Visiting O&P Faculty Opportunities for Fall 2026

Pakistan’s growing Orthotics & Prosthetics profession has received another encouraging boost as Khwaja Fareed University of Engineering and Information Technology (KFUEIT), Rahim Yar Khan, has announced visiting faculty positions for the Fall 2026 Semester, with Orthotics & Prosthetics included among the disciplines seeking qualified academic staff. 

The advertisement invites applications for the positions of Assistant Professor, Lecturer, and Teaching Assistant on a visiting, stipend, or contingent-paid basis. For Orthotics & Prosthetics professionals, the announcement represents an important opportunity to become involved in higher education, clinical teaching, and the development of Pakistan’s future rehabilitation workforce. 

According to the university’s eligibility criteria, applicants for Lecturer positions should possess an MS or M.Phil. (First Division) in the relevant discipline, while Teaching Assistant applicants should hold a Master’s degree or BS (Second Division). Candidates applying for Assistant Professor positions must meet the Higher Education Commission (HEC) requirements for the relevant academic rank. 

KFUEIT has been expanding its Institute of Health Sciences and has also been promoting admissions to its BS Orthotics & Prosthetics program, reflecting the increasing recognition of rehabilitation sciences within Pakistan’s higher education sector. 

The availability of faculty positions in Orthotics & Prosthetics is a positive development for the profession. As Pakistan continues to strengthen rehabilitation services and improve access to assistive technology, universities require experienced clinicians, educators, and researchers who can prepare graduates with the knowledge and practical skills needed to serve individuals with physical disabilities and mobility impairments.

OPPAK encourages eligible Orthotics & Prosthetics professionals who meet the prescribed qualifications to consider applying and contributing to the education and professional development of the next generation of orthotists and prosthetists.
