Higher Education ialogue India Survey for the year 2016-17 shows that the education sector of the country is passing through rapid transformation. Towards D Extensive changes have been introduced not only in higher education, but also at the intermediate and primary level. The institutions, which grabbed big headlines in the media till a few years back have big now vanished from the scene, while those institutions which silently and honestly continued to maintain quality are now shining on top. Change Fact is that, barring a few top players among the private institutions, the position of all the institutions has substantially changed. For the first time amid the government control over the institutions, colleges and schools is visible. Mushrooming of institutions, uncontrolled admission of students like cattle and their promotion in next standards after certain 'nautankis' and formalities challenges have been nothing but an organised loot. Observation of this pathetic condition and widespread cheating on the part of the institutions was highly The big challenge painful for our survey teams. Like various high powered committees, expert before the groups or the studies conducted in the past, our findings about the education policymakers today is system too are disappointing. Our data support the studies that the degree holders being produced in the country every year by majority of the how to transform the institutions are armed with the fake certificates and about 80 to 90 per cent education system so of those who have genuine degrees too are unemployable. If this is the that it generates more situation, we have indeed jumped into an unending dark hole. The country is employment avenues. crawling on the strength of 10 per cent qualified persons or the traditional Apart from research, knowledge of the rest 90 per cent 'qualified' but unemployable people. we need to focus on A good number of students who are shown studying in the government schools in most of the small towns, cities or villages by government agencies innovations and actually study private schools after paying hefty fees. But the English medium entrepreneurship. education received at these so-called public schools does not help them much Otherwise, all the after they complete 12th standard and appear for any competitive exam for efforts of rankings or job or higher studies. They have to depend upon the tuition or coaching surveys will prove to be syndicates where they are taught the techniques to qualify the exam by futile. adopting shortcuts. Hence, some of them become part of any reputed government institution and some land in any higher education institution. Despite that, the story that the above facts state force us to introspect deeper. During the survey, we experienced an earthquake type of shakes in the field of private education. Since the courts and regulatory bodies have started acting tough for the last two-three years the admissions in hundreds of higher educational institutions have drastically decreased or some institutions have reached at the verge of closer. Mandatory use of Aadhar Card, biometric attendance of staff and students, pan card, strict admission rules based on standards, single entrance, curb on charging capitation fees, online monitoring and extensive use of IT etc have all changed the rules of the game. Now nobody is seen advising to open educational institution to make money. The continuous closer of some of the institutions indicate to the same situation. In fact, about two third of the engineering, management, medical or dental institutions are in very poor condition. Many have been closed down or are at the verge of closer. Not only this, many so-called reputed private universities also are at the verge of closer. During the last few years, the FIRST DIALOGUE engineering, management, medical or dental collages that have shown good results are fast being converted into deemed universities. Many big industrial and business groups have also opened their own universities. Comparatively, it is a welcome trend, because earlier the institutions were run either by some builders, liquor mafias, corrupt politicians or bureaucrats. They used the education sector only to make money by adopting unfair means and indulging in malpractices. Fortunately, the disappointing era seems to be over and those players who have been serious all the time remain in the race. But now some new challenges are knocking the door. It needs no elaboration that our entire education model has been copied from the West. It has neither originality nor the indigenous sprit. It also does not develop the feeling of nationality. The youth who get education through the country's state funded system easily hand over their knowledge, skills or talent to the multi-national companies. And after doing that they feel proud! It needs immediate action, because such youth are swiftly adopting the alien culture also and have developed inferiority complex towards their own country, language and culture. Another fact is that majority of the industries or business houses are fast adopting IT and automation. Almost all the successful institutions are today changing their syllabus, labs or faculty members accordingly. But in this process, the use of human resources is gradually decreasing, which is adversely affecting the employment generation. The work which used to be done by 10, 20 or 30 engineers till some time back is now done by 1 or 2 engineers only. This indicates to the grave situation of unemployment, which will be before us in coming days. Additionally, there is a campaign against our IT professionals across the world. In this situation, the big challenge before the policymakers today is how to transform the education system so that it generates more employment avenues. Apart from research, we need to speedily focus on innovations and entrepreneurship. Otherwise, all the efforts of rankings, conducting studies or surveys will prove to be futile. ANUJ AGRAWAL Editor

500 MBBS STUDENTS LOSE SEATS IN 17 COLLEGES Medical education regulator Medical Council of India (MCI) has cancelled the admission of 519 MBBS students enrolled in 17 colleges. They have been attending classes for last three months. MCI has said that the colleges admitted students directly, violating a Supreme Court order of September 28, 2016, directing the state government to hold centralised counselling and allot colleges to students based on their performance in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). “While scrutinising the admissions process, we found that 17 colleges in three states have given direct admission to 519 students in violation of the SC order,” a senior MCI official said in response to an RTI. The matter was being investigated and more admission cancellations were expected. This is also the first time that such a large number of students have been asked to leave the MBBS programme for not complying with the admission process. The highest number of violations were in Uttar Pradesh by 14 colleges giving direct admission to 481 students. Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu have one college each with 38 students admitted in total. The medical colleges involved defended their move to admit the students, saying the counselling process was very slow and filing up seats by the admission deadline (October, 7, 2016, in this case) was not possible. That was when they decided to give direct admission instead of letting seats remain vacant, college authorities said.

AICTEÊS NEW GUIDELINES MAKING STUDENTS JOB READY

he All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), the regulatory body overseeing technical education in T the country, has issued new guidelines to ensure that graduates go beyond just earning a degree and are taught practical and employable skills by technical colleges. The new guidelines include designing industry- friendly courses, and finding internship opportunities for students in suitable industries. Here’s how AICTE plans to make technical courses more industry-friendly: IITs gear up to improve student performance 1. Technical colleges across India will have an industry Seventeen first year students this year were asked to consultation committee. discontinue classes because of underperformance at IIT 2. The committee will revamp the curriculum of technical Roorkee.
