Higher education

2009-01-20T00:56:00.000-08:00

Higher education refers to a level of education, that is provided by universities, vocational universities, community colleges, liberal arts colleges, institutes of technology and other collegiate level institutions, such as vocational schools, trade schools and career colleges, that award academic degrees or professional certifications.

Since 1950, Article 2 of the first Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights obliges all signatory parties to guarantee the right to education. At the world level, the United Nations' International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights of 1966, guarantees this right under its Article 13, which states that "higher education shall be made equally accessible to all, on the basis of capacity, by every appropriate means, and in particular by the progressive introduction of free education".

National Institutes of Technology (NITs) are premier colleges of engineering and technology education in India. They were originally called as Regional Engineering Colleges (RECs). In 2002, the Union Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, decided to upgrade, in phases, all 17 Regional Engineering Colleges (RECs) as National Institutes of Technology (NITs), on the lines of the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).These institutes are rated just next to the IITs in terms of student quality, research and placements. There are currently 20 of them, the latest being NIT, Agartala.The Cabinet, at a meeting presided over by Prime Minister of India Dr.Manmohan Singh, approved the proposal to introduce the National Institutes of Technology(NIT) Bill 2006 in parliament to bring 19 such institutions within the ambit of the act. Their locations are deliberately scattered throughout the country with the government norm of an NIT in every major state of India for regional development. The individual NITs after the introduction of the NIT Act will function as an autonomous technical universities and hence draft their own curriculum and functioning policies.

IITs Indian Institutes of Technology

2009-01-20T00:52:00.000-08:00

The Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), are a group of thirteen autonomous engineering and technology-oriented institutes of higher education established and declared as Institutes of National Importance by the Parliament of India. The IITs were created to train scientists and engineers, with the aim of developing a skilled workforce to support the economic and social development of India after independence in 1947. The students and alumni of IITs are colloquially referred to as IITians.

In order of establishment they are located in Kharagpur (1950; as IIT 1951[1]), Mumbai (1958), Chennai (1959), Kanpur (1959), Delhi (1961; as IIT 1963), Guwahati (1994), Roorkee (1847; as IIT 2001), Bhubaneswar (2008), Gandhinagar (2008), Hyderabad (2008), Patna (2008), Punjab (2008) and Rajasthan (2008). The Government of India has announced plans to add three more IITs, to be established at Indore, Mandi and Varanasi (via conversion of the IT BHU). Some IITs were established with financial assistance and technical expertise from UNESCO, Germany, the United States, and Soviet Union. Each IIT is an autonomous university, linked to the others through a common IIT Council, which oversees their administration. They have a common admission process for undergraduate admissions, using the Joint Entrance Examination (popularly known as IIT-JEE) to select around 4,000 undergraduate candidates a year. Postgraduate Admissions are done on the basis of the GATE, JMET, JAM and CEED. About 15,500 undergraduate and 12,000 graduate students study in the IITs, in addition to research scholars.

IIT alumni have achieved success in a variety of professions. Owing to the autonomy of the IITs, these institutes are among those few institutes (the other institutes being NITs) in India that offer degrees in technology (B. Tech.) at the undergraduate level as opposed to the Bachelor of Engineering (BE) degrees awarded by most other Indian universities. Most of the IITs were created in early 1950s and 1960s as the Institutes of National Importance through special acts of Indian Parliament. The success of the IITs led to the creation of the Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIIT) in the late 1990s and in the 2000s.

India and Education

India, being a developing nation, struggles with challenges in its primary education and strives to reach 100% literacy. Universal Compulsory Primary Education, with its challenges of keeping poor children in school and maintaining quality of education in rural areas, has been difficult to achieve Kerala is the only Indian state to reach this goal so far.All levels of education in India, from primary to higher education, are overseen by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (Department of Higher Education (India) and Department of School Education and Literacy), and heavily subsidized by the Indian government, though there is a move to make higher education partially self-financing. The Indian Government is considering to allow 100% foreign direct investment in Higher Education.

Education in India

2008-12-15T08:36:00.000-08:00

India has been a major seat of learning for thousands of years, dating back to ancient seats of learning like Nalanda. In modern times, Indian educational institutions (such as the IITs, IISc, IIMs, NITs,AIIMS, ISI, JU, BITS, and ISB) are well known in the heart.

