EDITORIAL

Evolving Landscape of Higher Education and HR for Corporate World With Industrial Revolution 4.0 set to influence almost every sector, an obvious requirement of the corporate for near future is to have innovative and industry-ready graduates. For this, Higher Education sector holds significance, as it’s the last threshold which everyone aims to eagerly cross and grab a highly rewarding job. All this and much more in terms of new challenges, scope, and visions of the education sector, especially in higher learning, and an evolving role of HR professionals in the corporate world has inspired us to organise the Higher Education and Human Resource Conclave in Chandigarh. The summit aims to initiate discussions and deliberations on the finest practices and challenges of India’s Higher Education landscape and their possible solutions. Our latest issue of the DigitalLEARNING magazine carries the cover story titled “Redefining Higher Education through New-Age Innovations”. It underlines how technology, social change, and the cost inflation are posing multiple challenges for students in higher education thus laying emphasis on the need to be innovative in an educational system, usually wary of changes. We have also carried two special features. One laying focus on “Government-Industry-Academia Collaboration Key to Quality Higher Education” It mentions how the rapid pace of change across the globe has compelled them to be in sync with each other to address some of the major challenges of higher education landscape. There is another special feature “HR Professionals – A Force to Reckon With” which underlines the evolving role and expectation from Human Resource departments in a rapidly changing corporate scenario. It highlights how HR is steadily acquiring a new narrative. This special issue also carries the “Top Private and Deemed-to-be-Universities Ranking 2019”. While ranking various universities, it highlights the evolving need to have relevant education and nurture an approach to stay ready to walk into unexplored territories. For this, the role of universities has turned critical. In this fifth edition of Top Private and Deemed-to-be-Universities Ranking, universities from different zones of India have been ranked on the basis of some key parameters. The magazine also carries a comprehensive report of the 9th Higher Education and Human Resource Conclave Hyderabad in which top-notch policymakers, edu-leaders, and stakeholders from higher education and human resource industry participated in the two-day conclave in February. With such a variety of articles, reports and other write ups, we hope this magazine will evoke an invaluable feedback of our esteemed readers.

COVER STORY

Redefining HIGHER EDUCATION through New-Age Innovations Technology, social change, and cost inflation are the three key elements posing multiple challenges to students in higher education thus laying emphasis on the need to be innovative in an educational system, usually wary of change, writes Akash Tomer of Elets News Network (ENN).

Understanding user needs

earning House and the Online Learning Consortium recently surveyed academic administrators of higher education to understand what these decision-makers are looking for right now and what lessons they’ve learnt from their implementation strategies. Majority of the surveyed individuals either called out technology specifically or gave examples of innovations that required new technology. Some of them equated innovation with the technology. A lot of higher education institutes are now taking service of resources and manpower to replace obsolete teaching-learning practices and technologies on campus with the latest innovations. But how many have a grasp of the state of innovation in the higher education space? While the implementation of new, cuttingedge tools is essential for planning innovation in any campus, decision-makers should understand what innovation means for higher education

It is essential to have an idea before taking a plunge into a digital solutions project. One way is to understand the needs and wants of all players within the institution, from students to administrators, is by creating the most effective innovation strategy. The efforts of a university should always be broad enough to pave the way for innovations, yet narrow enough to know where to start. To help frame the challenge, the institutions must ask three simple questions: l Who are the users and what benefit the institute is trying to provide? This helps put the students at the centre of efforts for innovating a new practice or technology. l Why is the innovation needed? This helps broaden the frame if it's too narrow. l What are the challenges or future risks in implementing the innovation? It will narrow the frame to a reasonable starting point. There are several innovative practices adopted by higher education institutes across India and globe that are supposed to transform the lecture delivery methodologies. These technologies or practices not only supposed to enhance their knowledge but also likely to update their technical skills and also the working habits.

Explaining the need of Innovation to impart quality higher education, Dr Harsh Sadawarti, Vice Chancellor, CT University, says, “New technology age calls for ‘Innovate or Evaporate’. Though India ranks high in higher education (HE), yet lot needs to be done. “A strong research segment will make India a tech-power rather than technology follower. Universities must identify with activities like Make in India, Start-up India in new technologies areas (cyber security, robotics, digital technology, artificial intelligence, data-science, block-chain, internet of things, etc.), Technology Parks, Skill India, etc.”

