Thanks & Regards, Kamal Pal Singh You can apply for a lectureship based on your clearing/ qualifying the National Eligibility Test for lectureship. Choice of MPhil or PhD can be explored on the basis of your location. You may check with any university offering a post graduate programme in tourism management or management even, about the possibility of either programme. Some universities may offer admission directly on the basis of merit, that is, marks secured in the master's degree, while others may conduct an entrance test or use the NET scores. However, at this point, you can also apply for teaching positions on the basis of your post graduate degree and later acquire the necessary qualifications or clear the necessary tests for MPhil/ PhD for securing permanent positions.