India, being a developing nation, struggles with challenges in its primary education and strives to reach 100% literacy. Universal Compulsory Primary Education, with its challenges of keeping poor children in school and maintaining quality of education in rural areas, has been difficult to achieve Kerala is the only Indian state to reach this goal so far.

All levels of education in India, from primary to higher education, are overseen by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (Department of Higher Education (India) and Department of School Education and Literacy), and heavily subsidized by the Indian government, though there is a move to make higher education partially self-financing. The Indian Government is considering to allow 100% foreign direct investment in Higher Education.

There are broadly four stages of school education in India, namely primary, upper primary, secondary and Senior secondary.
Overall, schooling lasts 12 years, following the "10+2 pattern". However, there are considerable differences between the various states in terms of the organizational patterns years of schooling, mainly due to the existence of various State Education Boards.

The government is committed to ensuring universal elementary education (primary and upper primary) education for all children aged 6-14 years of age. Primary school includes children of ages six to eleven, organized into classes one through five. Upper Primary and Secondary school pupils aged eleven through fifteen are organized into classes six through ten, and higher secondary school students ages sixteen through seventeen are enrolled in classes eleven through twelve. In some places there is a concept called Middle/Upper Primary schools for classes between six to eight. In such cases classes nine to twelve are classified under high school category. Higher Education in India provides an opportunity to specialize in a field and includes Technical Schools. Some of them arethe Indian Institutes of Technology and Indian Institutes of Informaton Technology.

In India, the main types of schools are those controlled by:
The state government boards, in which the majority of Indian children are enrolled. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) board. The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) board. National Institute of Open Schooling International Schools affliated to the International Baccalaureate Programme. According to the latest Government Survey undertaken by NUEPA (DISE, 2005-6), there are 1,124,033 schools allover the country.
.

Pre-primary EducationPre-primary education in India is not a fundamental right, with a very low percentage of children receiving preschool educational facilities. The largest source of provision is the so called Integrated Child Development Services and Anganwadis. However, the preschool component in the same remains weak.

In the absence of significant government provisions, the private sector is reaching to the relatively richer sections of society and has opened a large number of schools throughout the country. Provisions in these kindergartens are divided into two stages - lower kindergarten (LKG) and upper kindergarten (UKG). Typically, an LKG class would comprise children 3 to 4 years of age, and the UKG class would comprise children 4 to 5 years of age. After finishing upper kindergarten, a child enters Class 1 of primary school.often kindergartens are considered an integral part of regular schools. Though there is a marked trend towards exclusive prep schools. A special Toddler/Nursery group at the age of 2–2½ is also part of the pre-primary education. It is run as part of the kindergarten. However, creches and other early care facilities for the underprivileged sections of society are extremely limited in number. There are some organized players with standardized curricula coming of age which covers a very small share of the urban population. Overall, the percentage pf enrollment of pre-primary classes to total enrollment (primary) is 11.22% (DISE, 2005-06).

During the eighth five-year plan, the target of "universalizing" elementary education was divided into three broad parameters: Universal Access, Universal Retention and Universal Achievement. Which in broad sense of terms means, making education accessible to children, making sure that they continue education and finally, achieving the set quality goals. As a result of these education programs, by the end of the year 2000, 94% of India's rural population had primary schools within one km and 84% had upper primary schools within 3 km. Special efforts were made to enroll SC/ST and girls. The enrollment in primary and upper-primary schools has gone up considerably since the first five-year plan. So has the number of primary and upper-primary schools. In 1950-51, only 3.1 million students had enrolled for primary education. In 1997-98, this figure was 39.5 million. The number of primary and upper-primary schools was 0.223 million in 1950-51. This figure was 0.775 million in 1996-97.

In 2006-7, an estimated 93% of children in the age group of 6-14 were enrolled in school. The Government of India aims to increase this to 100% by the end of the decade. To achieve this the Government launched the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan.