COVER STORY

Following practices in higher education are supposed to redefine the higher education ecosystem: E-Learning A report issued by Global Market Insights in September 2017 found that the eLearning market, already estimated to be worth $150 billion in 2016, will grow at a rate of over 5 percent annually during 2017-2024. E-learning, which is education through the Internet or network, is a part of new dynamics that characterises the educational system. It has become an important part of the society, comprising an extensive array of digitalisation approaches, components and delivery methods. Increased usage of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for educational purpose and the spread of network technologies have caused e-learning practices to evolve significantly. E-learning refers to use of electronic applications and processes to learn. It includes web-based learning, computer-based learning, virtual classrooms and digital collaboration. The contents are delivered through the Internet, local intranet/extranet, audio visuals, satellite TV & CD-ROM. E-learning is used by learners and educators in homes, schools, higher education, business and others. “Internet and digitisation have potential to transform HE sector. A new wave of innovation is poised to providing e-commerce experience to students and it can prove best practice in higher education.

in say every five years to keep abreast with the latest,” Dr Sadawarti adds. Short Lecture Methodology An innovative teaching and learning methodology is a short lecture. It is the method in which a problem solving case study is discussed by the students who are organised into groups and who interrogate the responses of fellow students. Student involvement is essential if learning is to be successful. The lecturer as the facilitator is tasked with guiding and promoting student interaction. The practice encourages interactive teaching superior to didactic teaching and the former greatly improves academic success and promotes the inclusion of students. Nowadays, collaborative learning is required and there should be far less reliance on the large lecture format that is followed in most of the higher education institutes. Simulation and Role-playing In these methodologies, the idea is to create a workplace scenario that students could encounter in real life. Such a method will allow students to develop their social skills essential for their respective industries. Role-playing and simulation promote an evaluation and synthesis of the teaching material while practically allowing students to learn by doing something. Simulation of scenarios and interrogation of case studies, involving staff, are useful in problem-solving and in developing the argumentation and analytical skills among students required in the world-of-work. Such exercises promote understanding and deep-learning that are the prerequisites for long-

term knowledge acquisition. This methodology does require planning by the lecturer who must have clear objectives regarding the learning outcomes.

It also provides an opportunity for self-assessment and continuous improvement on the students’ part. The approach also promotes self-esteem as students acquire important discipline knowledge by their own initiatives and the students take ownership of their education. What makes PBL unique is the fact that it is self-directed learning and addresses challenges and seeks solutions to problems using strategies that are encountered on a daily basis in real life experiences in the industries concerned.

Nurturing Employability Embedding employability in higher education framework highlights the process, principles and premises underpinning employability and the elements which contribute to and support it. Drawing on academic research and best practice, the framework enables an inclusive approach. Empowering staff to truly own their approach to employability is critical. Collaboration with stakeholders is essential to inform design, content

and delivery of programmes of study that support and enhance employability. Structural shifts in global economy, productivity enhancement and technological progress are driving demand for highly skilled workers, innovators and knowledge workers. India is well-positioned to cater to the changing requirements of the labour market in domestic and international markets due to favorable demographics and large output of higher education graduates. While the Indian higher education system has made considerable progress in terms of capacity creation and enrolment especially in the last decade, adopting the latest innovations will help the sector to be at par with the global standards.

COVER STORY

Problem-Based Learning (PBL) Problem-Based Learning (PBL) for students is a flourishing approach to enhance their learning. It is extremely useful to encourage critical and analytical thinking among them and also helps in addressing the rapid technological changes in the dynamic workplace of 21st Century. This approach to education suggests a strong role for factors such as authenticity, as well as student independence, and is principally associated with the encouragement of deep learning. In this approach, a range of selected constructive problems are designed by the lecturer to address the desired learning outcomes. PBL is an approach to learning that incorporates relevance and complexity of thought.

and alternative pathways to course enrollment, retention, and educational attainment. However, challenges to successfully implementing blended instructions are social presence, or students’ ability to project their personal characteristics into the learning space, can be reduced with student engagement, persistence, and academic achievements. Instructors are also experimenting with robot-mediated communication (RMC) to address these challenges.

