The goal of education

dissemination of truth.

E
ducation is the primary way to obtain the ability to soar high into your dream countries.
How many of you have early fantasies about the nation where you wanted to live, work, and
strive to be a successful person? Well, it goes without saying that many young children have aspirations
of visiting America, London, Canada, India, and many other countries during their growing ages.
The dream of moving abroad changes into desire to pursue an education in overseas, when the young
mind grows. And in accordance with that, they begin preparing themselves to meet the global
educational standards.
Earlier students search for foreign pedagogies in places like London, America, Russia, Germany, and
many others, but they ignore India because it lags behind other nations in terms of quality education.
Yet due to the shifting environment, the colleges, schools, and universities in India are now providing
top-notch education as well as oﬀering great opportunities for exploration.
Indian educational system frequently holds the top spots, in the 'THE (Times Higher Education)'
and 'QS World University Rankings.' The country has emerged as a center for excellence, and
providing exceptional exposure as well as high-quality education to glocal students.
Except from education, India is the land where citizens from many cultures co-exist. In India,
everyone live in a spirit of brotherhood, and respects one another's cultural values. The
signi icance of maintaining national unity fosters cultural diversity among international students.
It enables them to appreciate and relate to diverse organizational culture. And when The
Education View started searching for "India's Best Universities to Study For International
Students, 2022," we discovered prestigious institutions that are all promoting the value of
diverse culture and oﬀering a brilliant learning environment as well as other career
opportunities.
In The Education View magazine, you will gather details about universities that
adhere to worldwide educational standards, along with articles that illustrate how
the Indian educational system has changed to become an excellent choice for
international students.
Enjoy the reading and discover something new!

Story

"Education is simply the soul
of a society as it passes from
one generation to another."
- GK Chesterton
Education assists the
academic excellence,
where it helps
individuals groom their
personalities and society.
The development sustains
generation to generation as
education keeps on
changing along with the
technological
advancements.
In today's generation,
educational institutes
provide holistic learning to
the students, that help them
to gain various advanced
skills to disrupt the
competition. And the
Dayananda Sagar
University, a leading
university in assisting
students with academic
excellence, is committed to
spreading knowledge in
various ields to each
person in the country.
The institute not only
focuses on spreading
knowledge but also wants
to be the center of
excellence in education,
innovation and
entrepreneurship, research
and training. All these
approaches will help them
to build the future leader
who can serve for national
and global needs.
Meanwhile, the institute is
also creating an
environment where the
education system is
enriched by creativity, and
innovation.
In an inspirational
conversational with The
Education View, Dr KN
Balasubramanya Murthy,
the Vice-Chancellor of the
university, highlighted the
institute's strategies, future
vision and missions.
The Blooming Seeds
Dayananda Sagar
Institutions was founded in
the 60s and is the brainchild
of a visionary person, the
late Sri Dayananda Sagar. He
was committed to spreading
the knowledge to each
person in the country, and
wanted to transform today's
generation into responsible
citizens and professional
leaders of tomorrow.
Keeping these
foundations in mind, the
university commenced in
2014, as a State's Private
University with the
approval of the Government
of Karnataka.
Dayananda Sagar
University (DSU) provides a
variety of graduate,
postgraduate, and research
programs in the following
streams engineering,
medicine, nursing,
physiotherapy, biological
sciences, basic health
sciences, commerce, law,
journalism, management
programs (Business
Administration, Computer
Applications and Executive
MBA), arts, design, and
humanities.
DSU has students from
diﬀerent states of India
right from Gujarat to
Arunachal Pradesh and
Kashmir. While, stating
detailed information about
the institute Dr KNB Murthy
says, "We have institutional
tie up with few foreign
universities in the process of
establishing more. The
relationship with universities
is at diﬀerent levels of
maturity as we progress
along with work out twining
programs and mutual
acceptance of credits."
DSU has accomplished
many recognitions during
its journey, although under
the guidance of Dr KNB
Murthy, the institute has
been achieved massive fame
and also brought many
changes in the education
pattern of the institute, to
have detailed sights of Dr
KNB Murthy read ahead.
An Intellectual Enthusiast
Under the collective
guidance of Chancellor Dr D
Hemachandra Sagar and
Pro-Chancellor Dr D
Premchandra Sagar from
the Mahatma Gandhi
Vidyapeeth Trust, and Vice-
Chancellor, Prof KNB

