Rawalpindi Women University (RWU) has advertised seven teaching positions on a regular basis under the Contributory Pension Scheme, plus one statutory Treasurer post on a contract basis. This is worth reading as two genuinely separate hiring tracks rather than one flat list — the teaching posts and the Treasurer post follow completely different eligibility structures, contract terms, and even pension arrangements.

Statutory Post — Treasurer (Contract Basis, Non-Extendable)
Treasurer (BS-20, 01 post)
- Age: 40 to 50 years
- Qualification (three separate routes, any one qualifies):
- PhD in Finance/Commerce/Accounting/Auditing/Economics from an institute or university recognized by the Higher Education Commission, plus 8 years’ post-qualification relevant experience; OR

- MBA in Finance/M.Com/ACCA/ACMA or M.Sc in Economics (2nd division), or equivalent qualification from an HEC-recognized institute or university, plus 12 years’ post-qualification relevant experience
Why the Treasurer Post Sits in a Different Category Entirely
Notice the Treasurer’s contract is explicitly labeled “03 Year Contract Basis — Non-Extendable” — a fixed, one-time term with no renewal built in, unlike the teaching posts which run on a regular basis with pension benefits. If you’re weighing whether a finance-track statutory post here offers similar long-term security to a faculty appointment, it doesn’t: this is a defined three-year engagement and nothing beyond that is promised.
Application Fee Differs by Post Type
The ad specifies a processing fee of Rs. 5000/-, payable via Bank Draft in favor of “The Rawalpindi Women University, Rawalpindi.” This fee applies per application — and since candidates applying for more than one position must submit separate applications with separate documents for each post, the fee is cumulative if you’re applying to multiple positions.
A Preference Clause Worth Knowing About
Item 17 of the terms states: “Preference will be given to women subject to merit.” This is phrased as a preference rather than an outright restriction — the ad doesn’t state that male candidates are ineligible to apply — but given this is a women’s university, it’s a meaningful factor to weigh if you’re a male applicant considering the CS/IT-heavy Assistant Professor posts, where competition will likely be assessed with this preference clause in play.
How to Apply

- No TA/DA is paid for test or interview
- The University reserves the right to increase/decrease the number of posts, withhold, or withdraw the appointment against any advertised post
Given how heavily this recruitment leans toward Computer Science and Information Technology across nearly every teaching post, it’s worth checking Faculty Jobs regularly for similar CS/IT academic openings — universities in Rawalpindi and Islamabad have been running parallel hiring rounds in this specific field this year.
Based on a newspaper advertisement published in Daily The News, September 17, 2026 (IPL-9693). Confirm complete eligibility criteria and application form requirements directly at rwu.edu.pk before applying.