GOVERNMENTINDUSTRY-ACADEMIA COLLABORATION KEY TO QUALITY HIGHER EDUCATION The Government, Industry and Academia are three different worlds. All three have different purposes and approach. However, the rapid pace of change across the globe has compelled them to function in sync with each other to address some of the major challenges of higher education landscape, observes Akash Tomer of Elets News Network (ENN).

ccording to National Employability Report, the education sector in India is poised to witness major growth in the years to come, as India will have world’s largest tertiaryage population and second largest graduate talent pipeline globally by 2020-end. India’s economy is also expected to grow at a fast pace; rapid industrialisation would require a workforce of around 250 million by 2030; India could potentially emerge as a global supplier of skilled manpower. However, despite these encouraging statistics, a major segment of Indian graduates remain unemployable according to the above report. Unemployment is indeed a grave problem in India as it has direct repercussions on country’s economy and on social conditions. Higher educational institutions across the country are training millions of youngsters annually but the corporate often complain about lack of necessary skills among them required for a job. At the same time, academia and industry also blame Government for ineffective implementation of policies and sometimes even lack of Government initiatives for a higher education ecosystem at par with the global standards. But shifting the responsibility on each other will not solve one

of the major problems of the country. It is important to understand that where we are going wrong and what can be done to tackle this challenge? One of the approaches to tackle the problem of lacking skill and job readiness among youth is bridging the gap between Government, industry and academia. Sharing his thoughts on importance of collaboration between Government, industry and academia to impart quality education, Dr Harcharan S Dhaliwal, Vice Chancellor, Eternal University, District Sirmour, Himachal Pradesh, said, “To deliver the quality higher education for knowledge generation, technology development, technology transfer, skill development, employability generation and entrepreneurship, transparent industry-academia collaboration with Government intervention in India is absolutely essential on the pattern of the developed countries of the world.” As we are at the threshold of Industrial Revolution 4.0, it is important to prepare people for the jobs of future by founding ways how Government, industry and academia can come together to bridge this gap:

PREPARING INDUSTRY-READY CURRICULUM Considering the evolving nature of industry and changes in the labour market, it has become imperative to ascertain how best the academic curriculum can address various requirements and demands of the dynamic industry. Despite exponential changes in almost every field, higher education curriculum is often hard to revise. Some suggest that curriculum should be revised regularly and developed in accordance with what industry needs. Academia can also look at existing pedagogies and see if the same can be improved and made more practical in approach Here the Government and its regulators can play a key role in preparing the curriculum, which is flexible enough to embrace all the changes. As shared by Dr Neetu Bhagat, Deputy Director, All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE), during the 9th Higher Education and Human Resource Conclave Hyderabad, the Government has taken several initiatives in this regard. “In order to improve standards of Higher Education in India, AICTE has taken various initiatives. One of them is revision of curriculum on regular basis. AICTE has instructed all the higher education institutes across the country to revise their curriculum in every three years. It is important as the technology and industry requirements are changing at a rapid rate.” Emphasis on Skill-based Education: A recent NASSCOM report suggests that by 2020, two out of three millennials would like to take up a managerial job within three years of their joining. The report further says that the core skill-set required by the industry will change fast and newer skills like creative thinking, higher-level problem solving, interpersonal skills, innovation, decision-making will be in great demand.

MARCH 2019

Describing about the essential skills required among the students in future, Pratyusha sharma, Senior Director - HR, Cognizant India, says, “At this point of time the required skills among candidates are innovate, incubate and capability of taking quick decisions. Another important skill which we need among candidates is good communication skill.” Therefore, besides imparting the core or technical knowledge, academia should also try to focus on the softer and behavioural aspects such as interpersonal skills, leadership capability, attitude, communication skills (with increased emphasis on learning the English language) etc. to ensure the success of individuals once they join the industry. Workplace Exposure through Internships, Live Projects, and Corporate Interactions: A well-timed and well-deliberated exposure to the industry provides a much-needed experience to students. It can take the form of internships or part-time projects that students can work on, providing practical insights about how the industry operates and expose students to current workplace realities. While there is no guarantee that these internships will fetch permanent jobs, it will equip students to adjust to the needs of the business once they actually join the industry. Such opportunities boost students’ confidence as they learn a lot by being present in the workplace. It would be admirable to see Government coming forward and working exclusively with the academicians and employers to create and develop a shared model for jobs and curriculum to address the industry requirements. The successful model will ensure many benefits for everyone – the graduating students will find their transition into industry roles smoother, employers will be able to hire people who are skilled and job-ready and academic institutes will take great pride in seeing their students getting placed with good firms.