The strategies adopted by the Government to check the notorious drop-out rates are:
Creating parental awareness Community mobilization Economic incentives Acheiving the set Minimum Levels of Learning. District Primary Education Programme or the DPEP programme National Programme of Nutritional Support to Primary Education popularly known as the Mid-day Meals Scheme. The 86th Constitutional Amendment Act was passed by the parliament to make the Right to Elementary Education a fundamental right and a fundamental duty (see also right to education). National Elementary Education Mission A National Committee of State Education Ministers has been set up within the Ministry of Human Resource Development as the Chairperson of the committee. Media publicity and advocacy plans.

While availability of primary and upper primary schools has been augmented to a considerable extent, access to higher education remains a major issue in rural areas (especially for girls). Government high schools are usually taught in the regional language, however urban and suburban schools usually teach in English. These institutions are heavily subsidised. Study materials (such as textbooks, notebooks and stationary) are sometime but not always subsidised. Government schools follow the state curriculum.

There are also a number of private schools providing secondary education. These schools usually either follow the State or national curriculum. Some top schools provide international qualifications and offer an alternative international qualification, such as the IB program or A Levels.

In the past decades, there has also been an effort to increase attendance in vocational high schools and raise standards at the nation's ITIs - Industrial Training Institutes. In 2008, it is estimated that over a million completed vocational training through the Craft Training and Apprentice Training Schemes. Annual enrolment for high school level vocational programs (at vocational high schools, ITIs and private vocational institutes) is now approaching 3 million.

Higher education in India has evolved in distinct and divergent streams with each stream monitored by an apex body, indirectly controlled by the Ministry of Human Resource Development and funded jointly by the state governments. Most universities are administered by the States, however, there are 18 important universities called Central Universities, which are maintained by the Union Government. The increased funding of the central universities give them an advantage over their state competitors.

Apart from the several hundred state universities, there is a network of research institutions that provide opportunities for advanced learning and research leading up to a PhD in various branches of science, technology and agriculture. Several have won international recognition. 25 of these institutions come under the umbrella of the CSIR - Council of Scientific and Industrial Research and over 60 fall under the ICAR - Indian Council of Agricultural Research. In addition, the DAE - Department of Atomic Energy, and other ministries support various research laboratories.

The Indian Institutes of Technology were placed 50th in the world and 2nd in the field of Engineering (next only to MIT) by Times Higher World University Rankings Earlier, an Asia Week study had ranked them as the best technical universities in Asia.Indian Institute of Science is the premier research institute in the field of science and engineering. There are several thousand colleges (affiliated to different universities) that provide undergraduate science, agriculture, commerce and humanities courses in India. Amongst these, the best also offer post graduate courses while some also offer facilities for research and PhD studies.

Technical Education has grown rapidly in recent years. With recent capacity additions, it now appears that the nation has the capability to graduate over 500,000 engineers (with 4-yr undergraduate degrees) annually, and there is also a corresponding increase in the graduation of computer scientists (roughly 50,000 with post-graduate degree). In addition, the nation graduates over 1.2 million scientists. Furthermore, each year, the nation is enrolling at least 350,000 in its engineering diploma programs (with plans to increase this by about 50,000). Thus, India's annual enrollment of scientists, engineers and technicians now exceeds 2 million.
2008 data from Maharashtra's Higher Secondary Board reveals that .87 million passed the school leaving exam and enrolled in college for undergraduate studies. Adding enrolment in polytechnic programs and graduates from other boards puts Maharashtra's total at close to a million and its college enrolment ratio at roughly 39%. States like Tamil Nadu, Haryana and Kerala also have comparably high tertiary enrollment ratios. In Andhra Pradesh, the tertiary enrolment rate is now approaching 25%.

Across the country, tertiary enrollment rates have been increasing at a rate between 5-10% in the last decade, which has led to a doubling of the tertiary enrolment rate to near 20%. (However, outdated government data does not yet capture this trend, which can be seen from analyzing individual state data.)

International league tables produced in 2006 by the London-based Times Higher Education Supplement(THES) confirmed Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU)'s place among the world's top 200 universities. Likewise, THES 2006 ranked JNU's School of Social Sciences[4] at the 57th position among the world's top 100 institutes for social sciences.

Calcutta University was the first university of modern India .Other prestigious research institutes are The Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics , The Asiatic Society , The Indian Statistical Institute.