educational quality.
Vice-Chancellor, Prof KNB
Murthy with Dr C
Puttamadappa, the
Registrar and Deans along
with diﬀerent HODs sets the
direction and roadmap for
the university moving
forward.
As an intellectual
enthusiast, Prof KNB
Murthy holds a bachelor's
degree in Electrical Power
Engineering from Malnad
College of Engineering, a
master's degree in electrical
engineering from Indian
Institute of Science,
Bangalore (1986) and a PhD
in Computer Science and
Engineering from Indian
Institute of Technology –
Madras, Chennai (1996).
He worked with the New
Mexico State University, Las
Cruces, the USA as a
research specialist in
Parallel Computing in
August 1998 and January
1999.
Currently, he is a proud
member of the Karnataka
State Higher Education
Council (KSHEC) and a few
other institutes. Being a
great leader, Dr KNB Murthy
also has brought
progressive changes
through his creative and
innovative thinking, and the
changes bridge the gap
between industry and
education.
Prof KNB Murthy's
extensive background
enables him to lead unique
and innovative reforms at
Dayananda Sagar University.
Under his guidance, the
university is accelerating
excellence in teaching and
bridging the knowledge gap
between industry and
education.
After long-detailed
insights into the great
leader Dr KNB Murthy, let's
know about how he has
maintained the code of
ethics (Vision, Mission, and
Core Values) of the DSU.
Code of Ethics
As it is always said that
there is always someone's
strong vision that drives
them towards success, DSU
has set a certain vision,
mission, and core values,
which drives it towards
great achievements.
Having said that, Dr KNB
Murthy shared the valuable
vision and postulated, "Our
vision is to be a centre of
excellence in education,
research and training,
innovation and
entrepreneurship and to
produce citizens with
exceptional leadership
qualities to serve for
national and global needs."
Although, he also shares
the mission of the institute
and states, "Our mission is to
achieve our objectives in an
environment that enhances
creativity, innovation and
scholarly pursuits while
adhering to our vision."
Sliding down the core
values of the institute, Dr
KNB Murthy highlights:
• "The Pursuit of
Excellence - A
commitment to striving
continuously to improve
ourselves and our systems
with the aim of becoming
the best in our ield.
• Fairness - A commitment
to objectivity and
impartiality to earn the
trust and respect of
society.
• Leadership - A
commitment to lead
responsively and
creatively in educational
and research processes.
• Integrity and
Transparency - A
commitment to be ethical,
sincere and transparent in
all activities and to treat
all individuals with
dignity and respect."
The code of ethics helps the
institute to work hard to
achieve its goals. Similarly,
apart from the code of
ethics, there are many other
approaches that the
institute has adopted to
sustain and enhance foreign
learning.
Pedagogical Drive- To
Enhance Foreign Pupil's
Learning
DSU is a young, proactive,
and progressive university
which has introduced
contextually relevant
curriculum, intelligence-
based assessments and
C er

connecting concepts across
domains. The University
emphasizes imparting
globally relevant skills such
as communication, critical
thinking, collaboration, and
creativity. In addition, skills
such as cross-cultural
competency, social
intelligence, negotiation,
and in luencing are also
imparted to succeed in the
current globalized world.
DSU has international
hostels, faculty with
international and industry
experience as well as bridge
program modules for
international students. In
addition, some of the DSU
faculty have been
collaborating with

international faculty on
joint research projects as
well as student-exchange
programs.
DSU understands that
practices and academic
initiatives are crucial in
making any academic
institute, and being a
diﬀerentiator, they are
creating its brand, identity,
place, growth, innovation,
and adapting the changes to
sustain the international
student's learning.
As a thrust area to excel in
International Student's
Learning, DSU has used
options under New
Education Policy, the
lexibility oﬀered under
Private University, signed
MoUs with chosen partners
and started working
towards the same. The
institute has introduced
student study and exchange
programs, research
collaboration, and options
to do internships, projects,
and internships.

For International Students'
Learning, DSU has many
initiatives. In order to make
the learning impactful, they
stay illed with a
comfortable learning
system. DSU is also
providing administrative
support, world-class
infrastructure, courses,
boarding and lodging,
safety, and local
transportation. The
university further assists
them in accommodation,
cuisine, and other necessary
assistance to the visiting
students for their ease of
transition into a foreign
culture and environment.
While asserting more
about the institute's
initiatives, Dr KNB Murthy
notes, "It also ensures
professional support for
deciding on mode type, and
nature of involvement of
staﬀ and faculty members
who visit DSU, and
agreement on modalities of
involvement, scope, logistics,
expenses, payment, and
compensation."
He further adds, "DSU
respects all and ensures
through the Code of Conduct
that there should no bias,
based on race, color, gender,
food, and dress are practised,
and everyone will have
respectful stay and learning."
DSU has been providing
education on a global level.
However, the institute does
provide administrative
support to international
students, which has been
discussed in detail ahead.
Administrative
Modi ication
International Student
Support Centre will provide
all administrative support,
including documentation,
stay, boarding, lodging,
transportation, food and
cuisine, cross-cultural
training, grievance
mitigation, and travel-
related support. Despite all
these, the institute has an
innovative and collaborative
academic system that caters
to the international
students learning needs.
Innovative and
Collaborative Approach
The institute adopts
innovative pedagogy to
promote learning, make it
more fruitful for students,
and encourage student
engagement. It starts with
their teaching methods,
where problem-solving
activities are given to
students providing
opportunities to think
diﬀerently and work
independently. Also,
accommodating and
accepting multiple
perspectives and diverse
opinions; Creates an
element of curiosity and