HR Professionals — A Force to Reckon With SPECIAL FEATURE

Primarily tasked with arranging industry-ready individuals, the Human Resource department is usually perceived as the one focused on talent management while also keeping employees aligned with organisation’s policies and goals. However, HR is steadily acquiring a new narrative, finds out Sandeep Datta of Elets News Network (ENN).

n view of the transforming scenario of employment, innovation and entrepreneurship, it makes an interesting study to look at the evolving significance of HR department in terms of its new role, responsibility, expectations, and challenges in an innovationsdriven industry.

THE GENERAL VIEW Over the decades, a big section of the industry has been susceptible about effectiveness and influence of the HR functions in organisations. There are people who view HR as such an administrative unit which adds little strategic value. There are others who feel that, due to their inadequate business understanding, the HR executives are usually found clashing with others in the organisation. There are others who think HR executives are just good at identifying what not to do. They are usually found helpless in telling what exactly should be exercised to ensure a more profitable scenario in the company in terms of productivity. However, it is also said HR can be a key function, but only if the company’s structure positions it to take on business strategy issues.

CHANGING SCENARIO Given such a scenario, HR solution companies have undergone a considerable evolution with an improved focus on technological interventions for recruitment, staffing, and other HR-shared services. Besides, with the maturing of several leading Indian HR solution companies in niche sections like recruitment, HR technology and services like payroll, training and development, there has been considerable foothold of specialised international companies in India. This entry has resulted in some prominent mergers and acquisitions with top HR companies in the country¸ according to a media report.

HR’S INCREASINGLY SIGNIFICANT ROLE

HR — ADORNING A NEW AVATAR

To a great extent, in the last few years, the government and the corporate which collectively forms the India Inc. have focused on human resource mobilisation and talent management, given the shift in gaining profitability for business through new and innovative HR interventions.

HR is also increasingly initiating strategic initiatives, such as wellness programmes and workforce analytics. With this focus, organisations have achieved lower turnaround, higher employee engagement, and more productivity, thereby benefiting from better business outcomes. The advent of social media has considerably helped in the workforce revolution. With the country struggling to attract and retain top talent, social recruiting and referral hiring are definitely huge opportunities.

INNOVATIVE EMPLOYEE MANAGEMENT APPROACH Considering the rapidly evolving work scenario, having an innovative employee management approach is perhaps the need of the hour. One can also look at it in terms of the human resources reset. Various factors in the business environment have created new opportunities for HR to be a truly significant contributor to the performance of organisations. For the purpose of remaining competitive, many organisations

today increasingly depend on their ability to be agile, and be creative in the way they organise employees. These are areas where HR is expected to be a source of expertise. Also, there is a big need for talented HR professionals having a good understanding of business strategy. They should also be able to use data about talent management to impact organisational effectiveness. But for this to happen, there must be a reset in the way the HR function is managed and structured.

slightly in reducing the time it takes for HR administration, it has not had a significant impact on HR’s role with respect to business strategy; an organisational structure change is needed for HR to play a more strategic role. Some suggest that the HR should be classified into different groups: one that handles administrative and support services, while a second handles strategic talent management, organisation design and sustainable organisation effectiveness.

BRINGING TRANSITION -- TRADITIONAL HR TO FORWARD LOOKING A section of the industry people believe that to enable change, the business needs to have HR to become a more strategic partner and work together to enable that transition. But remember! It takes time. It’s not achieved overnight. Actually, this is much to do with understanding the end result of where the business wants HR to be. There is need to understand impacts, concerns, challenges the key stakeholders have within their businesses, which may all differ from each other, and work with them to build the HR plan whilst taking into consideration their needs and constraints.

Data-driven HR Data is there to be utilised and to tell a company’s story. The use of data in the HR function has increased over the years and as a result, the HR function now utilises this information to advise Board members and to provide business leaders with tangible management information. For instance, a company may use data from exit interviews to develop a better understanding of why employees leave that particular organisation. This data can prove to be extremely useful to the company as it can be utilised to correct issues that influence attrition rates. As a result, companies can make significant savings on recruitment costs and as a result invest in employee learning and development.

WHAT FASCINATES THE FINEST RESOURCE? To draw really talented individuals, the HR is expected to recruit and develop individuals with the similar level of business competence as those in other functions, for instance, marketing, IT, editorial, and finance. For this, salaries are required to be comparable to those in finance and marketing (not the lower ones being offered).

