Dear Colleagues,
A good suggestion for utilizing such assets is to start "Skill Development Centres'.
My suggestion is "Why not we start Flexible Degree/Diploma Programs for Working Professionals?" or those who want to work. It should be based on Employability Skills, Technical and Social Skills.
Most of the Pacific nations like Australia, Newzeland, Indonesia, PNG etc. these programs are more demanded than the regular degree programs. This is only because of the curriculum designed by the industry-academic professionals in collaboration.
Why not MTC Global take initiative in this? I will be first one to be a part of this program as I have worked 3 years in PNG with such programs.
Warm Regards

Thank you Professor Banerjeeji,
I agree with you views and ground realities.But under your and mine views are hidden the the basic issues and their remedies (solutions) too!
It is all about business strategies for one's survival (Institute or individual), remotely concerned with national development, e.g., see your points 1 and 2.
My main concern is:
- How to use the assets created by the would be closing colleges be for national cause?
- Mr. Krishna has suggested to convert such colleges into skill development centers. Good proposal.
- What means we can adopt to minimize the losses of both students admitted and employees?
- To penalize the institute or not? If not to be penalized, how to use the potential of such Trusts for national development? Of course, no compensation is recommended but certainly Govt. can provide them loan facilities.

Dear Prof. Waghodekar,Greetings and Regards!My take on business schools and private universities is very clear.1. Poor infrastructure2. Low class faculty who have done PhD from private universities and willing to work for a pittance3. No government or statutory body to help our plight4. Closing an institute is never an option till we give up not themSince I shifted to Bangalore to Mumbai 2 years back there are huge strategic, leadership and vision issues. Mumbai all three b schools I worked we got 6th pay and freedom in domains. Here in Bangalore there in tremendous instability, no PF, no group insurance, no health benefits, huge firing without any reason and (salaries in a top university you will be amazed is delayed beyond 3 months).There is a policy flaw basically and we need to represent central and state governments. All of us know what is AICTE!Best wishes,Dr. Sunmeet Banerjee
@ iPhoneMy take is:
- It (closing institutes) is a part of business cycle as we have been considering education as a service industry.
- The institutes being closed have generated national assets. How to bring them (assets) in the cause of national development is a matter of urgent consideration.
- Is it justifyable to impose penalty on such colleges? Do we impose penalty on lock-out or bankrupt industry?

Subject: [MTC Global] Survival for the fittest~ 275 engineering colleges have applied for closure, AICTE chairman says--COIMBATORE: A total of 275 engineering colleges across the country applied for closurethis year, said chairman of All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) Anil D Sahasrabuddhe on Friday.
The maximum number of institutions that have applied for closure are from Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh. "The number of institutions are almost equal from all states. Tamil Nadu and Andhra alone have more," Sahasrabuddhe said here.
In the past two years, the AICTE has been actively working on reducing the quantity of engineering institutions across the country. The regulatory body has also reduced the penalty for closing down an engineering institution that was a deterrent for many colleges which were willing to shut in the midst of poor demand.Source: TOI--EDUCATE, EMPOWER, ELEVATEProf. Bholanath DuttaFounder & PresidentMTC Global: A Global Think Tank inHigher Educaiton Education, ISO 9001: 2008Partner: UN Global Compact I UN Academic Impact
