Guidelines for General Development Assistance to Central, Deemed and State Universities During the X Plan 2002-2007

Abstract

From Introduction: The Tenth Plan is being launched at a time when the country is in the process of major economic and technological changes based on the policy of liberalisation and privatisation and at the same time, when emphasis is laid on rural development. In the changed scenario, the educated human resource, having the latest knowledge and skill will be in greater demand for participation in the social and economic development of the country. This, in turn, will build up pressure on universities and colleges for providing trained human resource by introducing career oriented courses and ensuring the quality and relevance of education. Information technology is further contributing to this change and will have a major impact on the structure, management and mode of delivery of the education system.