MARCH 2019

INDUSTRY SPEAKS l Sharad Chandra, Head -Talent Acquisition, Aizant Drug Research Solutions Pvt Ltd: “The problems we witness during a recruitment drive include: ineffective communication skills among students ends with the problem that they can’t brand themselves. So, it is important to focus on industry-relevant skills along with inculcating communication skills among our students. Better industry connect can also help students in this.” l Tupsakri Rajeev Chary, Chief People Officer, People Combine: By 2022, around 46 percent jobs will change partially and 40 percent of the employment contract will be in a completely new format. This is a big time for all the HR professionals as it will help all of us to evolve in better way. To overcome all these challenges, we have to think about the most innovative ways. To be innovative, we have to go back to routes.” l Sanketh Ramakrishna Murthy, Head - HR, AutoRabit: “To make our students industry-ready, we need to inculcate some skills among them. These skills include good confidence level, keen to always learn, good logical reasoning, better aptitude and ready to adapt to a situation. Our institutes can help the candidates in nurturing these skills among students.”

IT’S ABOUT HUMAN BEINGS NOT MACHINES! As the use of technology rapidly increases, businesses will move to jump on trends and catch the next technology wave. There is a need to remember, unmindful of all the additional benefits of technology such as automated systems, we are dealing with people. At times, a pragmatic personal approach goes a lot further. At places, the current trends HR innovation shows that there is an increasing importance on HR data analytics. However, every individual has their individual specific needs. Hence, the ‘one size fits all’ methodology with technology may never replace the value of face-to-face interaction.

GOVERNMENT SPEAKERS Navin Mittal CONFERENCE REPORT

Commissioner, Collegiate and Technical Education Department, Government of Telangana “The first interaction of human and machines was started with Industrial Revolution 1.0 which started during the 17th and early 18th century in Europe. Introduction of machines had stopped the use of human or animal strengths for accomplishing a task. The steam engine generated in this period had totally changed the way of working. Nearly 100 or 150 years after Industrial Revolution 1.0, the then generation witnessed Industrial Revolution 2.0 due to electricity’s invention. We learnt generating and storing electricity that helped us to achieve some tremendous transformations. The Industrial Revolution 2.0 also happened in Europe and the US. Around 50 or 60 years ago, the human race went through the Industrial Revolution 3.0 when the concept of Information Technology was introduced. It was the beginning of electronics. We started with vacuum tube then moved to processors, and thereafter to microprocessors. Nowadays, we are talking about nano-processors. These technologies have changed the way we generate, process and store information. Now, we are at the threshold of Industrial Revolution 4.0. The term was coined by Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum Klaus Schwab. It talks about the blend of machines and humans. We have started witnessing some of the key terms related to it like Machine Learning, Deep Learning and Robotics, etc.”

Dr A Ashok

Commissioner & Secretary, Intermediate Education, Government of Telangana and Vice Chancellor, IIIT, RGUKT, Basar, Telangana “Despite being the youngest State in the country, we are the pioneers in the education sector. We have set several landmarks in Indian education landscape. Telangana Government has taken various initiatives for different sectors with emphasis on education sector under the dynamic vision of our Hon’ble Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao. We are heading towards “Golden Telangana” to achieve a considerable development in the State with education as the key focus area. Since the inception of the State, huge investments have been made into education sector. Along with providing equal opportunities of growth for every domain of education sector including pre-primary, school, higher education, and skill and vocational training, the Government has also established several universities across the State. Good intermediate education is the foundation for good higher education. We are maintaining the global standards for curriculum to prepare knowledgeable, resourceful and competitive citizens. At the same time, we have strict norms for every school to maintain good standards of infrastructure, teachers and certifications. We have around 2,600 junior colleges in Telangana. To maintain certain standards and streamline processes, we have started schemes like online affiliation, integration of all the services with the mobile platform, conducting examinations within time, among others.”

CONFERENCE REPORT

“To improve standards of Higher Education in India, the AICTE has taken various initiatives. One of them is revision of curriculum on a regular basis. AICTE has instructed all the higher education institutes across the country to revise their curriculum in every three years. It is important as the technology and industry requirements are changing at a rapid rate. We have developed a model curriculum last year and asked all the universities across the country to adopt the curriculum. The model curriculum has more emphasis on internships, entrepreneurship and innovation to prepare employable students. The curriculum will also support students in not only getting jobs but also in providing employment to others.”