The National Law School of India University is highly regarded, with some of its students being awarded Rhodes Scholarships to Oxford University, and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences is consistently rated the top medical school in the country. Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) are the top management institutes in India .

The private sector is strong in Indian higher education. This has been partly as a result of the decision by the Government to divert spending to the goal of universalisation of elementary education. Within a decade different state assemblies has passed bills for private universities, and some of these universities are performing quite well. Some of these universities include Birla Institute of Technology and Science, Amity University and Xavier Labour Relations Institute.
Accreditation for universities in India is required by law unless it was created through an act of Parliament. Without accreditation, the government notes "these fake institutions have no legal entity to call themselves as University/Vishwvidyalaya and to award ‘degree’ which are not treated as valid for academic/employment purposes". University Grants Commission Act 1956 explains,

"the right of conferring or granting degrees shall be exercised only by a University established or incorporated by or under a Central Act carlo bon tempo, or a State Act, or an Institution deemed to be University or an institution specially empowered by an Act of the Parliament to confer or grant degrees. Thus, any institution which has not been created by an enactment of Parliament or a State Legislature or has not been granted the status of a Deemed to be University, is not entitled to award a degree."

Accreditation for higher learning is overseen by autonomous institutions established by the University Grants Commission:

All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) Distance Education Council (DEC) Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) Bar Council of India (BCI) National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) Medical Council of India (MCI) Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) Indian Nursing Council (INC) Dental Council of India (DCI) Central Council of Homeopathy (CCH) Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM) Veterinary Council of India (VCI)

Engineering is the design, analysis, and/or construction of works for practical purposes. One who practices engineering is called an engineer, and those licensed to do so have formal designations such as Professional Engineer or Chartered Engineer. Engineers use imagination, judgment, and reasoning to apply science, technology, mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of
useful objects or processes. The broad discipline of engineering encompasses a range of specialized subdisciplines that focus on the issues associated with developing a specific kind of product, or using a specific type of technology.

Higher Education in India

2008-12-15T06:59:00.000-08:00

Education has ever been looked at Indian culture as a holistic effort since time immemorial. Indian culture is in the core attributes of education beginning from ”Gurukul” type of education, where the disciples lived in the house of the Master who taught them what all things he knew for years together. And medical education has never been an exception since the period of Vedas.As a tradition education is being looked upon holistically even today in India. The students practise it more holistically, whatever be its field. Be it Medicine, Engineering, Electronics, Humanities or any subject one is likely to get proper Higher Education in any of these fields.Today the Higher Education is controlled and maintained by the University Grants Commission in India. They keep the quality of education on par with the international standards, which is a heritage India acquired since the British occupation.Since then all fields of Education remained up-to-date in quality and in quantity. Medical education, Engineering education or any type of professional education be it, it remains so even now.CollegesThe literacy level in India is the highest compared to anywhere else in the world. The reason for the growth of literacy is because of the umpteen numbers of various types of Colleges and Universities offering different kinds of education in various fields beginning from Medicine to Engineering to Astronomy and Forestry.We have plenty of Colleges and Universities offering higher education opportunities In Medicine, Dentistry, Engineering etc offering different types of professional degrees such as MBBS, MD, MS, BDS, MDS, and all kinds of Graduate and Post Graduate degrees. So is the case with the braches of engineering too. Affordability Unlike in foreign countries the number of seats are limited for NRI / PIO / Foreign students , Higher Education in India can be afforded by any foreign student or NRI student , provided he or she meets the selection or admission standards prescribed the Universities or Colleges.Higher EducationAny foreign student or student from NRI sector, can find a Degree course or PG course of his or her choice anywhere in India. Higher Education is not limited to cities alone. Higher Education is rampant and is accessible and affordable. Colleges and Universities that control education streams are aplenty. All of them offer an international quality of education. UniversitiesToday there are 16 Central Universities in India, which are funded by the Government. Another one is being planned at Manipur. Besides, there are 37 colleges, which have been accorded university status and are called "Deemed Universities" too. Graduating to the status of University means the concerned College or Institution is maintaining a global standard of education and they will have the most modern laboratories to help learning the profession. The state governments, under UGC law, are entitled to establish their own universities, funded by the respective state government.

