Introduction

In the fifty odd years since India gained independence its higher education has undergone a metamorphic change. From a system, which focused on the needs of elite groups of society, nurtured by colonial roots it has changed into an egalitarian system attempting to meet the aspirations of a vibrant democracy.

Today, India can boast of the second largest higher education system in the world (306 universities) with a network of institutions spread over the entire country. Yet there are several disturbing trends.

First there is unplanned expansion of higher education skewed mainly in favor of urban India.

Secondly whereas newer, frontiers are opening up in the economy unfortunately the existing system continues to focus on the development of older narrower skill sets and specializations.

Thirdly in an era when cultures, education and business all are getting globalize and when we ate moving to a ‘knowledge’ driven world existing education system is yet to grapple with the new realities and the necessity of developing individuals with a global outlook

The massive changes that have taken place in the socio economic environment require a reorientation of the educational system to make it more responsive to the demands of India’s all round growth. Reorientation and restructuring of the educational programmes in higher education system are essential for economic growth and sustainable development.

Therefore it is imperative that in the face of rapidly changing global economy, higher education institutions have to learn as to how to cope with the emerging challenges, choose appropriate technology options and also avail new opportunities as they unfold. It is about dynamic curricula, fresh approaches to traditional teaching methods, raising resources and to plan creatively and constructively. This calls for a new vision new links and partnerships with the world of work, community and society, it calls for changes in methods, contents, pedagogical approaches and modes of delivery of education.

The success of an academic institution depends greatly on its academic ethos, organization culture and professional competency of its faculty and systems as well as its ability to continuously keep in touch with the contemporary environment. This requires the faculty to be innovative, curriculum dynamic and Relationship with stakeholders strong and real time.

Keeping in view the foregoing the growing emphasis on global competitiveness, the need to bridge the gap between theory and practice and the growing demand for highly skilled personnel in the frontier areas of management, engineering and technology, medicine, architecture, IT and Computing, media and Communication, films and television, healthcare, insurance, biosciences, fashion, law, hospitality and Tourism and other fields of education, society the Babu Banarasi Das Educational Society, proposes to establish its Institute NIEC titled as NIEC Deemed University encompassing all the major disciplines the majority of the courses will be innovative, proactive oriented flexible, modular and ensure that the students acquire the necessary skills and knowledge for successful careers.
