University of Salamanca Faculty Positions 2026: Requirements and Deadlines for Accredited Doctors

Key data

If you are an accredited doctor and aspire to a civil service position at the University of Salamanca, the clock is already ticking. The Resolution of July 1, 2026 activates the competitive examination for university teaching staff positions, with an application deadline of 15 business days from its publication in the Official Gazette on July 7, 2026. There is no room for delays: the application is exclusively online and requires a digital certificate.

The process is governed by the Organic Law of the University System (LOSU) and Royal Decree 678/2023, the regulatory framework that regulates competitive examinations for university teaching staff positions in Spain. Each position follows an independent procedure, although the resolution allows grouping positions with identical profiles.

What does this regulation establish?

The resolution calls for a competitive examination for university teaching staff positions at the University of Salamanca. Below are the key elements of the process:

A relevant aspect: although each position has its own procedure, the resolution contemplates the possibility of grouping positions with identical profiles, which can simplify management for candidates applying for multiple positions with the same characteristics.

Economic and operational impact

For candidates, the main impact is not economic in the strict sense, but rather one of professional opportunity and job stability. Obtaining a civil service position in university teaching staff means:

• Indefinite job stability as a career civil servant in the public university.
• Access to the salary scale of the corresponding teaching body, regulated by university civil service regulations.
• Subject to public personnel incompatibility regime, which may affect parallel private activities that the candidate is conducting.

For the University of Salamanca itself, the call involves filling vacant positions in specific fields of knowledge, consolidating its permanent teaching staff under the new LOSU framework.

Operationally, the critical point for candidates is the preparation of the digital certificate and familiarization with the USAL electronic office before the 15 business day deadline expires. A technical error in online submission may result in exclusion from the process.

Who does it affect?

• Doctors with state accreditation for any of the university teaching bodies called.
• Spanish, EU, or citizens from countries with reciprocity who meet the nationality requirement.
• Researchers and teachers in temporary or associate contract situations seeking stabilization as civil servants.
• Professors with current accreditation who do not already belong to the same teaching body in the same field of knowledge within USAL.
• Departments and fields of knowledge at the University of Salamanca that have positions called and must participate in selection committees.

Practical example

Suppose a doctor in Administrative Law has state accreditation for the position of University Associate Professor, obtained through ANECA. She currently works as a contracted doctor professor at another Spanish university.

When this resolution is published on July 7, 2026, she has 15 business days to submit her application. The process she must follow is:

1. Verify that the called position corresponds to her field of knowledge and the teaching body for which she is accredited.
2. Check that she does not already belong to the same teaching body in the same field at USAL (in her case, she does not: she works at another university).
3. Access the USAL electronic office with her digital certificate and complete the online application.
4. Review the incompatibility regime that would apply if she obtained the position, especially if she combines her teaching activity with private consulting or advisory services.

If the position has the same profile as another called simultaneously, both could be grouped in a single procedure, simplifying processing.

What should candidates do now?

1. Verify current state accreditation for the teaching body applied for. Without accreditation, participation is not possible.
2. Check compliance with nationality requirements: Spanish, EU, or from a country with recognized reciprocity.
3. Review incompatibility: ensure you do not already belong to the same teaching body in the same field of knowledge at USAL.
4. Prepare the digital certificate in advance and verify access to the USAL electronic office before the deadline expires.
5. Submit the application online within 15 business days from July 7, 2026. Paper applications and late submissions are not accepted.
6. Review the public personnel incompatibility regime to anticipate what private activities should be modified or ceased if you obtain the position.
7. Consult the complete resolution in the Official Gazette (BOE-A-2026-14720) to learn about the specific positions called and their specific profiles.
