About SMBBMU and Its Constituent Institutions
Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Medical University (SMBBMU) is a public sector medical university in Sindh, established by the Government of Sindh. The university is named in memory of the late Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto and serves as the apex academic authority for several of Sindh’s most prominent medical teaching institutions in the interior of the province.
Chandka Medical College (CMC) in Larkana is one of Sindh’s oldest and most established medical colleges, serving as the primary medical training institution for the Larkana and Sukkur divisions. CMC has historically been the teaching college associated with Chandka Medical College Hospital — one of the major tertiary care hospitals in upper Sindh.
Ghulam Muhammad Mahar Medical College (GMMC) in Sukkur serves as the primary medical education institution for Sukkur and surrounding districts, providing clinical training at Ghulam Muhammad Mahar Hospital. Together, CMC and GMMC provide medical education for a region covering millions of people in interior Sindh who depend on public sector healthcare.
Bibi Aseefa Dental College, Benazir College of Nursing, and the Institute of Pharmacy round out the university’s portfolio of constituent institutions — offering specialized training in dentistry, nursing, and pharmaceutical sciences at tertiary level in Larkana.
PM&DC Registration and Research Publications are both required — confirm yours before applying. The advertisement requires: (a) a copy of your valid or updated PM&DC Registration Certificate, and (b) copies of research papers/publications in journals of national and international repute. For Professor and Associate Professor positions, HEC requires a minimum number of publications as part of the eligibility criteria — typically 10 publications for Professor and 5 for Associate Professor, with specific requirements for journals indexed in recognized databases. Visit HEC’s website to confirm the current faculty eligibility criteria for your specialty and grade before applying. Your PM&DC registration must also be current and unrestricted.
💳 Application Fee: Rs. 3,000 — Non-Refundable
A Pay Order or Bank Demand Draft of Rs. 3,000 (non-refundable) must be included with every application. This must be drawn in favour of: Vice Chancellor, SMBBMU Larkana.
Get the Pay Order or Bank Demand Draft from any bank before preparing your application package. The fee applies to all positions — Professor and Associate Professor alike. Applications without the fee instrument will be incomplete and rejected.
Documents Required — Complete Checklist
The advertisement specifies exactly what must be included with every application. All documents must be compiled in a complete package sent by registered courier:

💡 7 Practical Tips for SMBBMU Faculty Applications
- Confirm HEC’s current minimum publication requirement for your rank and specialty before applying. HEC eligibility criteria for Professor and Associate Professor positions set specific minimum publication counts in HEC-recognized journals. These requirements are updated periodically and vary somewhat by discipline (basic sciences vs. clinical sciences). Before compiling your application, visit hec.gov.pk to confirm the current minimum publication criteria for your grade. If your publication count is at or just above the minimum, list each paper clearly with its journal name, year, and indexing status (HEC-recognized, Scopus, PubMed etc.).
- GMMC Sukkur positions offer a genuine opportunity that many candidates overlook. Several vacancies — including Community Medicine, Pulmonology, Neurology, Gastroenterology, and Cardiology — are specifically for Ghulam Muhammad Mahar Medical College Sukkur. Many qualified faculty candidates in Sindh focus on CMC Larkana applications and underestimate the opportunity at GMMC Sukkur. Competition for GMMC-specific posts may be lower per seat, giving well-qualified candidates from Sukkur, Khairpur, Ghotki, and surrounding areas a strong comparative advantage.
- The Rs. 3,000 fee is per application — not per institution. If you are applying for positions at both CMC and GMMC in the same specialty, confirm whether a single application covers both colleges or whether separate applications (and separate Pay Orders) are required for each college. Contact the SMBBMU HR office at +92-74-9410909 to clarify this before purchasing your Pay Order(s).
- PM&DC registration must be current — verify it before starting your application. The advertisement specifically asks for a “valid/updated PM&DC Registration Certificate.” An expired or lapsed PM&DC/PMC registration is a disqualifier for all clinical and basic sciences faculty positions. Check your registration status at pmc.gov.pk immediately. If it has expired, renew it first — then apply. Do not submit with an expired registration.
- Government / Semi-Government employees — apply through proper channel. The advertisement states that applicants already serving in Government, Semi-Government, or Autonomous Bodies should apply through proper channel. An advance copy of the application may be sent within the due date, but the official application through proper channel must follow. If you are currently serving in a public sector institution, initiate your NOC/proper channel request the day you prepare your application — do not wait until after the deadline.
- Dispatch by June 9 at the latest — not June 15. June 15 is the deadline for your application to arrive at the SMBBMU HR office — not the date you dispatch it. Courier from Karachi to Larkana takes 2–3 days. From Hyderabad, it is similar. From outside Sindh, add more time. Applications that arrive on June 16 due to courier delay are rejected — the advertisement explicitly states late arrivals are not considered. Dispatch by June 9 gives you a 6-day buffer that accounts for any courier delay or public holiday.
- Canvassing will disqualify you — do not contact the committee members. The advertisement explicitly states: “Canvassing in any manner shall amount to disqualification.” This means attempting to contact the selection committee, university officials, or anyone in the appointment chain to influence your application outcome is a direct disqualification trigger. Submit a complete, strong application and let the merit-based process run its course. Pakistan’s public university selection committees take this rule seriously at institutions of SMBBMU’s standing.

(FAQ) Frequently Asked Questions
1. Are these regular government posts or contract appointments?
The advertisement states that positions are offered “on regular/contract basis.” This means the appointment type — whether regular BPS government service or a fixed-term contract — depends on university requirements, Syndicate approval, and applicable government policy at the time of appointment. Both regular and contract faculty are common in Sindh’s public medical universities. The exact nature of your appointment will be specified in your appointment letter if selected.
2. Can a candidate apply for positions at both CMC Larkana and GMMC Sukkur?
The advertisement lists vacancies for both CMC and GMMC for several specialties — particularly at the Associate Professor level. Whether a single application covers both colleges or separate applications are required should be confirmed with the SMBBMU HR office at +92-74-9410909. The safest approach is to call and clarify before submitting — this avoids the risk of your application being considered only for one college when you intended to apply for both.
3. What format should the CV follow for SMBBMU faculty applications?
The advertisement asks for a “brief curriculum vitae” alongside the prescribed application form. For medical faculty positions at BPS-20/21 level, the CV should cover: academic qualifications (MBBS, fellowship details, any higher degrees), professional experience in chronological order (with dates, designation, and institution), current PM&DC registration status and number, research publications listed with journal names and indexing, any international training or fellowships, and academic or administrative positions held. Keep it structured and factual — lengthy CVs with narrative content are less effective than concise, information-dense academic CVs for public sector university appointments.
4. What is the significance of SMBBMU’s constituent institutions for faculty careers?
Chandka Medical College Larkana is one of Sindh’s oldest medical colleges, established in 1973, and it provides clinical training at Chandka Medical College Hospital — a major tertiary care facility serving upper Sindh. Ghulam Muhammad Mahar Medical College Sukkur serves the Sukkur region’s medical education needs. For a faculty member, these institutions provide academic appointment in a university system that covers millions of patients across interior Sindh, with exposure to the full spectrum of tropical and regional disease patterns. Research opportunities in community medicine, infectious diseases, and conditions prevalent in rural Sindh are particularly strong at these institutions.