Engineering Education in India All engineering educational institutes and universities are affiliated to All India Council for Technical Education AICTE. All engineering colleges or institutes do offer graduate (BE or BTech) and post graduate( M E or M Tech). There are private and Government colleges available in plenty under each State of India and under almost all universities. We have a full list of State wise Universities or colleges offering degree and PG in professional courses such as medical, dental and engineering fields.In short India has some of the top engineering and medical institutions in the world that offer cheapest, affordable but high quality medical, dental and engineering courses.For a full list of colleges and Universities that offer the courses of your choice in Medical Schools, Dental and engineering.
Educational Softwares
The educational software runs primarily on servers which may be hundreds or thousands of miles from the actual user. The user only receives tiny pieces of a learning module or test, fed over the internet one by one. The server software decides on what learning material to distribute, collects results and displays progress to teaching staff. Another way of expressing this change is to say that educational software morphed into an online educational service.

MEDICAL EDUCATION IN INDIA
Medical Education in India is also given an important consideration from an international point of view. The Medical Council of India (MCI) controls medical Education in India.All States and all Universities or Colleges that give medical education is monitored and timely inspected by the Medical Council of India every year. They allow colleges or universities to grant MBBS, MS, MD, BDS, MDS or any Graduate or PG degree or diploma provided those colleges are strictly adhering to the standards set by the Medical Council of India. The MBBS course is of four and a half year's and is followed by one year of Compulsory Rotating Residential Internship. The course is taken in three stages, following a short foundation course which provides basic principles of Communication, Ethics and Problem Based Learning. The first stage is for 12 months and covers the basic sciences of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry. The next stage is for 18 months and includes Pharmacology, Pathology, Microbiology and Forensic Medicine. The last stage is for 24 months and covers Ophthalmology, Otorhinolaryngology, Community Medicine, General Medicine, Pediatrics, Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery and Obstetrics & Gynecology.

Entrance Examination
All professional courses are open for the right students. But the admission to such courses is open only through an Entrance Examination. In India a degree like MBBS comes as under graduate, and MD or MS falls under PG. PG diploma courses are also available in various branches in medical education.All higher education Degrees or Diplomas are valid internationally, especially in the field of medicine and engineering.

AdmissionsTo obtain a medical seat candidates should appear for various entrance tests in All India level. An eligible candidate in the State has to be pass 12th class or equivalent with 50% marks in aggregate and pass the All India Entrance Test such as AIIMS Delhi, AIPGE, AIPMT Delhi, AFMC CEE-Kerala. In the state level, one student has to get through Common Entrance Test of concerned states. Most of the Government Medical Colleges offer admissions only to Indian students on the basis of their performance in a competitive entrance test, However, few Government Medical Colleges have some quota for NRI/Foreign students.

Medical and Dental council of India Any education in degree level or postgraduate or PG level in Medicine is either classified into medicine or Dental. Both are controlled and monitored by Medical council and Dental council, separately.A student has to keep a watch over the medical, dental and engineering entrance tests conducted in India by various States and Universities, if he or she has to get Admission to such courses. Usually the time for such tests will be around a couple of months earlier than the month in which the actual courses start in Medical Schools. The time a new academic year begin in India is usually the month of July.
Dental Education in India Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS)/ Master of Dental Surgery ( MDS )This is a four year course with one year of compulsory rotary internship, thus making it a five year course. Candidates who have completed 10+2with Physics, Chemistry and Biology are eligible for this course.

Education in India

Education in IndiaFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaIndia has been a major seat of learning for thousands of years. While some of the country's universities (IITs, IISc, IIMs, AIIMS, ISI, NITs, BIT's, TIFR and ISB) are among the world's well-renowned, it is also dealing with challenges in its primary education and strives to reach 100% literacy. Universal Compulsory Primary Education, with its challenges of keeping poor children in school and maintaining quality of education in rural areas, has been difficult to achieve (Kerala is the only Indian state to reach this goal so far). All levels of education in India, from primary to higher education, are overseen by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (Department of Higher Education (India) and Department of School Education and Literacy), and heavily subsidized by the Indian government, though there is a move to make higher education partially self-financing. Indian Government is considering to allow 100% foreign direct investment in Higher Education.

