KINPOE & CHASCENT PDTP 2026 Jobs for DAE Holders & BSc Grads

KINPOE & CHASCENT Jobs 2026 – PDTP Training Program for DAE Holders and Science Graduates

If you've just finished your DAE or a BSc in the sciences and you've been refreshing job portals every morning hoping something solid shows up — this one's worth stopping for. Karachi Institute of Power Engineering (KINPOE) and Chashma Centre of Nuclear Training (CHASCENT) have opened applications for the Past Diploma Training Program (PDTP) 2026, a paid, one-year training track built specifically for diploma holders and science graduates who want a real foothold in Pakistan's nuclear power sector.

This isn't a random internship posting. It's run by a public sector organization tied to the country's nuclear power infrastructure, and the training itself doubles as a launchpad into a government-scale career. Below is everything you need to know before you apply — eligibility, stipend, required documents, fee details, and the exact steps to submit your application, whether you're applying from Karachi, Mianwali, or anywhere else in Pakistan.

About the KINPOE CHASCENT PDTP 2026 Program

The Past Diploma Training Program is a three-semester, one-year course in Nuclear Power Plant Technology. Training will run simultaneously at two campuses — the Karachi Institute of Power Engineering (KINPOE) in Karachi and the Chashma Centre of Nuclear Training (CHASCENT) in Mianwali — and is expected to begin in July 2027. Where you're placed will depend on your test performance, interview result, and the seats available at each center.

This program is built for two kinds of candidates: Associate Engineers who hold a three-year DAE diploma, and science graduates with a two-year BSc or Associate Degree in Science. Selection is purely merit-based, decided through a written test followed by an interview — so if you're serious about a career in power engineering, this is the kind of opportunity worth preparing for properly.

Who Can Apply – Eligibility Criteria

Only Pakistani and AJK nationals are eligible. Beyond that, you need to meet one of the two academic routes below.

Route 1 — DAE Diploma Holders A three-year Diploma of Associate Engineer, recognized by the Board of Technical Education, with at least first division (60% marks) in both SSC and DAE, in any one of these technologies:

• Chemical
• Electrical
• Electronics
• Mechanical
• Civil
• Computer
• HVAC
• Metallurgy
• Instrumentation & Control

If your diploma falls under a different title, you'll need to attach an equivalence certificate from your respective Board of Technical Education confirming it matches one of the technologies listed above.

Route 2 — BSc / Associate Degree Holders A two-year Bachelor of Science (BSc) or Associate Degree in Science (ADS), majoring in Physics or Chemistry with Mathematics as a compulsory subject, from a university recognized by HEC — with at least first division (60% marks) in SSC, HSC (Pre-Engineering), and BSc.

Age Limit: You must be 25 years or younger as of August 11, 2026 — meaning your date of birth should fall on or after August 11, 2001.

Awaiting Result? If you're expecting a first division but your final result hasn't been announced yet, you can still apply. Just make sure your diploma or degree requirements are fully completed by January 1, 2027, otherwise you won't be allowed to join the program.