collaboratively, especially
for some open-ended
questions.
After talking about the
collaborative and innovative

approaches, Dr KNB Murthy
asserts, "International
Students Learning Needs are
captured, and training
delivery will be customized
by understanding
competency in English and
learning ability. Credit
transfer will also be given for
pre-recognized online
courses undergone by the
students from MOOCS, which
caters to diverse
requirements."
While sharing about the
innovative and collaborative
approaches, Dr KNB Murthy
also shared some cross-
cultural exchanges for the
students to get an
international platform.
Cross-Cultural Exchange
Programs
DSU has introduced Student
Formal Education Programs
and Student Exchange
Programs. Also, it provides
cross-cultural training
programs along with Dos
and Don'ts. After sharing
DSU's formal programs for
the students, Dr KNB
Murthy states, "All the
academic programmes
offered at the Dayananda
Sagar University are curated
on the concept of GLOCAL,
where the student is
groomed in a global
demography."
Despite all these
programs, many other
opportunities have been
listed that provide great
experiences to their
students.
A Glance towards the
Opportunities for the
Students
Being the esteemed
institute, there are various
opportunities for students
to experiment and learn
different things while
progressing in their
semesters. A case in point is
the ability to obtain a Major
and Minor degree within
the same duration, with
some extra effort from
students.
Besides these
opportunities, DR. KNB
Murthy admits that "A
passionate student will
hardly feel the efforts of
incubations with right
participation. The students
and faculty have been
considered as a part of
academic schedules when it
comes to transforming ideas
into companies."
He further stated, "Apart
from the traditional
placement cell, where
training and skill
development for students are
available, we have
innovative tie-ups
encouraged by industries
(e.g., IBM, GE Health care,
VMWare etc.) to set up
laboratories."
DSU not only provides the
training programs but also
leverages the project and
research-based learning
system.

How
areUNIVERSITIES
Global Education
Paradigm?
Adapting to the Modern
Universities have
been an integral
part of the Indian
Education system. Long
before the world adopted
the concept of higher
education
India already had
established universities.
Today, there are a lot of
changes in the ield of
education that need to be
incorporated into the
mainstream. As time
changes, the skill set
required to do any job
changes, so if we continue
with the same syllabus and
methods of teaching, there
will be no progress. The
word Paradigm itself means
framework for a given
knowledge domain.
The ield of education, at
both the basic and higher
education levels, has
undergone tremendous
change since World War II.
This change has been
precipitated by
unprecedented demand for
high-quality and meaningful
education at all levels across
the globe.
Indian Universities
Shaping and Carving a
Promising Future for the
World.
"The old order change,
yielding place to new, and
God ful ills himself in many
ways, lest one good custom
should corrupt the world."
This line from the poem
'The Passing of Arthur' by
Alfred Lord Tennyson leads
us towards optimism of
change.
Nothing in this world is
constant; everything
changes. India being the
fastest-growing economy,
and its workforce is the
youngest. With the
advantage of having the
youngest workforce, it also
has an abundance of
traditional knowledge as
well. A lot of research and
scienti ic concepts that are a
part of the world today
were brought to light by
Indian scholars.
Accountability and
autonomy are a must for
running a successful system,
as they are the critical
building blocks for ensuring
good governance. Future
jobs require Human skills
and emotional quotient as
key attributes. And our
universities do focus on
these attributes due to our
strong cultural heritage.
What are the advantages
of pursuing higher
education at a reputed
Indian university?
We have a rich history and
heritage of scholars who
have made a very
meaningful contribution to
the world's development.
As a result, many Indian
Universities have been
ranked as the world's top
universities. The charges
are more aﬀordable than
any other top university in
the world, and the bene it of
a cross-cultural approach
attracts students
worldwide. The certi icate is
accepted worldwide and
recognized by top
universities, adding good
value to prospective
employers. Which, in turn,
increases employability.
5 Reasons to Receive
Higher Education in India
for International
Students.
Aﬀordability is a prime
reason that attracts
students.
Rich culture and a cross-
cultural approach are what
the students ind comfort in
studying in India.
They have the option of
study and work that help
them reduce the burden of
loans and also provide a
comfortable living.
A lot of opportunities for
research work with rich
sources are available.They
can also take a pause during
their course.

