Announcements

Shri Ratan Tata's passing away is a great loss not only to Indian Industry but also to many social service organisations like ours. His compassion, humility and commitment to social causes has also sustained an organisation like ours for last 15 years. We do hope he will continue to inspire us all in our work for the betterment of socially and economically disadvantaged. May his soul rest in peace.

Higher Education today should emphasis on equality of opportunity to help students become what they want to become so that they have a choice and are not dictated by necessity.

There is an immediate need to ensure that the talented are not denied the benefits of higher education for want of funds. To achieve this goal an effort will be made to work with government and other agencies to make educational institutions more responsive to the needs of these groups.

Quality and Productivity
Need for Quality Education - While the frontiers of the system have expanded to incorporate newer elements, it has been in most cases accompanied by dilution in quality of education, especially of the middle and the lower levels. In India expansion has generally meant declining quality education.

Need for revamping- Under-Graduate Education - The proposed society will sponsor pilot programs for universities that show innovation in teaching methods, moving to credit systems, giving students more choices, allowing them to choose courses from different departments etc.

Higher Education and Knowledge Economic at Global level - The merger of theoretical and practical knowledge is the bedrock of economic development. In Indian higher education, the link between knowledge and productivity has to be strengthened. The Foundation may provide training opportunities in different fields.

Forging International Linkages - It will also help foster institutional linkages and cross fertilization of ideas.

Need for Information on International Opportunities - There is a great lack of information about international opportunities. One of the activities of the Foundation will be to provide value added service.
