Flaws in Indian higher education system Arguably since
independence Indian higher education system is considered to be a faulty
system nike air
max 2015 suomi , even though we have created institutes likes of
IISC, IITs, IIMs, NITs, AIIMS, PGI and many reputed universities likes of
JNU,DU, Allahabad University, BHU, AMU, Bombay University etc. but still when we
check globally any of our Institute does not stand in the TOP-200 list of world.
Some of the major reasons which can easily be pointed out are: 1. Time is being
wasted on assessing the problems, rather than finding solutions Lets look at the
service and solution providers as an example. You go and attend any educational
conference there will be hour long speeches, expert panel discussions and
solutions from experts in the industry. The conclusions will be similar –
Attitude needs to change, We need to get back to the basics, Funding needs to
increase, Structural and design changes nike air max 1
suomi , Awareness needs to increase and my personal favorite, We
need more data and analysis and so on 2. Gap between supply and demand Indias
gross enrollment ratio (GER) -GER stands for Gross Enrollment Rate, or the
percentage of students enrolling into higher education institutes each year post
high school. is around 19 percent at the moment which is 6 % below the world
average and 50 % lesser than countries such as Australia and the USA. India has
the largest population of teens with close to 100 million in number between 17
to 19. But each year only 19 % students enroll into higher education institutes
which roughly is equal to 20 million it means whopping 81 % or 80 million in
number who do not have the opportunity to study even if they wanted to. And
further worst that only 3.5 million graduates join the workforce each year among
these 20 million. So, There is a massive gap that is created due to the
difference in the number of schools and higher education institutes that really
needs to be bridged. 3. Mushrooming of low quality, money making Institutes. As
a result of that huge gap, people who should not be in the field of education
want to capitalize on this gap Its no secret that the education industry is now
turned into a business. Politicians, realtors, businessmenwomen – basically
anybody who wants to mint some serious cash, start to open colleges. 4. Indias
obsession with the service industry. Since the era of globalization India Inc
saw a gradual shift from being a manufacturing hub to a service provider. This
was fueled mainly by the boom in I.T and B.P.O industries, and has had a large
role to play in the way our education system has been modeled in the past almost
two decades. Along with the I.T and B.P.O industries, even our education
institutes started seeing themselves as service providers, rather than being a
place where the students were molded into innovators and architects of the
future. The service they provided was that of certifying graduates as employable
by the service industry. 5. Ineffective Foreign Education Providers Bill In
September of 2013, the government of India passed an executive order to allow
the top 400 universities in the world to set up campuses in India and allow them
to function independently, without the requirement of Local Partners. This
sounded promising and one can see the possibilities when universities such as
Duke University and Georgia Tech, both among the top fifty U.S Universities,
started to show interest.As always fine print seems to spoil the goods.

out of the country, Secondly, they have to deal with getting permissions from
the UGC. Everybody knows how that can be a problem – right people, right amount
of money and you may still get the short end of the stick.The foreign education
providers Bill can be more effective if steps are taken to coolly regulate them
similar to their Singapore and Dubai counter parts – granting quick permissions,
infrastructure and subsidies. These countries are quickly emerging as top
quality higher education hubs for students from around the world. 6. Lack of
relevant opportunities and project based learning Most of us living in the
cities have had the privilege of studying in some of the better institutions.
But the way they function is a far cry from their more superior counterparts
across the globe, nor are they that much better than their inferior counterparts
locally. There is a reason not a single Indian University ranks in the world top
200. Even at top institutes, students are force fed a few kilos of textbooks,
spend a relatively short time on hands-on project based learning and are
absorbed into fields irrelevant to their subjects. To put things into
perspective, engineering graduates have to study about 40 subjects – thats close
to 250,000 pages worth of information, spend an average of 6000 hours attending
classes out of which only 500 hours are spent interacting in Labs across 4
years, have to write 120 internal assessment papers and 50 main exams, undertake
a couple of \projects\ which was probably stolen from their seniors and let\s
not even get into the amount of time and resources spent on travelling and
studying. And then after all that effort, most of them get jobs in the I.T
service industry which has absolutely nothing to do with what they learnt. Only
15 % are lucky enough to get into relevant industries.Oh and did I forget to
mention that 85 % of graduates are considered unemployable due to lack of
relevant Industry experience Where on earth are these students supposed to get
Relevant Industry Experience if they are busy eating outdated textbooks instead
of some industry relevant training and project based learning Conclusion: The
above points are just the pointers and presented in a superficial perspective,
one really needs to dig deep to understand the real complexities. The government
alone cant make improvements as much as it is their job. Reforms that are not n
