COURSE INNOVATION IN UNIVERSITIES AND EMPLOYMENT GENERATION

           COURSE INNOVATION IN UNIVERSITIES AND EMPLOYMENT GENERATION:    

            Southern states in India are experiencing a boom in new colleges and universities but, facing a challenge of  poor student enrollment, decline in employability among graduates/post graduates produced due to a situation of lack of relevance in course of study to societal needs at the global level.

           Teaching ,support staff lacks a sharpness in latest domain knowledge to cater  the specific needs which are ever changing due to knowledge explosion and, are unable to cope with the competition in the global front.

          Please see this situation critically, at present there is a glut in Electronics and Communication graduates,and many are jobless,struggling to get employment,or underpaid. But their sub domain ''Digital image processing'' is a subject very much in demand in medical imaging,''X'' rays,CAT scan, and digital interpretations.All that is required is an INNOVATION of linking the relevant process, and sub domains and offer it as a course of study .Students may take it as a certificate /diploma and consequently elevate their  employability.

          Universities can generate funds by offering it through distance/online modes also.This approach needs some creative and selfless approach to overcome the ''INITIAL RESISTANCE'' from the respective domain of knowledge/technology experts. But such ''MATING'' of several sub-domains in Agriculture,Medicine,Arts and Science,Sports, may generate huge potential in the employment front.Prince. Do you have a question?----please let us have some dialogue ------on this.

DEVELOPMENT RELATED HICCUPS IN UNIVERSITIES, ENGINEERING, COLLEGES/COLLEGES.

DEVELOPMENT RELATED HICCUPS IN UNIVERSITIES, ENGINEERING COLLEGES/COLLEGES.

YES: Situation -1.Institutions with good infra-structure[ buildings/ linking roads, far away from people concentration]but teaching and support staff lacks required skills.

Situation-2.Too many colleges in a particular district/location and too many qualified staff but demand supply of students not adequate.

How to fix this situation: Situation one and two are complimenting each other by careful manipulation this can be settled well.

Situation-3. Reputed age old institutions, glut in teaching and support staff, qualified but not having  all the enough  skills to deal the situation, poor HR management, out dated rules/regulations, native bias, communal/regional prejudice, proliferation of malpractices-subjective situations leading to employee over crowding, anxieties, affiliations, agitations, lock outs ,crimes etc.

How to fix it: Adequate employee well fare measures , need based identification of job diversification, and specific skill based in service training, re- designation/ appropriate service rules-and gradually situation will get stabilized after a considerable period of time. But a very creative/ innovative, persuasive, unbiased leadership, with an expertise in human psycho-dynamics is required to handle the situation.

Situation-4.Specific to a particular district in Tamil Nadu. Kanya Kumari district in Tamil Nadu,southern most tip of India is with a total area of less than 650 sq.miles and a total population of less than 19 lakhs ,with highest literacy and population density .There are more than 30 engineering colleges ,one tech..University facing acute shortage in student enrollment. Students prefer to join in far away institutions/universities despite the availability of institutions at the doorstep.

How to fix it:-1. Colleges may have to provide whole some facilities for all round development, student mix-up facilities at intra - inter-institutional level, A well developed infrastructure for extra-curricular activities with good hostel facilities. Scholarships for meritorious students, besides academic, fine arts, sports and other talents also to be provided. Students from northern, north-western/eastern, educationally backward states should be reached, and may be provided with concessions, privileges in treatment.

2- In Malaysia, native Tamils and  Chinese finds it very difficult to get admissions for higher studies due to their reservation policies. Our institutions can provide quality programs at an affordable cost to their currency exchange value to Indian rupees. As well as students from most of the African countries, may find India a suitable destination in the aspect of affordability/safety/education quality etc.

3-Collaboration with job providers: Tie ups,with potential job generators/ providers, appropriate training in required skills ‘’soft skills’’and such training. Bring,appoint faculty with International education/exposure/tie ups with higher ranked Universities may improve the situation. Let us wish and hope Engineering colleges at Kanyakumari district will think, innovative and move ahead .DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION PLEASE –Prince.

PIT FALLS IN UNIVERSITY RESEARCH PROGRAMS- HOW TO FIX IT?

PIT FALLS IN UNIVERSITY RESEARCH:
Situation: Rapid expansion in information technology and the speed in collection,storage and retrieval capabilities exceed the mundane and customary evaluation procedures of the research report,besides, laxity and dilution in identification of specialized areas in research and respective experts lead to the proliferation of ''JACK OF ALL TRADES'' in advisers and examiners.In addition to this''COPY AND PASTE'' facilities leads to duplication and replication of studies.
HOW TO FIX THE SITUATION?
1, Modify the research program regulation format, with more emphasis on course work with more focus on acquiring in depth ''DOMAIN KNOWLEDGE'' related to the topic.
2,Adequate research directives and adviser rating,merited upon innovation,development and creation of patents towards the solution of imminent problems of the surrounding community.
3,A triangular arrangement involving the government,industry,and universities in topic selection,funding,supervision,and evaluation to provide solutions to the problems at hand may improve the situation.
4,Research auditing should be a part of routine''ACADEMIC AUDITING'' in the universities, and may employ the technique of ''CORRELATION ANALYSIS,META ANALYSIS'' of the results will help to maintain quality and originality in research.
