UGC NET is a national-level examination conducted by the NTA in India to determine candidates' eligibility for the post of Assistant Professor and for the award of Junior Research Fellowship (JRF). The exam is held twice a year in computer-based mode and consists of two papers: Paper 1 tests general teaching and research aptitude, while Paper 2 assesses subject-specific knowledge. There is no negative marking, and qualifying the exam makes candidates eligible for academic teaching and research opportunities in Indian universities and colleges.