About the

Enhancing
International
Pedagogies
Increases the Country's
To adapt to the
shifting demands of
the global economy,
every industry is
undergoing reform.
Education is still primarily a
public good. This is ine, but
it also means that most of
this is funded, provided, and
regulated by the public. We
demand more of education
than we do of any other
public service organization.
How well are the
educational systems doing
around the world?
Most education systems
fail to provide workers with
the knowledge and abilities
needed to succeed in
today's employment
markets. Korea is an outlier,
having launched its reform
program years ago and
dramatically improving
student outcomes. The
country of Korea is lauded
for laying a strong
foundation in its early years
and leveraging the private
sector wisely to increase
access and cultivate useful
talents. The Education
Commission, which is made
up of heads of state, cabinet
members, Nobel Laureates,
and prominent igures in
the area of education,
applauds Korea and calls on
other nations to adopt the
'progressive universalism'
that Korea has
demonstrated.
How Education Bene its a
Nation
Countries and their
economies must compete
with one another in order to
bene it from globalization
and international trade.
Although a single nation
rarely specializes in a
particular industry,
economically successful
countries will hold
competitive and
comparative advantages
over other economies.
Various industries with
varied competitive
advantages and
disadvantages in the global
marketplace will be present
in a typical developed
economy. How well a
country's economy will do
depends in large part on
how well-educated and
trained its workforce is.

How Job Training
In luences the Economy
A strong economy has a
labor force that can run its
industries at a level that
gives it an edge over the
economies of other nations.
Nations may attempt to
encourage training through
tax incentives, the provision
of facilities for people to
receive training, or a variety
of other strategies aimed at
developing a more
competent workforce. While
it's doubtful that an
economy will have a
competitive advantage in
every industry, it can
concentrate on a few that
can more easily train
talented workers.
Training levels vary
signi icantly across
developed and developing
nations, which is a crucial
factor. Although, there are
undoubtedly other factors
at play, such as geography
and resource availability,
having better-trained
personnel has favorable
externalities that spread
throughout the economy.
A well-trained workforce
makes it possible for an
externality to have a
favorable impact on an
economy. In other words,
having a skilled labor pool
from which to hire people is
an external factor that
bene its all businesses. The
highly skilled work force
may occasionally be
concentrated in a particular
geographic area. Because of
those talented workers,
similar enterprises may end
up congregating in the same
area; Silicon Valley,
California, for instance.
The majority of countries
urgently need to improve
their educational systems,
as evidenced by the recently
released results of
international student tests
(TIMSS and PISA). This is
seen in underperforming
nations as well as middle-
income nations attempting
to catch up. However, it also
applies to great performers
because of how the
economy is changing and
how the Fourth Industrial
Revolution, as de ined by
the World Economic Forum,
is driving changes in skill
requirements.
Not only do many countries
have poor educational
performance, but the
diﬀerences between them
are wide and widening. This
is now being re lected in
rising income disparity and
increased returns to
education. Simply put,
education institutions are
failing to deliver what is
required, what economies
want, and what parents
want. Even in nations that
perform well, there is a high
level of unhappiness.
Take a playful approach to
education
Policymakers must publicly
commit to supporting the
reform of education and
actively encourage skills and
a playful approach to
learning in order to seize
this opportunity.
Every stakeholder has a
part to play in advancing the
increasing movement to
make Education 4.0 a reality,
including governments,
non-governmental
organizations, corporations,
investors, educators,
parents, and learners
themselves.
Unique opportunity to
reimagine learning
There is currently a special
window to spot chances for
strategic investment to
transform learning and
rede ine education as part
of the global post-pandemic
recovery.
As well as new evaluation
methods and the
deployment of new learning
tools, it necessitates
investment in the upskilling
and innovative pedagogical
development of the teaching
workforce.
Systems need to be
inclusive, concentrate on
the range of skills required,
and take advantage of
technology and pedagogical
innovation to prioritize
learners in order to rethink
what learning can and
should look like in the
present and the future.
Innovative teaching
methods to unlock skills
Yet how? The LEGO
Foundation has conducted
its own in-depth analysis to
determine how to bring
about Education 4.0 in an
upcoming white paper. We
discovered consistent
evidence tying playful
learning to the growth of
kids' all-around skills.
Children learn to read and
write, as well as to develop
physically, socially,
intellectually, creatively, and
emotionally, most naturally
via play.
Yet, the education systems
do not consistently re lect
this. It will take a mental
shift on the part of parents,
educators, and lawmakers
to change systems to
properly re lect this
relationship between
learning and play.
Unlocking these skills
requires spending money
on the workforce and
encouraging educators to
use cutting-edge teaching
techniques. These strategies
ensure that kids preserve
their curiosity and
enthusiasm for learning
while also fostering
motivation, involvement,
voice, and agency.
And youngsters who enjoy
learning may develop into
individuals who are more
able to adjust to the shifting
demands of dynamic
economies in terms of the
workforce. The good news
is that there is no need to
invent the wheel because
learning through play has
been proven to be bene icial
in other nations.
We can ensure that all
children receive a fair share
from the educational system
by raising early reading
scores. After all, people who
struggle with reading in
their early years will ind it
dif icult to acquire math,
physics, and other courses
in the future, which will
limit their ability to reap the
huge economic and social
bene its of education. They
will undoubtedly struggle to
thrive in the digital
economy.

