With plenty of resources, the aspirants of these institutes have gained an extra...
Getting into IITs is a dream of many.
For some, the word “Engineering” sparks an endless hunger for innovation.
While for many others it’s the rosy future guaranteed by an engineering degree.
We Indians are so proud to say that many of our engineering graduates score a decent job and even go on to serve as the CEOs of Fortune 500 Companies.
Have you ever thought how many universities do we have in India?
Well, India has more than 1,000 Universities (as of April 2022) and surprisingly the Gross Enrolment Ratio stands close to 27% only. And that’s way too low when our country claims to have one of the largest Higher Education System in the world.
So, does that means we need more Universities?
Do collaborations bring good results?
And what if 2 Institutes from different nations collaborate to offer degrees?
Seems a faraway dream. Right?
But not anymore! It’s because-
UGC has issued new regulations in April 2022 for promoting academic collaborations among Indian and Foreign Colleges.
Wish to pursue two Degrees? And that too simultaneously?
Uhmm. Is that even possible in India?
Yes. That’s the good news for millions of students who wish to follow their passion while pursuing a formal academic route.
You’ll be surprised to know that the idea of pursuing 2 full time degree programmes has just been turned into reality. All thanks to UGC for passing Guidelines in this regard.

Good News?
Maybe, yes for some individuals.
And before we directly jump on conclusions stating what India gains from such an MoU, there are some surprising pointers you must know.
So, its about yesterday, 21st July, 2022 that UK & India signed:
Is the wait over ?

Ever heard of a flexible education system? That too in India?
Maybe now’s the time for us to witness a grand transformation coming our way.
In a bid to make it easy for students to prepare themselves for a changing Global Employment Market, Indian Education System will now have outcome-based learning.
Learning that will be agile and will support students in their career progression too.
At first glance, the new framework seems to be coming up with a novel focus on multidisciplinary and holistic education.
But it goes even deeper and is all set to introduce changes that will make India’s Higher Education agile, for the good of students, institutions and the economy.
So, first things first, welcome back to the Part 2 of our Blog.
A doctorate in India is pursued by the ones who are passionate to delve deep into the minute aspects of a subject and contribute more to the current body of research findings.
Some of these findings go on to advance the world’s understanding about the things around them. Or these findings give birth to a scientific revolution that gets acknowledged for decades to come.
We are pretty sure you must have heard of Professors of Practice serving at Harvard, Stanford, Columbia or other Ivy League & Top Ranked Global Institutes.
Even closer home, our very own IITs also invite experienced professionals to interact and deliver lectures in the class.
And this seems to be a luxury enjoyed by only few Institutes. Isn’t it?
