BCECEB Senior Resident / Tutor 2026 (III) vacancy details

The panel is being made at the request of the Health Department, Government of Bihar (letter dated 3 October 2026) for vacant Senior Resident / Tutor posts in the state's medical colleges and hospitals. The appointment is a tenure of three years. There are 575 posts across ten departments, from 33 in Geriatrics to 72 in Radiotherapy. Within each category 35% of posts are for women, 19 posts are reserved for candidates with disabilities and 1 post for grandchildren of freedom fighters, both as horizontal reservation. The notice says the subject-wise and category-wise numbers may change and any change will be told at counselling.

Eligibility and age limit

You need a post-graduate degree in the subject you apply for; DNB and DNB Super Speciality count under the NMC faculty regulation of 2025. In the non-medical side of Anatomy and Physiology, a Medical M.Sc with a Ph.D. is compulsory. A diploma is considered only when suitable candidates are short; it earns the same 10 points as a degree, but diploma holders are placed below degree holders in the merit list. Age is counted on 1 August 2026: up to 37 for unreserved men, 40 for unreserved women and backward classes, and 42 for SC and ST. Bihar Health Service doctors get 5 more years and candidates with disabilities 10 more, but only one relaxation can be claimed. Anyone who has already completed a 3-year Senior Resident / Tutor tenure in the same subject is not eligible.

How the merit points are counted

There is no written test. Points are given for the total of the three MBBS university exams and for marks in the speciality subject, each on a scale from 1 point above 50% to 5 points above 70%. An MD or MS in the speciality adds 10 points, and a Ph.D., DM or M.Ch in the same speciality adds another 10. Government or semi-government experience in Bihar earns 2 points per full year, up to 10. The interview has been abolished, so every candidate gets 6 points. A candidate needs at least 16 points to be appointed, and where a subject has only one or two vacancies the top scorer from the BHS, PGS or PGO group is preferred.

Fee and important dates

Everyone pays the same counselling fee of ₹2250, online only, plus the payment processing charge. Online registration runs from 2 November 2026 to 23 November 2026 (10 pm), payment and final submission are allowed up to 23 November 2026 (11.59 pm), and entries can be edited online until 24 November 2026 (11.59 pm).