BANGALORE
UNIVERSITY LAW COLLEGE
Instilling the Principles of Law of the Land
India, incredible India!
Home of the golden
sparrow today is a
country with a population
that exceeds the mighty
number of 1 billion and is
literally the largest
democracy in the world.
Interestingly, ever since its
independence in 1947, it
has been very peculiar
about its foreign policies,
trade and international
affairs.
But traditionally or
historically speaking, India
has always been a country
of Dharma or Law in
modern language. However,
in the midst of confusion
caused during its colonised
time, India understood the
importance of democratic
governance and an
institution that disregards
any developments will obey
the 'Law of the Land.'
Since independence, India
has been a global
trendsetter regarding
practical and reality-based
education and welcomes
international students from
all across the globe. Today,
the entire country is a
milestone for international
students for effective
governance and regulation
of law.
Having said that, while
welcoming international
students interested in the
intricacies of Indian
democracy and its
demography, there are
many universities that
groom them in a holistic
atmosphere to understand
the Law of the Land of India
and its constitution in an
embracing manner.
While searching for the best
university for international
students, we stumbled upon
the steps of Bangalore
University Law College, a
trendsetter institution for
the shared love for the law.

The erstwhile government
of Mysore (now the state of
Karnataka) started the
College in 1948. It was
previously known as the
Government Law College
(GLC). In 1964, GLC was
brought under the Faculty
of Law of Bangalore
University; since then, it has
been known as University
Law College (ULC).
Initially, a two-year LLB
program was offered. The
turnaround in legal
education in India came
about with the introduction
of 5 years BA LLB
Integrated degree
programme, and ULC has
the credit as the irst
institution in the country to
introduce the ive years LLB
programme in the year
1986-87, with the keen
initiation of Prof. V. B.

Indian
Higher Education
A Promising Future for
International Students Community
"By Education, I mean an
all-round drawing of the best
in child and man in body,
mind and spirit."
- Mahatma Gandhi
India is one of the most
diverse countries in the
world. Here every state
has its own distinctive
culture and traditions. India
also oﬀers a perfect
platform for students who
want to encompass it all and
heighten students cross-
cultural learning. It allows
students to reweigh
themselves.
India has had a very
powerful and functioning
system of higher education
– as early as 900 BC –
deeply entrenched in
religion and Vedic studies,
designed for the dispersion
of higher knowledge. Global
exchange and student
mobility are not new to
India. India has an
inspirational history of
Nalanda, Vallabhi,
Pushpagiri, Odantapuri,
Takshashila and
Vikramashila that served as
educational destinations for
scholars from across the
world.
Over the years, Indian
education has been
acclaimed as tradition in the
world. Even ancient India,
which mounted the highest
acme of education by
emerging as Vishwaguru,
has left an opulent heritage
of teaching-learning system
for us. Being the second
largest populous country in
the world, India has
undergone rapid expansion
in various sectors,
education being one of
them.
The country is idyllic for
providing students with
fulgurant cultures, natural
beauty and diverse history.
On the other hand,
wherever you choose to
study in India will give you a
quirky experience. There
are thousands of
universities and colleges for
international students to
choose from. India is also
one of the countries with
top universities.

