Foreign Universities

Ive often wondered how best to de okay command. Id interchangeable to define commandment as the procurement of those uncanny skills which would enable a person to choose between what is right and what is not. Our Indian system of education since time immemorial has been sailing magnificently on the winds of hope, moral ropiness and moral principleal values with the principal objective of make all(prenominal)(prenominal) of us good human beings as opposed to sheer k immediatelyledge banks. As of today, Indian Education is an immaculate melange of our courtly ideals of education, blended with infrastructural and technological hell dust, rendering to the demands of modernization. over the decades, weve produced some very fine men and women. From Swami Vivekananda to Sir C V Raman, from Amartya Sen to Rajendra Pachauri, theyve all been fine lode stars of our educational system. Ive never really been a fan of the Western educational systems. Students on that point atomic n umber 18 bestowed with counselling too much unconditional liberty. Theyre treated like empyreal emperors at a time when they should be ordered to shut their PlayStations and take a good look at their school books.Theres too much rationalism in there and very little humanism, which in a sense explains the reason for the rapid moral degradation among a significant number of students in the West. Look at the list of school related criminal attacks widely distributed and youd observe the US perched handsomely at the precede. We read approximately every week about teen shootouts, teen pregnancies and yet do not wish to speak about them in the open. Its prohibited. We, Indian students here, atleast low the fear of failure, the fear of humiliation, the fear of corporal penalisation are compelled on to the right track as fara counsel as our pursuit of educational excellence is concerned.But the very fact that there exists no substantial force which can have similar influences on th e students of the West is indeed quite a concern. Another factor running(a) significantly against Western education is its exorbitant cost of education which closely puts it virtually out of reach for many middle class students domain of a function over. I know theres been criticism of our Indian educational system too. I know thereve been people cynical of our acidulated and stern methodology of education.But if the drilling good example is a indispensableness for intellectual growth, a boon for the nations ambitions of having an educated electoral roll, the antidote for illiteracy and ignorance, the quintessential need for individual prosperity, then why not abuse that path fearlessly? After all, it is single under pressure that char turns to diamond. The dominant employment of Indian Americans in the US economy is passably noticeable as well. As of 2008, 4000 PIO professors and 84000 students made their way into US universities and Indian Silicon Valley entrepreneurs generate whopping tax income of $250 billion every year.Is it not ironical then that the well oil products of our educational system are queen-sizedly responsible for the economic boom of a global tycoon? Whos the Big Daddy now? Is this not tangible tribute of our profound educational prowess? to a higher place all the number crunching and tangled statistics, above all the heated din of debates and discussions, just one explicate rings euphoria and triumph in my mind. Vande Mataram. Nothing else. Thank you. I have just received a list of the top Universities of the man (1) University of Cambridge (2) University of Oxford (3) Harvard University (4) University of California 5) The Stanford University (6) University of Tokyo and it is certainly not a matter of great pride that the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai is be 30th and except the IITs, not a single university has made to the top 50. it is p. m and the speed is so fast that you might see another(prenominal) for eign university getting into this list by the time I wind my speech. Todays topic states Should there be an entry of Foreign Educational ecesis or University in India and I stand here firmly fence the motion. India right now has 487 Universities and 2200 colleges whereas the requirement is 1000 Universities and 35000 Colleges more than.So foreign Universities is the only option left. Learning in a Foreign University has a decisive advantage in terms of ambience, cultural environment and most of all provides an international mix. For India to become an economic superpower, we first need to become an educational superpower. The number of universities and institutions of higher learning are wholly inadequate to cater to the aspirations of a billion people unless of course our purpose is to keep large sections of our population out of the education system.Having known different parts of the world and different types of institutions, I can say categorically that as far as the intel lect is concerned, we are second to none. How we can overlook the no-good state of our universities and institutions of higher learning. Results are not announced in time. military rating is neither objective nor done with any sensitivity. Regulation in education still dates back to the license-permit regime that could do precious little for the republic for over five decades.. Our Universities, have failed to impart education in all subject areas.Many new sciences and technologies are never introduced to our students immediately later on their inventions. We tend not to care too much for quality, and are pretty complacent about what is acceptable standards. What we lack is a work ethic that nurtures excellence in all its manifestations. The Chalta Hai attitude is predominant and the only way to break it is to expose this mindset to global standards. Recently cabinet has approved Foreign Educational Institution Bill 2010. I salute look of HRD, Mr. Kapil Sibbal for this revoluti onary move towards getting a class education in India.Afterall the bill upon becoming a law is sure to make it more convenient for domestic students to get world class education at their door steps. With this, I rest my case but not my thoughts. convey Ive often wondered how best to define education. Id like to define education as the procurement of those preternatural skills which would enable a person to choose between what is right and what is not. Our Indian system of education since time immemorial has been sailing magnificently on the winds of hope, moral coherence and ethical values with the principal objective of making all of us good human beings as opposed to mere knowledge banks.Over the decades, weve produced some very fine men and women. From Swami Vivekananda to Sir C V Raman, from Amartya Sen to Rajendra Pachauri, theyve all been fine lode stars of our educational system. I know thereve been people cynical of our harsh and stern methodology of education. But if the d rilling exercise is a necessity for intellectual growth, then why not tread that path fearlessly? After all, it is only under pressure that coal turns to diamond.

Is it not ironical that the well oiled products of our educational system are largely responsible for the economic boom of a global superpower? Whos the Big Daddy now?
