Historically India has been a world leader in higher learning. Our universities like Nalanda and Takshashila were foremost learning centers of the world. The profound knowledge of these centres attracted scholars from across the world. After these seats of learning ceased to exist, great universities of the western world came into being, marking the shift in knowledge production and dissemination from the East to the West.

We need to restore our rightful place and make our universities and colleges producers of knowledge for the world. In this endeavour, the government is committed to ensuring that our higher education institutions achieve the highest levels of global excellence in teaching and research. To start with, it is proposed to provide an enabling regulatory architecture to tenpublic and private institutions each to emerge as world-class Teaching and Research Institution. They would be facilitated by giving autonomy on academic, administrative and financial matters. It will enable meritorious and talented students of India and abroad, irrespective of their financial status, to realize their dreams and enroll for getting highest quality knowledge, taught by renowned global knowledge providers.

The above initiative is the beginning of our journey to restore the original mandate of higher education regulators, as facilitators and guides, driven by norms of self-disclosure and transparency, instead of top-down command and control and micromanagement, in the quest to achieve world-class standards in all colleges and universities. This would enable our universities to become leading global centers of knowledge production.

The aim is seek comments /views/suggestions from citizens on following documents:

i. Policy on Establishment of World Class Institutions
ii. UGC (Declaration of Government Educational Institutions as World Class Institutions) Guidelines, 2016
iii. UGC (World Class Institutions Deemed to be Universities) Regulations, 2016

You can share your Comments/Views/Suggestions on Draft Guidelines and Regulations for establishment of World Class Institutions by 28.10.2016.

All governmnet companies from all sectors to provide summer apprentice training both technical and non technical which can be a part of skill India development. Application and recruitment to it should be transparent. Six months external pilot group projects can be started as a part of curriculum which should be in coordination with industries and should be on real time problems

Admissions to M.Tech. and PhD should be made more transparent as in M.Tech. and PhD admissions are made based more on relations and contact rather than talent based. More over admission preference to PhD is given to those students who have done M.Tech. from that very college itself. Interview for M.Tech. and PhD should be done completely by bench of external faculty from different college. E.g.. for admission in IIT Kanpur interview should be taken by faculty of any other IIT as decided MHRD..

4)encourage companies to tie up with institutes and train students as per their job requirement. 5)Teachers training: Train teachers in how to use animation, educational videos during classroom discussion 6)Train students in piloting UAVs,IOT,3D printing and other such field where jobs are shifting. 7)make it compulsory for students to have field work (like internship) this will help them to recognise need of people in real life

1)keep updating syllabus frequently: As technology is changing very rapidly but syllabus of our btech courses teaches us the same what students 3 decades back had been taught. 2)Remove 75% compulsory attendance rule: 18+ Students can think about their future and so there is no need of forcing them to learn in a specific manner(chalk and board). 3)focus on colleges other than IITs:- In name of higher edu most changes take place in IITs only what about other regional and NIT colleges.

Also, I cannot understand how subjects like sanskrit can b encouraged with mere autonomy n without govt funding. Asking institutes to find sponsors 4 themselves is no solution.

Our education should b freed from d clutches of degrees n certificates. Eg. non-phds must b allowed to take up research projects. A person can do 3-4 small projects in d time he completes his good-4-nothing phd. When u r seeking solutions 4 skill certification, why not find ways 2 recognise non-certified talent in edu sector?