Distance Education Correspondence Courses Universities India

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaDistance Education is a field of expertise exploring situations in which the learner and the teacher are separated in time, space or both. Desmond Keegan, (1956) defined as key characteristics of this field:

• The separation of the teacher from the learner(s)• The use of technical media• The influence of an educational organizationOther authors (Gayol, 1999) have added as key attributes:•The emphasis on the design of educational materials• The central role conferred to learners in the educational processThe lack of immediacy between instructor and student has a profound impact in the educational transactions, in the design of materials and in the organization of the teaching/learning process (Moore and Kearsley, 2005).
Types of distance education courses:
Correspondence conducted through regular mail Internet conducted either synchronously or asynchronously Telecourse/Broadcast where content is delivered via radio or television CD-ROM where the student interacts with computer content stored on a CD-ROM PocketPC/Mobile Learning where the student accesses course content stored on a mobile device or through a wireless server

List of Biotechnology/ Bioinformatics institutes in India

Biotechnology is technology based on biology, especially when used in agriculture, food science, and medicine. The UN Convention on Biological Diversity has come up with one of many definitions of biotechnology:[1]
"Biotechnology means any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use."
This definition is at odds with common usage in the United States, where "biotechnology" generally refers to recombinant DNA based and/or tissue culture based processes that have only been commercialized since the 1970s.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaComputer science, or computing science, is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implementation and application in computer systems. Computer science has many sub-fields; some emphasize the computation of specific results (such as computer graphics), while others relate to properties of computational problems (such as computational complexity theory). Still others focus on the challenges in implementing computations. For example, programming language theory studies approaches to describing computations, while computer programming applies specific programming languages to solve specific computational problems with solutions. A further subfield, human-computer interaction, focuses on the challenges in making computers and computations useful, usable and universally accessible to people.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Engineering is the design, analysis, and/or construction of works for practical purposes. One who practices engineering is called an engineer, and those licensed to do so have formal designations such as Professional Engineer or Chartered Engineer. Engineers use imagination, judgment, and reasoning to apply science, technology, mathematics, and practical experience. The result is the design, production, and operation of
useful objects or processes. The broad discipline of engineering encompasses a range of specialized subdisciplines that focus on the issues associated with developing a specific kind of product, or using a
specific type of technology.

Computer Science
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaComputer science, or computing science, is the study of the theoretical foundations of information and computation and their implementation and application in computer systems. Computer science has many sub-fields; some emphasize the computation of specific results (such as computer graphics), while others relate to properties of computational problems (such as computational complexity theory). Still others focus on the challenges in implementing computations. For example, programming language theory studies approaches to describing computations, while computer programming applies specific programming languages to solve specific computational problems with solutions. A further subfield, human-computer interaction, focuses on the challenges in making computers and computations useful, usable and universally accessible to people.

Media Mass Communication institutes in India
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mass communication is the term used to describe the academic study of various means by which individuals and entities relay information to large segments of the population all at once through mass media.
In the United States, many university journalism departments evolved into schools or colleges of mass communication or "journalism and mass communication," as reflected in the names of two major academic organizations. In addition to studying practical skills of journalism, public relations or advertising, students also may major in "mass communication" or "mass communication research." The latter is often the title given to doctoral studies in such schools, whether the focus of the student's research is journalism practice, history, law or media effects. Departmental structures within such colleges may separate research and instruction in professional or technical aspects of newspaper and magazine publishing, radio, television, and film. Mass communication research includes media institutions and processes, such as diffusion of information, and media effects, such as persuasion or manipulation of public opinion.

Indian Law is largely derived from English common law. Much of contemporary Indian law shows substantial European and American influence. For example, various acts and ordinances first introduced by the British are still in effect today, though many have been removed in their entirety or phased out.