Prof Limbadri

Vice-Chairman, Telangana State Council of Higher Education, Government of Telangana “Education is one of the important areas as far as development and reformations in a society are concerned. Despite being the youngest State, Telangana has become a model for others in higher education. The average Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) in Telangana is 36.3 percent, which is higher than the national average of 26 percent. A number of initiatives have been taken by the Government to improve the quality of education in the State. One of such initiatives is Degree Online Services, Telangana (DOST). It helped in making the degree related services or processes more efficient or transparent both for students and institutes.”

CONFERENCE REPORT

C O N F E R E N C E | E X P O | AWA R D S

Dr R S Praveen Kumar, Secretary, Telangana Social Welfare and Tribal Welfare Residential Education Institutions, Government of Telangana By 2022, Telangana Social Welfare and Tribal Welfare Residential Education Institutions Society (TSWREIS) will be able to impact about 10 lakh students in Telangana by having at least 1,500 institutions. As of now, we have 877 institutions. We target most marginalised sections of the society. Our Government is taking initiatives to bridge the societal gap and provide marginalised section the best possible facilities. As of now we have around four lakh students studying in the residential school under TSWREIS free of cost. Telangana Government spends around Rs 62,000 on every student other than providing infrastructure. All schools are English medium schools. We have facilities at par to that of in country’s private or government schools. Recently we have started building the infrastructure for our institutes. Earlier, we used to recruit teachers from Telangana Public Service Commission but now we have our recruitment board. The minimum qualification for our teachers is a postgraduation degree. TSWREIS is more women centric in terms of providing education. We have two girls school on every boy’s school. In 2016, we have started an audacious experiment to provide education to girls. As among the poor families of Telangana girls got married at early age due to lack of education. Such girls suffer a lot and to improve girls’ education in, Telangana Government has provided us 53 degree colleges. It helped us to save 20,000 girls from getting married at very young age. These girls are doing amazingly well and some of them have even postponed their marriages for sake of education. The colleges under TSWREIS are performing better than the universities and colleges in Telangana. It can be understood by the fact that in universities, average pass percentage is 30-40 percent whereas in residential institutes of TSWREIS, the pass percentage is around 80-85 percent. It is important to drive innovation in the curriculum of our schools and colleges. Students must be taught the subjects which are relevant as per the industry requirement. In the institutions under TSWREIS, we try to offer curriculum which is relevant as per the latest trends and industry requirement.

Sudhakar Rao, Director-Branding, ICFAI Group in fireside chat with Dr R S Praveen Kumar, Secretary, Telangana Social Welfare & Tribal Welfare Residential Education Institutions, Government of Telangana What is the inspiration that helps you keep running the mission of catering to the dire educational needs of children hailing from the remote areas of Telangana? There is an urgent need to include children belonging to the backward sections of the society to the mainstream. It is necessary to make them the part of problem solving exercises.

CONFERENCE REPORT

Fire Side Chat Round

What inspired you to choose social welfare despite being an IPS officer? Firstly, during the Telangana agitation I came across incident of several students committing suicide due to lack of education and correct role models in their lives. Secondly, it was due to my mother. One day when I visited our village after becoming an IPS officer, my mother said “should I feel proud as my son is an IPS officer or should I feel ashamed as still most of the persons in his village are either labourers or stone-cutters”. This is when I thought to spread my learning among backward sections of the society. While enabling students to become globally competent, how your teachers have been managing a work-life balance? Our teachers enjoy what they do. They find a sense of purpose by contributing to this noble cause. One of the significant things that changed the outlook of our teachers is that the kind of teachers’ training provided to them. We don’t do our teachers’ training programmes within the institutional settings. A significant portion of our teacher’s training happen among the communities. We take them to villages and encourage them to immerse between the communities. It helps them to understand our students’ needs. A lot of schools are focusing on entrepreneurship to have fresh ideas from students, what steps have been taken by the TSREIS Schools in this regard? We are focusing on the practical aspect of entrepreneurship. We have established sanitary napkin stores and canteen in our schools where the supplier or the contractor is not a renowned person of these fields. Pass out students of our schools are the suppliers for these stores or canteens. So, this is the one such step to nurture entrepreneurship. We also call renowned industrialists to our schools regularly for interactive sessions with students so that they tend to understand an entrepreneur’s life.

Dr Mona Khare

Head, National University of Educational Planning and Administration, Government of India Various surveys have revealed merely 25 percent Indian youths are employable. Higher education institutes especially the private ones across the country are taking various initiatives to prepare industry-ready students. In line with this, the Government of India has also taken various initiatives, encouraging entrepreneurship being one of them.

