The University Grants Commission (UGC) (Ministry of Education, Government of India) launched CU- Chayan portal for a unified recruitment portal for Central Universities on 2nd May 2023. The unified recruitment Portal was designed and developed specifically for Central Universities. The portal provides a common platform for listing vacancies/advertisements/ jobs across all the Central Universities. The portal makes the recruitment process completely online starting from inviting applications with the provisions of sending alerts in runtime to all users of the portal. 

The UGC had developed this portal to create an enabling environment for both universities and the applicants with universities driving all stages of the recruitment process independently, as is being done at present in the respective university.

Prof. Manish R. Joshi, Secretary of UGC issued the notification vide D.O. No. 85-1/ 2022 (CU) dated 3rd May 2023 directing all the Central Universities to use the CU-Chayan portal for all future recruitments by using the link https://curec.samarth.ac.in. Further, Central University home page and/ or in the print medium.
