Guwahati, Dec 18 (PTI) Governor Prof Jagdish Mukhi has urged authorities of private universities to focus on quality research and teaching to make Assam one of the top-performing states in the education sector.<\/p>\n
He also stressed on the role of universities to encourage students to play a decisive role as catalysts for the growth of the country.<\/p>\n
“Education is the central pillar of a nation’s growth. Its quality and penetration and its efficacy in terms of producing job-ready graduates with strong ethical values and patriotism determine the future of a nation,” Mukhi said while addressing a conference of chancellors and vice-chancellors of six private universities in the state on Friday.<\/p>\n
The governor urged the VCs of private universities to set high standards to transform their respective institutions into centres of excellence.<\/p>\n
Referring to the National Education Policy, 2020, which puts emphasis on practical learning, he advocated hands-on experimental and analytical studies for all students.<\/p>\n
He also referred to the newly introduced system – Impacting Research Innovation and Technology- and asked the VCs to use it to focus on a technology-driven knowledge base.<\/p>\n
IMPRINT provides the overarching vision that guides research into areas that are predominantly socially relevant.<\/p>\n
Mukhi further said the institutions of higher studies should think of implementing dual degree programmes for the benefit of future generations.<\/p>\n
