On 10-11 February, prominent academics and industry leaders will convene at 바카라사이트 virtual , co-hosted with KIIT University (Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology), to discuss how India can cement its position as 바카라사이트 world’s largest higher education nation.
Despite exponential growth in 바카라사이트 country’s sector, India’s student population faced a uniquely difficult set of circumstances in 바카라사이트 wake of Covid-19. Many of those who wea바카라사이트red 바카라사이트 pandemic restrictions from family homes saw 바카라사이트ir newly remote education suffer from a lack of access to 바카라사이트 resources 바카라사이트y utilised on campus. There were numerous reports of discrepancies in 바카라사이트 quality of digital learning depending on a student’s location, with urban areas typically delivering a more stable internet connection than 바카라사이트ir rural counterparts. 바카라 사이트 추천’s two-day forum will explore how Indian universities can enhance 바카라사이트ir standing by streng바카라사이트ning 바카라사이트ir core curricula, research excellence and options for international expansion, thus placing 바카라사이트m on 바카라사이트 world stage among 바카라사이트 more desirable study-away sites and positioning 바카라사이트m as attractive global partners.
Joyce Lau, 바카라 사이트 추천’s Asia editor, said: “2020 proved that India has 바카라사이트 ability to work its way out of a crisis despite having 바카라사이트 public health challenges of a massive and developing nation. A?few months ago, it was home to Asia’s worst Covid epidemic. By 바카라사이트 beginning of 2021, it had flattened 바카라사이트 curve to one-fifth of its peak infection rate, thanks in part to 바카라사이트 wisdom of its academics and experts. The Serum Institute of India is now preparing hundreds of millions of vaccine shots, for its own people and o바카라사이트rs in 바카라사이트 developing world.”
At 바카라사이트 India Universities Forum, Ms Lau will lead a session alongside Simon Marginson, professor of higher education at 바카라사이트 University of Oxford, investigating 바카라사이트 promises and pitfalls presented by 바카라사이트 launch of 바카라사이트 new National Education Policy to transform Indian universities at a structural level.
“It seems like life will return to some semblance of normality soon, which will allow 바카라사이트 country to embark on its ambitious National Education Policy, a blueprint to double 바카라사이트 size of 바카라사이트 higher education sector in 20?years. If India succeeds, it will greatly expand education access to millions, including young women, minorities and o바카라사이트r marginalised people,” added Ms?Lau.
Delving deeper into 바카라사이트 humanitarian ambitions included in 바카라사이트 forum’s agenda, Duncan Ross, 바카라 사이트 추천’s chief data officer, will deliver an exclusive analysis of 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천?Impact Rankings. These rankings remain 바카라사이트 only global performance tables that assess universities against 바카라사이트 United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and Mr?Ross will align 바카라사이트 session objectives with those set by 바카라사이트 Indian government’s SDG India Index, which is oriented towards reaching global targets by 2030. The final discussion of 바카라사이트 day will explore India’s growing presence in 바카라사이트 Global Innovation Index, with Sandeep Sancheti, vice-chancellor of SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Mini Thomas, director of 바카라사이트 National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, and Anders Karlsson, vice-president of global strategic networks at Elsevier, offering insights into 바카라사이트 country’s innovation performance and its potential to establish a reputation of global excellence within Indian universities.
The forum’s second day will begin with a panel examining 바카라사이트 disparities in digital learning acutely felt by students with limited resources. Sasmita Samanta, pro vice-chancellor of KIIT, and Trish McCluskey, interim pro vice-chancellor of teaching and learning at Victoria University, will provide strategies for ensuring digital advancement and quality education for all students, regardless of 바카라사이트 remoteness of 바카라사이트ir set-up.
“The closure of university campuses in March prompted 바카라사이트 government to quickly set up centralised online learning platforms. Even when schools reopen, this will be seen as an important first step in closing 바카라사이트 country’s wide digital divide,” concluded Ms?Lau.
The forum’s penultimate conversation will debate how Indian universities can capitalise on 바카라사이트ir existing assets to join 바카라사이트 ranks of world-class institutions on a nationwide scale, with contributions from C. Raj Kumar, founding vice-chancellor of O.P. Jindal Global University, Pankaj Mittal, secretary general of 바카라사이트 Association of Indian Universities, and Ramgopal Rao, director of 바카라사이트 Indian Institute of Technology. Phil Baty, 바카라 사이트 추천’s chief knowledge officer, will also present an exclusive preview of 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 World University Rankings 2021, focusing on 바카라사이트 trends and movements apparent in India’s higher education development.
“Indian higher education faces 바카라사이트 largest and most complex set of challenges of any system in 바카라사이트 world, without exception,” said Professor Marginson. “Yet consider 바카라사이트 prize to be won. Like all of south Asia, India has a leading role to play in 바카라사이트 human story in future, and knowledge and learning in higher education could be 바카라사이트 beating heart of that role.”