Dr Ganesh Rao

Mitcon Institute of Managment, Maharashtra The term employability became a buzz word around 10 years ago. 30 years ago the word was not so common. Leading organisations have come up with various figures -- 20 percent or 30 percent. Such survey results lower the confidence of college students. It leads to a depressed generation. Rather than conducting such surveys, we must focus on improving the skills among students.

Prof V Venkata Ramana

Vice-Chairman Telangana State Council of Higher Education The Telangana State Council of Higher Education is primarily a coordinating body between the University Grants Commission (UGC), the State Government and the Universities. It is the general duty of the Council to coordinate and determine standards in institutions of Higher Education, Research, Scientific and Technical Institutions.

Emmanuel Gosula

Senior Resource Development Manager, EPAM Systems

“Higher Education Institutes in India trains students to get employment but not to give their best in terms of learning. Many students can’t differentiate between training and learning and when these students get into a learning platform, it is very difficult for them to cope up. To improve learning levels among rural students, we have collaborated with various social welfare organisations as well.”

Satish Rajarathnam

Global HRBP, Cognizant India

“There are various paradigm shifts in industries for example; people are talking about e-transportation systems. Simultaneously, business models or operating procedures for a business are also changing at a rapid rate. So, with all this, it is very important to churn talent with relevant skills and also keeping up with the ongoing pace.”

Sanketh Ramakrishna Murthy Head - HR, AutoRabit

“To make our students industry-ready, we need to inculcate some skills among them. These skills include good confidence level, keen to always learn, good logical reasoning, better aptitude and ready to adapt to a situation. Our institutes can help the candidates in nurturing these skills among students.”

Rohith Castelino

Managing Director, Options Executive Search Pvt Limited

“It is important for every faculty to inspire his/her students. As far as India’s rural sector is considered, one of the major reasons people in these areas are lagging behind is lack of information. They are unaware about the career opportunities. Our faculty members can play an important role in opening centres where rural youths can have career-related information.”

universities ranking 2019

India’s Top Private Universities Ranking 2019 In the steadily changing realm of education, the learning has acquired a comprehensive meaning. Considering the evolving need to have relevant education and nurture an approach to stay ready to walk into unexplored territories, the role of universities has turned critical. These days the students have high expectations from their colleges. It is so because most of them wish to eagerly have a good placement just after completing college studies. It is well-known that higher education not only trains them in their chosen field, but also enables them to think analytically, help them understand complex subjects and develop an ability to communicate effectively. Along with getting a good education, these are some of the key factors making people invest money and time on university courses. With rapidly changing job scenario across the globe, it is very important for candidates to choose the universities and other higher education institutes inculcating broad range of future skills. Such kind of skill oriented courses help universities to gain recognition among education fraternity on one hand and help students to be ready as per industry requirements, on the other hand. Also, with Industrial Revolution 4.0 set to change the job trends rapidly across the world, it is very important to make every student ready for unique opportunities not available earlier. With an unprecedented level of competition in every sphere of life, zeroing-in the right university or educational institute for higher education has always been a Herculean task. Understanding the requirements of current job scenario, it is very important for students to choose the universities which focuses on nurturing 21st century skills. With Government of India’s emphasis on imparting world class higher education to country’s youth, private universities are also adopting the best and latest global practices and teaching methodologies. All this inspired us to conduct a comprehensive ranking of “Top Private & Deemed to be Universities of India Ranking 2019” with a view to ensure better exposure for youths in India. In this fifth edition of private university ranking, universities from different zones of India have been ranked on the basis of parameters including Entrepreneurship, Faculty, Industry Interface, Placement, Infrastructure, Global Collaboration and Swachh Campus. In this perception-based ranking, grades have been awarded to every university after considering its overall score under the aforementioned parameters. The mammoth exercise was spread over two months that also involved online voting of users. Let’s have a look how we have ranked them.

