Understanding the Research Score API Matrix Rules
For candidates applying to Level 13A Associate Professor positions, the screening relies on the Academic Performance Indicator (API) matrix score. Ensure all listed research journal publications match current UGC-CARE list index structures. Providing invalid or unindexed publication records will trigger system adjustments during evaluation, potentially dropping your profile below minimum screening thresholds.
