy or training where relevant; and
  • a clear fit with the academic needs of TSMD at the Bangalore Centre.

The evidence list above is CareerAidHub application-preparation guidance, not an additional eligibility test.

5Academic Responsibilities

ISI’s official recruitment summary identifies a broad academic role rather than a teaching-only appointment.

Teaching

Undergraduate and postgraduate teaching forms part of the advertised faculty responsibilities.

Research

Faculty members are expected to undertake research and contribute to the Institute’s academic programme.

Research Supervision

Supervision of research scholars and development of research capacity are explicitly included.

Sponsored Research & Consultancy

The role may include sponsored research, consultancy and related academic engagement.

Training

Training activities are included among the functions identified in the official vacancy description.

Institutional Activities

Successful candidates are also expected to participate in wider institutional responsibilities.

6Documents to Prepare

The official job page provides an Application format and a detailed Advertisement – Bangalore Centre as attachments. Candidates should download both from the official vacancy entry before preparing the final submission.

To avoid last-minute preparation, faculty applicants can assemble the following materials in advance, subject to the exact official checklist:

  • completed official ISI application form;
  • updated academic curriculum vitae;
  • educational qualification records;
  • complete publication list;
  • selected research contributions and evidence of impact;

  • research-supervision record, where applicable;
  • sponsored project, consultancy and training experience, where applicable;
  • employment and experience records required for the faculty level;
  • category or other supporting certificates where applicable; and
  • reference information or other supporting documents if requested by the advertisement.

This preparation list is editorial guidance. The attached ISI advertisement and official application format control the actual documentary requirements.

8Application Strategy for Faculty Candidates

Match the application to the correct rank

A strong application should make the case for the particular faculty rank rather than merely presenting a long CV. Organize research, teaching, supervision, projects and service so the evidence is easy to evaluate against the detailed criteria.

Make the research trajectory visible

For research-intensive institutions such as ISI, publication quantity alone is not enough to explain academic fit. Applicants should make their strongest research contributions, methodological depth, current research direction and future programme of work easy to identify.

Do not under-document teaching

The official call specifically emphasizes a strong commitment to teaching and includes both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching among the duties. Teaching evidence should therefore be treated as a core component rather than an afterthought.

Use the Bangalore Centre context

Applicants should review the TSMD Bangalore faculty and research environment before finalizing their statement of fit. This helps distinguish a targeted application from a generic faculty submission.

Verify every administrative detail before submission

Pay level, qualification thresholds, application route, age conditions, reservation provisions and certificates should be taken from the current September 2026 advertisement. Where the official listing and any secondary source differ, the ISI advertisement controls.
