CUSB Selection Process 2026
Teaching posts. There is no written examination. The Academic Score as specified in Appendix II, Table 3A of the UGC Regulations, 2018 is considered for shortlisting candidates for the interview, and the final selection is based only on performance in the interview. If a large number of applications are received for a post, the university may restrict the number of candidates called for the interview on the basis of an academic score higher than the minimum prescribed, as decided by the Screening Committee. Call letters for the interview are sent to shortlisted candidates by email only.
Non-teaching posts. Advertisement No. CUSB/Advt./50/2026 does not specify a selection process — it contains no mention of a written test, skill test or interview for these 6 posts. Candidates should not rely on selection details circulating from older CUSB advertisements; any selection method for these posts will be notified by the university on cusb.ac.in.
CUSB Salary 2026
Teaching appointees are placed in the 7th CPC academic pay levels fixed in Advertisement No. 49/2026:

| Associate Professor | Level 13A | Rs 1,31,400 – Rs 2,17,100 |
| Assistant Professor | Level 10 | Rs 57,700 – Rs 1,82,400 |
For the non-teaching posts, Advertisement No. 50/2026 gives only the 7th CPC pay levels — Level 12 (Internal Audit Officer), Level 10 (Medical Officer), Level 6 (Assistant and Junior Engineer), Level 4 (Laboratory Assistant) and Level 2 (Lower Division Clerk) — and no rupee amounts. The advertisements fix only the pay levels and matrices above; they publish no exact in-hand salary figure, so in-hand amounts shown on unofficial websites are estimates that vary with the current DA, HRA and posting location.
