Alva’s Institute of Agricultural Sciences & Technology

We are Alva's Institute of Agricultural Sciences & Technology at Mijar, Moodbidire, in Karnataka's Dakshina Kannada district. Our institutional focus connects agricultural sciences with technology, including the engineering of food processes. The advertised opportunity is situated in Food Engineering, a specialised area concerned with the technical principles used in processing, preserving and handling food.

We are inviting Assistant Professor applications from candidates whose qualifications connect Food Technology with Food Engineering. The required sequence is a BTech in Food Technology, an MTech in Food Engineering and a PhD. This combination gives the role a more specific academic profile than a general agriculture or science teaching vacancy. Applicants should identify their doctoral subject and describe how their studies relate to food processing, preservation and engineering.

The teaching work includes Food Engineering subjects, practical learning and student project guidance. The role also involves research, publication activity and participation in the academic development of the discipline. Candidates should be able to explain technical ideas clearly while maintaining the engineering depth of the subject. The stated candidate profile values an interest in innovation and sustainable food practices. These themes link the department's educational work with the practical challenges of the food sector.

Applications are accepted through the Alva's recruitment address. The institute asks for an updated biodata presenting academic and professional details. There is no published numerical minimum of prior employment experience, so applicants should describe their actual teaching and research experience rather than assume that a separate minimum applies.

Candidates must hold BTech in Food Technology, MTech in Food Engineering and a PhD. Salary follows applicable norms. The subject combination is explicit: applicants should provide the precise names of their degrees and supporting certificates, together with relevant teaching or research achievements.
