NEP 2020, which was launched on 29th July this year after cabinet approval, is touted to usher in transformational reforms in education system in India. After all, it replaces the last NEP policy of 1986, and was unveiled by none other than Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the mammoth stage. He asserted that new policy will bolster research and innovation in the country to make it self-reliant. Its impact will be felt right from schools to Post Graduate Diploma Courses in India.
We have more than 500 B Schools in the country that will need to rise to the challenges posed by the new policy and optimize the opportunities it presents. In a recent conference organized by Education Promotion Society of India, Dr Anil D. Sahasrabudhe, Chairman, AICTE stated that B Schools offering PG Courses in India will need to improve their programming quality. It means increased focus on research, curriculum, faculty, as well as exposure to students. This will lead to enhanced learning experiences and industry-relevant skills training for MBA students. But as Dr. Jitendra K. Das, Director, FORE School of Management commented at the conference, the proof of the pudding lies in the eating, and the key to the success of the policy depends on its implementation. Yet, in its nascent stages NEP can be looked at positively, with several transformative changes in store for management students.
At VJIM, Hyderabad we have consistently focused on interdisciplinary relationships. Our research cell has promoted projects that bring practical solutions to real life business problems. Our IT and Communication Lab, Centre for MSME, and state of the art Learning Resource Centre are the driving force for new technology solutions and innovations, which are the desired outcome of NEP 2020.
