Re: [MTC Global] Employability of graduates is a big concern – Report

Dear Sirs,

The Industrious Politicians' ownership of privatized higher education have become like their distilleries' effluent lagoon; they stink.  Swatch Bharat has lot of things to clear here too.

  • The corrupt system first breeds: shortage of quality faculty, high student-teacher ratios.
  • This leads to poor infrastructure driven by further negative factors like out-dated curricula.
  • Then institutional - industry linkages are obviously waste of valuable time for both.

Despite these situations, small proportion of Indian graduates are considered employable, even attracting near a Crore of Rupees per anum package; this can happen only in India.


Global relevance and competitiveness may be beyond the reach of Ph.D students, as we have studied through another thread on this platform and shoved the issue under the rug already by closing further discussions.

Thanks and regards,


Prof.G.S.Autee

Subject: [MTC Global] Employability of graduates is a big concern – Report
 
While the Indian higher education system has made considerable progress in terms of capacity creation and enrolment in the last decade, it lags significantly in terms of global relevance and competitiveness, according to a study by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry, or FICCI, and Ernst & Young, writes M Saraswathy for Business Standard.

The report released at the FICCI Higher Education Summit said that low employability of graduates is driven by factors like out-dated curricula, shortage of quality faculty, high student-teacher ratios, lack of institutional and industry linkages and lack of autonomy to introduce new and innovative courses.

"Only a small proportion of Indian graduates are considered employable. This reflects in the fact that placement outcomes drop significantly as we move away from top tier institutions," said the report. It added that this resulted in the closing down of lower-rung institutions that are not able to deliver high-quality outcomes.
