Thank you Doctor. Look at how we run our institutes:
UGC/AICTE Specifies at least 90 days teaching/semester, i.e., 180 days (out of 360 days) pa. We hardly work 4-10 weeks/semester, i.e., in the range say 60 to 140 days pa. What is our productivity? Add 22 public holidays, 52 Sundays, 50-70 days vacation, one month for examinations, 15 days CL and 15 days for exam. preparation pa. Unaccounted days: we start late and finish early; university results declared late,late admissions, time consumed for campus and other cultural activities , other leaves like medical, maternity, paternity, etc. Where is the time for teaching and learning?

Prabhakarji , as usual once again you are on the spot:
Unless the faculty keeps abreast of ongoing developments through proactive interaction with industry we can't produce industry required students. Though industry institute interaction is slightly better in Tamilnadu, in other parts much needs to be done in this regard.
Faculty need to be encouraged to undertake industry internship kind of thing by spending at least a fortnight in a year in the industry in the chosen area. Then only they will be able to do justice. For this to happen meeting of the minds is a must between industry and institutions. Unless this happens and the curriculum keeps pace with changing requirements we might be hitting dead end sooner than later as far as relevance of MBA.

This is not unexpected while we have been following the foot-steps of traditional teaching methodology in more and more diluted form with the passage time, especially in engineering and management.However, this trend is not seen in the medical programs simply because no one can run medical programs keeping aside the hospital and patients.
But engineering and management prgs distance more and more far away from industry and market.
One cannot earn MBBS without going to hospitals, visiting the patients and intern-ship of sizeable duration in hospitals. Is it so for engineering and management? One can get UG/PG and even PhD in engineering/management without visiting industry or market.

Subject: [MTC Global] Management education has failed in India: Nirmalya Kumar--The traditional model of management education that has been practised in the country for decades has failed to serve its purpose, says Nirmalya Kumar, 56, member of the group executive council at Tata Sons, the holding company of the $108-billion, salt-to-software conglomerate.
This is evident from the massive outflow of management students seeking admission in foreign universities each year and the low level of internationally published research papers emanating from Indian business schools, adds Kumar, who is regarded as one of the world's leading management thinkers.
But green shoots of change are visible in the way management education is imparted in the country, with the arrival of some new-age business schools that appreciate the need of global managers for global businesses. In an interview, Kumar tells Forbes India that top management institutes here need to change their enrolment strategy and even hire teachers who have trained at top global institutions by offering them competitive salaries.
Edited excerpts:
In a sense, management education has failed in the country. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't be leaving the country to study abroad. We don't see too many Americans, Germans or Japanese students leaving their home countries to pursue higher studies.
Then comes the aspect of building world-class institutions. None of the Indian universities features among the top 200 in the World University Rankings (brought out by Times Higher Education). If you look at research, the entire universe of Indian faculty across management schools has together published less papers in leading international journals than I have over the course of my career. And I wasn't even the most productive in the world.
So business schools in India, especially the IIMs (Indian Institutes of Management), are stuck in the pre-1991 mentality, which is very much about controlling the supply of students that enter these schools and graduate each year, since there is no dearth of demand.
In that sense, these institutes function more like selection agencies who, through the entrance process, do a pre-selection of brilliant students for potential recruiters to choose from. The intellectual processing that they do with these students over the course of the academic tenure becomes irrelevant.
This model doesn't serve the country since those who can afford it prefer to study abroad and the intelligent ones get a scholarship. A majority of the remaining students are served by low-quality management schools that have sprung up across the country. They get a degree in business education from these colleges, but it has no value.[Source: Forbes India]