Empowering Indian Higher Education

Shaik Sardar Basha
About the Author

Reasons why Indian
universities have unique
learning opportunities for
students from India and
other countries:
Ministry of Education,
Government of India, has
come out with a New
Education Policy
envisioning a complete
overhaul and re-energizing
of the higher education
system. Higher education's
ultimate aim is to develop
universal beings with
healthy inter-relations,
interdependence and
integration with all.
Indian Universities have
become a catholicon in
trailing the emerging
changes and tackling the
upcoming challenges and
preparing students strong
for future realities. India has
achieved its own
recognition of educational
standards at the
international level.
Moreover, the Indian
higher education system is
developing very speedily
despite various challenges.
The important factors that
play decisive roles in
attracting foreign students
include: enriching
classroom experience with a
focus on learning pedagogy;
a robust evaluation process,
innovative courses,
outreach at a global level;
the lexibility in teaching-
learning;
internationalization of
entrance examinations;
issuing work permits for
international students;
international curriculum
good quality faculty;
research facilities;
acceptability of grades and
credits on international
pattern; and comfortable
and affordable hostels.
India is providing an
important prerequisite for
st
higher education in the 21
century. Beyond that, it is
heeding the integration of
employability-oriented soft
skills as an integral part of
the higher education
system. The special
education system in India
has placed the country
second in the world's
education system. Many
universities in India have
built up and have plush
natural campuses, which
allows students to enjoy the
natural surroundings and
connect deeply with nature
truly. The country provides
students with an experience
of culture, art, tradition,
heritage, history, innovation
and creativity to enhance
educational needs as well as
great career growth
opportunities.
Currently, many Indian
educational institutions are
collaborating with foreign
institutions by espousing
various student educational
exchange programs.
Courses offered by Indian
universities are globally
recognized and valid in all
regions of the world. Faculty
from reputed foreign
Universities are also visiting
India to share their
educational standards with
the students and also
imbibe Indian standards of
education in the
Universities.
In this way, the students
studying here will get extra
encouragement. The main
reason for attracting
students from all over the
world is its welcoming
environment, non-
discriminatory policy and
assured academic and
professional growth. The
process of getting
admission to top Indian
universities is very easy
compared to the admission
process to foreign
universities. Another
valuable attraction is the
quality education offered by
India, which is accessible to
every income group
considering a reasonable
fee structure. A plus point is
that top Indian institutes
charge less as compared to
the fees charged by foreign
institutes.
Indian higher education
institutions have always
given importance to
providing irst-class higher
education to all, irrespective
of their economic or social
backgrounds. Every
institution here attaches
great importance to making
its courses as affordable as
possible. Certi icates issued
by Indian universities are
widely considered the best
way to increase students'
employability. If any student
is looking for the best
education or the best
values, I think India is a very
good choice. Talking about
international exposure,
there is no doubt that
Indian institutions are also
giving enough importance
to providing international
exposure.
According to a UNESCO
report, India is one of the
most cost-effective
countries for foreign
students compared to the
cost of major educational
centres in other countries.
Many Indian universities
and educational institutes
are ranked among the top
institutions in the world,
and they are steadily
climbing the list. Among the
main reasons to study in
India are its IITs, IIMs, IISCs
and AIIMS, etc. Even
opportunities in India for
research, internships and
careers with multinational
companies provide a
causative environment for
professional development
during and after studies. To
promote
internationalization in
India, the universities are
taking several steps like
improving infrastructure,
internationalizing the
curriculum, appointment of
foreign faculty, forging
international collaborations,
lexibility in admission
cycles, multiple entries and
exit rules, etc.
Overall, the Indian
education system has a
strong and secured position
at the international level,
with the largest higher
education network.
Undoubtedly, India has
become a popular
destination for foreign
students for various higher
education courses.

Indian Education System Reshaping the Future

Tamso Ma
Jyotirgamaya,
AsatymaSatyagam
aya and
MrityumaAmritamagam
aya,' this is a wonderful
Vedas prayer that says, 'O
Divine, lead us from
darkness to light, from
untruth to truth and
from death to life
eternal.' Education is for
the very purpose which
ought to help people
grouping in the darkness
see the light, know the
truth and be led on the
path of ful ilment.
As early as the 5 and
6 Centuries, in India, we
had Universities like Taxila
(Takshashila) and Nalanda
that stood like the
lighthouse guiding
generation on the path to
ful ilment and prosperity.
Before this, 5000 years
ago, we had the Gurukul
system of education where
the student and teacher
used to stay together till
the student learnt all that
the teacher wanted to
impart to him and prepare
him for the world.
Most of these
universities and
educational institutes
were focused on teaching
religious dictates and
included mathematics and
logic subjects. It was in the
intermediary years that
our education system was
in luenced by the English
people when India was
under the dominance of
Colonial rule.
On the positive side, the
British education system
helped people think
logically, that inally led to
banishing many social evil
practices. On the negative
side, the British system
encourages rote learning
to be reproduced in the
examination. It has very
less scope for creativity.
We have not much been
able to evolve from the
British Education system
introduced in the 19
Century.
Today many of our
Educational institutes and
universities are still
heavily in luenced by this
education system. 'If you
don't change what you are
doing today, all of your
tomorrows will look like
yesterday,' - Jim Rohn.
To help Indian
Universities be the
lighthouse that guides the
younger generation on the
path of ful ilment, here are
some of the things that
need to be addressed:
• Education a doorway
to character building:
Education has to evolve
from just a licence in
hand to get a job to
character building for
the younger generation.
In many instances, we
are guilty of imparting
education in a way that
can be described as
'putting the cart before
the bullock.' Education
should be built on the
philosophy that 'It is not
what one gets, but what
one becomes that is more
important.' Once we
build a capable younger
generation, the students
will automatically get all
the attractive
opportunities they
desire.
Today's education system
is more focused on helping
students to be a job–ready.
It is not wrong to do so.
But, we have to remember
that getting a job is not all
in all. It is not the only
purpose of education. This
philosophy that we have
come up with can stunt
the development of
students from realizing
their full capacity. Our
education system is guilty
today of duplicating
graduates who all have
lost their individuality and
never realized their full
potential.
University should be a
place where students
discover their so-called
passion and develop the
necessary skills to bring
them forth for the bene it
of society.
• Education should be
questioned-based, not
answer-based:
Today, a student who
goes to school, college or
university looks to his
teachers and professors
as people who have all
the answers. The
student feels that one of
his primary duties is to
rote all the answers
given by the teacher and
reproduce them in the
examination. Today we
evaluate the student
based on how well they
can duplicate the
answers in the
examination.
Undoubtedly, this trend
of getting ready-made
answers has
discouraged innovative
thinking, research bent
approach and out-of-
the-box thinking.
We are far behind in the
Global Innovation Index
compared to other
countries like China or
America. As of the 2021
survey, India stands at 46
rank. However, patents
iled in India have grown
considerably, per the
World Intellectual
Property Organization
(WIPO). In 2021, 58,502
patents were iled in our
country, but the number is
still a fraction of the 5.30
lakh patents granted in
China and 3.52 lakh
patents granted in the
USA, according to the
Economic Survey. It also
noted that 1.79 lakh
patents were granted in
Japan in 2021, and 1.35
lakh were granted in South
Korea, respectively, as of
2020.
The panacea for this is
to help our students not
with the right answers but
the right questions. It is to
help them with the
necessary environment to
help them evolve the
answers to the problems.
One grows strong when he
struggles with problems
for a longer period, and we
have to teach students to
Standpoint
'

