PATNA: Faced with acute faculty shortage, Pataliputra University (PPU) has initiated the process of appointment of guest lecturers on temporary basis in science, arts and commerce streams. Candidates in science stream will be interviewed at the university headquarters from June 11 to 15.

According to sources, the university has already started 11 PG departments at different centres from the current academic session. It has also sent a proposal to the state government for its approval for appointment of teachers for the PG courses.
