Why there is no any appointment in the department of Geology ?

Dear All,

Geology Department of AMU has a shining account in the past. But in last few years its educational environment has improved a lot and the students are producing far better results as a healthy and competitive educational environment has been created. For achieving this target of success, its teachers have always worked as a better guide.

The thing which most concerns me is that the department of geology has seen this success with its professors retiring one by one all these days. In last 10 years around 6-7 professors have retired and there is an absolute crisis of professors in this department at the moment. As per my information for about four years the only professor left in the department is the one who was appointed by the last selection committee held more than a decade ago. It's very unfortunate that since that time there is not even a single appointment of Professor has ever taken place. The current chairman is a Reader.

Is this not an injustice towards the students who are deprived of the teaching from many professors (who were supposed to be appointed for them as in any other department) who are meant to be a source of higher standard of learning and guidance with their greater research and teaching experience? And would not this have improved exponentially the current rate of success? Is it enough to have a single Professor in a department which runs a Diploma, PG Diploma, Graduation, Post graduation, M. Phil and PhD programmes? Apart from it also helps run newly introduced graduation programme in Women's college? Is there not a minimum allotted number of Professors/ Readers/Lecturers, a Deptt. Of university must have?

There are many senior readers and lecturers in the department who are eligible and waiting to be promoted even under Career Advancement Scheme for years. But this needs a selection committee to be held and when will it take place; no one knows. On the other hand there are lecturers whose classmates have become professors many years back just because they were not in AMU. A teacher is said to be an ultimate architect and designer of humanity and all its forms. But unfortunately if they are not awarded for their work and not given a fair treatment, how can we dream of an improved situation? Even for different other departments, selection committees are taking place; Why not for the department of Geology?? Even there are many branches of Applied Geology which need specialist faculties and many specialized courses are also the need of hour with relation to the changing trend of market demand.

If we truly care for the future of AMU and the betterment of its geology department, the necessary steps need to be taken. I would appreciate if the initiative is taken at the right moment i.e. as soon as possible.