grapple with issues for a
long. In our classroom,
labs, and workshops, we
need students who ask
questions, who are willing
to grapple with the
questions and help the
answers evolve. We would
do well if our educational
institutes and universities
had the tagline – "We
welcome and entertain
questions here!"
• Education should help
evolve from a dualistic
to non-dualistic
mindset:
These are the times
when students
specialize in an area of
their interest. We have
now moved from
specialization to super-
specialization. It is not
rare to ind many people
around us who have a
double doctorate and all
these things are surely
good but not enough.
Many educational
institutes and universities
give us the idea that one
discipline is separate from
the other. This encourages
a dualistic mindset among
our students. So a student
of STEMM (Science,
Technology, Engineering,
Mathematics and
Medicine) will never feel
an af inity toward a
student of Liberal Arts or
Literature.
So, if I am a Master's in
Literature, I feel that I am
not cut out for technology
and have nothing to do
with it. But the world out
there doesn't work that
way. The inter-disciplinary
approach is the
watchword when it comes
to being effective. Gyan
Nagpal says,
"Breakthrough innovation
occurs when we bring
down boundaries and
encourage disciplines to
learn from each other." It is
a welcome change to see
that many universities in
India and abroad are now
opening up to this new
avenue of inter-
disciplinary approach.
Hasso Plattner, the co-
founder of SAP software
and businessman, says
about the educational
approach at Stanford,"At
Stanford, we teach design
–thinking - that is, we put
together small
interdisciplinary groups to
igure out what the true
needs are and then to apply
the art of engineering to
serve them." When our
students learn to see the
world that is woven
together as a whole from
different parts, when they
know that synergy is the
outcome of the sum of
smaller parts working
together, then they can
realize the full potential of
coming together,
respecting each other and
working together for a
better tomorrow.
This quote from Henry
Ford is well known:
"Coming together is the
beginning, staying
together progress and
working together a
success." We all know the
wonders of the founder of
Apple Company, Steve
Jobs, who also learnt
Calligraphy at Reeds
College. He pursued this
after he dropped from his
regular course in Reeds.
Learning Calligraphy
helped him incorporate
the beautiful typography
in Apple computers and
eventually all computers
caught up with the same.
This is an example of an
interdisciplinary approach
that a non–dualistic
mindset can encourage to
take and to produce
wonders.
Conclusion: Indian
universities have a lot of
potential and
opportunities to be the
guiding light in shaping a
promising future for the
world. We need to re-think
our approach to education.
We need to learn, de-learn,
and re-learn so that we are
not burdened with the old,
and we evolve with time to
be equipped and afford the
best to our students. Like
the Sigmoid curve that
indicates constant learning
and invention for survival,
Indian universities must
evolve before they can
effectively carve out a path
of ful ilment and shape a
promising future for the
world.

