About the HPPSC Assistant Professor exam

Assistant Professor posts in Himachal Pradesh government colleges are filled by the Himachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (HPPSC), Shimla, subject by subject. The 2026 advertisement covered about 369 posts across 22 subjects (reports quote anywhere from 369 to 410 as posts were added), with a separate online application for each subject on the HPPSC portal.

The qualification asked was a Master's degree with at least 55% marks (50% for reserved categories) plus UGC NET / SLET / SET, or a PhD as per UGC rules; the notification gives the subject-wise conditions and the age limit. Selected candidates join as Job Trainees on a fixed monthly amount before regularisation, as stated in the advertisement.

In the 2026 scheme the written test had two papers on the same day: Paper I (screening, 100 marks, qualifying only) and Paper II (subject aptitude test, 120 marks), followed by a personality test of 30 marks. Final merit was built from Paper II plus the personality test, so Paper I only decides who gets evaluated.

Paper I me Himachal GK, national and international affairs, Hindi aur English aate hain. Yeh qualifying hai, lekin cutoff clear karna zaroori hai. Merit asli me Paper II (apna subject) aur interview se banti hai, isliye subject par sabse zyada time do aur Paper I ke liye roz thoda GK revision karo.

How to prepare: finish your subject at the UGC NET level, then revise Himachal GK and current affairs for Paper I. Start with the free HPPSC Assistant Professor mock test.

Always check the latest official notification for the current exam pattern, syllabus and eligibility.
