THINK BIG?If yes, this is for you

THE 25000 Cr INDUSTRY IS CHANGING FOR GOOD. HIGHER EDUCATION IS POISED TO SEE INCREASED FOCUS ON QUALITY IN EDUCATION AND RESEARCH. THE INDUSTRY IS ALSO DEMANDING QUALITY GRADUATES, NOT JUST DEGREE HOLDERS. GOVT TOO IS PRIORITISNG QUALITY OVER QUANTIY. THESE ARE EXCITING TIMES FOR ALL STAKEHOLDERS.

01. GOVT FOCUS 02.CONSOLIDATION 03.TECH FOCUS

12th and 13th year plans of govt envisage doubling of student enrollments in colleges by 2030. Schemes like RUSA have been announced to drive result oriented funding of higher education institutions. INR 23,000 crore is the allocated spend in the next 10 years by govt. T he new regime is keen to push RUSA

The market is heading towards consolidation. The players who invested in quality have managed to grow while tactical players are shutting shops. This bodes well for industry as it will push long term investments in infrastructure

Technology is widely accepted as a promising solutions to bridge the gap between increasing student expectations and reducing faculty & infrastructure availability.
