Sommario:
  • <p>The research paper examines faculty shortages, recruitment challenges, and<br>their impact on the quality and equity of higher education in Telangana. The primary<br>objectives are to analyse the extent of faculty gaps, evaluate their implications for<br>institutional performance and inclusiveness, and suggest measures to strengthen<br>recruitment and academic systems. The study is based on secondary data collected<br>from government reports, research articles, and newspapers such as TSCHE, AICTE,<br>UGC, CESS, The Times of India, and Telangana Today. A descriptive and analytical<br>approach has been adopted, combining quantitative data on faculty positions,<br>enrolment trends, and institutional distribution with qualitative insights on<br>recruitment practices and working conditions.<br>The findings reveal a significant shortage of teaching staff across colleges<br>and universities, with many institutions experiencing 20–30% vacancies. Data on<br>sanctioned and working positions show a large gap, indicating delays in recruitment<br>and administrative inefficiencies. The shortage has led to increased reliance on<br>contract and part-time faculty, who often face low pay, limited benefits, and lack of<br>career advancement opportunities. This situation has adversely affected academic<br>quality, student enrolment, and research output. The study also highlights disparities<br>in faculty representation, with marginalized communities being underrepresented in<br>premier institutions, raising concerns about equity and inclusiveness.</p>