While Indian laws are well-intentioned, there is a general perception among the population that one can get away with any crime due to various flaws in the execution. But still the system is efficient and the long hands of Indian law engulfs criminals anyway. Common grievances regarding law implementation include corruption (bribes are given to officials, police and even the judiciary), inadequate protection to witnesses (witnesses are threatened or bribed into silence), inept prosecution, etc. Perhaps the greatest flaw is that criminals and offenders who have connections, or who are part of the system, so to speak, are let off, as was seen in the Jessica Lal case, given below. Prominent cases involving blatant miscarriage of justice include

Education in India

2008-02-08T07:46:00.000-08:00

Education in India

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
India has been a major seat of learning for thousands of years. While some of the country's universities (IITs, IISc, IIMs, AIIMS, ISI, NITs, BIT's, TIFR and ISB) are among the world's well-renowned, it is also dealing with challenges in its primary education and strives to reach 100% literacy. Universal Compulsory Primary Education, with its challenges of keeping poor children in school and maintaining quality of education in rural areas, has been difficult to achieve (Kerala is the only Indian state to reach this goal so far). All levels of education in India, from primary to higher education, are overseen by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (Department of Higher Education (India) and Department of School Education and Literacy), and heavily subsidized by the Indian government, though there is a move to make higher education partially self-financing. Indian Government is considering to allow 100% foreign direct investment in Higher Education.

Preprimary Education
Preprimary education in India is not a fundamental right, with a very low percentage of children receiving preschool educational facilities. The largest source of provision is the so called Integrated Child Development Services (or ICDS), however, the preschool component in the same remains weak. In the absence of significant government provisions, private sector (reaching to the relatively richer section of society) has opened schools. Provisions in these kindergartens are divided into two stages - lower kindergarten (LKG) and upper kindergarten (UKG). Typically, an LKG class would comprise children 3 to 4 years of age, and the UKG class would comprise children 4 to 5 years of age. After finishing upper kindergarten, a child enters Class 1 (or, Standard 1) of primary school. Often kindergarten is an integral part of regular schools. Younger children are also put into a special Toddler/Nursery group at the age of 2–2½. It is run as part of the kindergarten. However, creches and other early care facilities for the underprivilaged sections of society are extremely limited in number. There are some organized players with standardized curriculums such as the Shemrock Preschools which cover a very small share of the population. Overall, the % enrollment of pre-primary classes to total enrollment (primary) is 11.22% (DISE, 2005-06).

Elementary Education
Primary school in the remote Kanji village of the Kargil district.During the eighth five-year plan, the target of "universalizing" elementary education was divided into three broad parameters: Universal Access, Universal Retention and Universal Achievement i.e., making education accessible to children, making sure that they continue education and finally, achieving goals. As a result of education programs, by the end of 2000, 94% of India's rural population had primary schools within one km and 84% had upper primary schools within 3 km. Special efforts were made to enroll SC/ST and girls. The enrollment in primary and upper-primary schools has gone up considerably since the first five-year plan. So has the number of primary and upper-primary schools. In 1950-51, only 3.1 million students had enrolled for primary education. In 1997-98, this figure was 39.5 million. The number of primary and upper-primary schools was 0.223 million in 1950-51. This figure was 0.775 million in 1996-97.

Higher Education
Higher education in India has evolved in distinct and divergent streams with each stream monitored by an apex body, indirectly controlled by the Ministry of Human Resource Development. and funded by the state governments. Most universities are administered by the States, however, there are 18 important universities called Central Universities, which are maintained by the Union Government. The increased funding of the central universities give them an advantage over state competitors.

The Indian Institutes of Technology were placed 50th in the world and 2nd in the field of Engineering (next only to MIT) by Times Higher World University Rankings although they did not appear in the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Academic Ranking of World Universities.
International league tables produced in 2006 by the London-based Times Higher Education Supplement(THES) confirmed Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU)'s place among the world's top 200 universities . Likewise, THES 2006 ranked JNU's School of Social Sciences[3] at the 57th position among the world's top 100 institutes for social sciences.
The National Law School of India University is highly regarded, with some of its students being awarded Rhodes Scholarships to Oxford University, and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences is consistently rated the top medical school in the country[citation needed]. Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) are the top management institutes in India.[citation needed]
The private sector is strong in Indian higher education. This has been partly as a result of the decision by the Government to divert spending to the goal of universalisation of elementary education.

Accreditation for higher learning is overseen by autonomous institutions established by the University Grants Commission:
All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) Distance Education Council (DEC) Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) Bar Council of India (BCI) National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) Medical Council of India (MCI) Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) Indian Nursing Council (INC) Dental Council of India (DCI) Central Council of Homeopathy (CCH) Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM) veterinary council of india (VCI)