Myths About
Studying
Abroad
42

he cost of pursuing
Tstudies overseas is
one of the main
worries people have. When
inancial considerations are
taken into account, people
assume that higher
education overseas is too
expensive and out of their
reach. However, that is
untrue. Planning ahead and
doing some research will
help you uncover a variety
of reasonable options that
will reassure you that it
won't be too expensive. The
price of the course is
determined by the city,
school, and course you
select. Students can now
receive inancial aid and
scholarships from
numerous universities.
Universities are making
special efforts to offer
inancial aid and
scholarships as interest in
studying abroad rises.
Countries like Germany and
Canada also offer PR, which
will let students to work
abroad and offset the cost of
their Masters or Bachelors
degrees.
It's All Fun and Frolic
It's unheard of to think that
studying abroad will be
enjoyable in every way.
Much more than that is
involved. It's a way to learn
useful information while
also pursuing experience
and adventure. You can
learn about so many diverse
cultures and customs of
Article

various individuals and
places by studying abroad.
The perfect study abroad
program will strike a
balance between learning
and enjoyment. It is a
wonderful chance to
become immersed in other
cultures, habits, and
languages. To be able to
return home with a satis ied
understanding of an
educational adventure, it all
comes down to the
experiences you have while
studying abroad.
Must Be Able to Speak a
Foreign Language
The requirement that
students speak the local
language in order to study
abroad is another prevalent
misconception. In fact, there
are lots of study abroad
programs where the foreign
university offers English-
language classes. Even while
it may be advantageous to
speak your own tongue,
many students pick it up by
engaging with locals while
abroad. Additionally, some
students decide to enroll in
language immersion
courses while they are
overseas. Remember that
there are other English-
speaking nations where
studying abroad is fairly
common, including
Australia, England, and
Ireland, if you are uneasy
about not knowing the
native language.
While being able to speak
the language is a major plus,
it is not necessarily a big
deal. The vast majority of
programs are delivered in
English at various venues.
As a result, one of the
admittance requirements
includes testing students'
English language
pro iciency. Speaking
English is adequate for
those who want to study
abroad because many
countries are hospitable and
kind to international
students.
I'll Lose an Entire
Semester or Year
There is no truth to this
study abroad program myth.
Many students can travel
abroad without delaying
their graduation dates
thanks to the diversity of
study abroad opportunities
offered at most institutions.
Initially, discuss the optimal
time to study abroad with
your academic advisor. Even
more institutions have
developed study abroad
programs whose credits
properly match their pre-
requisites for majors. You
must carefully plan your
study abroad experience to
prevent delaying your
graduation or missing a
semester. After meeting
with your adviser, inquire
about programs through the
study abroad of ice that
meet your requirements for
scheduling. If your major is
highly rigorous, you might
be able to travel overseas
over the summer or winter
vacation.
You Will Find Identical
Courses in Your Country
Although this assertion is
largely true, there are a
number of errors that
surround it. The main
motivation for students to
study abroad is the value of
the degrees offered by these
universities. Some of the
world's top colleges are
located in nations including
the United States, Australia,
and Canada. The level of
education is unmatched,
even if the courses are the
same. The latter is
subordinate to the former in
terms of knowledge. These
colleges place a strong
emphasis on assisting
students in translating
academic ideas into
practical applications.
Should You Be Studying
Abroad?
It is a straightforward
question, yet answering it is
quite dif icult. Many people
have left their home nations
to attend their ideal
institutions, and you can
join them!
Pay special attention to
what sparks your curiosity
or increases your passion
for a prospective location or
nation. These elements will
provide you a general idea
of what to concentrate on as
you try to decide if you want
to be studying abroad. It
might be an issue of
language, geography, or
cultural customs.
Once you've identi ied a
nation that its your
objectives and purpose,
start researching speci ic
cities or colleges because
factors like culture, cost of
living, safety, and other
factors may have a big
impact. See if you can
respond to these inquiries!
• Am I ready to move out
of my country?
• Does my budget allow
me to bear expenses
while studying abroad?
• What country should I
apply in?
• What are the programs
that interest me?
• What universities offer
the programs of my
interest?
• Is there inancial aid
available at the
university?
• What would the visa
process be like?
• What is the application
process to apply to the
university of my choice?
• How do I ind
accommodation for
studying abroad?
• Am I prepared to
interact with people
with different opinions
and cultures?
• Will I bene it from
studying abroad, and
how?
How did you fare on these
inquiries? You are well-
equipped to take action and
realize your goals if you can
answer them with ease. If
you were unable to respond
to any of these questions,
don't panic; now you are
aware of the things you still
need to improve on.
In A Nutshell
Therefore, the quality of
your education is what
matters, not whether you
want to study at home or
abroad. What you can
understand and learn, and
whether you can put what
you've learned into practice.
Additionally, as the world
becomes more digital, you
always have the choice to
register in online degree
programs provided by
prestigious colleges, which
is equally important.