Ranking parameters As part of our mega exercise, over 300 universities across the country have been evaluated and ranked on various parameters. The private universities have been ranked based on the analysis of available data. Zone-wise, we have provided the list of top national private universities. The grading provided to every university has been done in the following manner:

Faculty Entrepreneurship Industry interface Infrastructure Global Collaboration Placements Swachh Campus

Faculty

A good faculty can make or mar the reputation of any educational edifice. Their capabilities, educational as well as aptitudinal, can prove detrimental for any college or university. The impact of faculty members on students’ learning experience can be observed in and out of classroom. Various surveys have found that behaviours and attitudes of faculty affect students profoundly, suggesting that faculty members may play the single-most important role in students’ learning experience. digitalLEARNING magazine considered “Faculty” as one of the parameters for its Top Universities in India Ranking 2019 because to develop a premier educational institution, it is vital to have a good faculty. It not only helps in the cognitive development of students but also restricts the rising rate of brain-drain from the country.

Entrepreneurship Students’ entrepreneurial development has become very significant factor today in view of it being looked upon as financial rise of any company or country. It is so because entrepreneurially trained individuals are frequently thought of as national assets, to be cultivated, motivated and remunerated to the greatest possible extent. It is well-known that entrepreneurs can dramatically influence the way we live and work. If successful, their innovative approach may improve our standard of living, and in addition to creating wealth with their entrepreneurial ventures, they also create jobs and conditions for a prosperous society. digitalLEARNING magazine considered “Entrepreneurship” as one of the parameters for its Top Universities in India Ranking because education is not just to train students for jobs. It is also about developing leadership qualities and approach amongst students. Since entrepreneurial competency can assist in cognitive development, it is a key element to analyse the level of curriculum in educational institutions.

Industry interface What industry needs can be best learnt being in the industry or by the people who represent it. Almost every educational institute understands it and, if possible, doesn’t leave any scope to provide its students such an exposure. With this factor in mind, knowledge of industry needs is an essential step to understand the specifications and skills which the companies look for in their potential employees. Industry participation, thus, is necessary in designing and delivering of courses at any university. The institutes invite personnel from industry to share their experience and wisdom with the students. It provides an opportunity to personnel in the industry to create value for a wide range of people and equip them to integrate better with the industry. “Industry interface” has been considered as one of the key parameters while ascertaining Top Universities in India Ranking 2019. It is so because AcademiaIndustry Interface plays a crucial role in knowledgedriven economy, where the students pursuing different professional programmes are expected to be well-versed in the industry working style.

Infrastructure Higher education institute’s campus holds significance during the learning span of all students. Hence, the infrastructure including lecture rooms to cafeteria and laboratories to hostel holds big importance for every student. In “Top Private University Ranking 2019”, digitalLEARNING magazine considered infrastructure as one of the important parameters while allocating grades to educational institutes. Some of the key factors that have been considered in this light include sports facilities, student accommodation, IT infrastructure, library facilities, research facilities and medical facilities.

Global Collaboration International partnerships of universities can prove extremely beneficial for students and the university. The economy we are preparing students to enter is global, competitive, and interconnected. For this, the students need to be accustomed to requirements of that scale and nature. For this, students need international exposure which can be made possible through global collaborations. Doing so engages students, enhances their learning, improves inter-cultural awareness, and connects them to the contributions of diverse and valued cultures. The potential power of combined talents between nations could greatly improve the amount of knowledge and possible solutions to these global problems. With the help of unhindered communication channels and inexpensive travel, universities across the world are trying to collaborate with other universities and fostering relationships with other institutions in the world. digitalLEARNING magazine has therefore, used “Global Collaboration” as one of the key ranking parameters for the ranking of universities.

Placements: While browsing about universities, students prefer educational institutions with higher placement rate. In practical terms, the education received at the university level should also pave the way for employability. And, almost every student wants a job-guarantee at the end of educational career. From student perspective, high quality placements mean a range of benefits and a sense of optimism towards life as a reward of effective education. It is well-known that placements and work experience are big attractions for students, both in terms of academic performance and employability skills. Placements give students the opportunity to acquire real skills linked to their subjects learnt at college, or industry of choice as well as the employability skills required for reallife work. It is an opportunity to be involved in team-based working, which provides a welcome contrast to the typically more individual-centric approach taken to academic study. Thus, we have used â&#x20AC;&#x153;Placementsâ&#x20AC;? as one of the key parameters while ranking them.

Swachh Campus (Cleanliness) In line with the vision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we have also included the Swachh Campus as a parameter in Top Universities Ranking 2019. No matter what but cleanliness can also be a big draw or disappointment for university students. The universities have been ranked on the basis of factors like student/toilet ratio, availability of running water, water supply systems, garbage disposal, garbage disposal techniques and campusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; green cover.
