PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES IN INDIA, Analysis of Laws and Model Guidelines
|
|
Dear Readers, |
|
We at Symbiosis have prepared a detailed concept note regarding the
establishment of Private Universities in India.
|
|
In this era of liberalization and globalization of education, it is germane to
attract, encourage and promote the private sector investment in the realm of
Higher Education and lay the legislative pathway to establish and incorporate
private self-financing Universities in India. Establishment of Private
Universities has been a major milestone in the field of higher education in
India. Private Universities is a new concept where self financed, private
universities can be established by private sponsoring bodies without financial
aid from the State. A number of private universities have been established in
various States. It is the right time to develop and implement a progressive
framework that provides for opportunities to deserving private institutions and
educational promoters, with relevant and sufficient experience and exposure in
the field of higher education, so as to contribute towards the expansion of
higher education and research in India. |
|
This concept note and analysis is an effort to compare the prevalent State
Policies, which are varied from one State to the other, for establishment of
State Private Universities. The note also puts forth recommendation for creating
a broad framework in the form of guidelines for establishment and incorporation
of State Private Universities. The note consists of:
An Analysis and Recommendations Report &
Model Guidelines for establishment of State Private
Universities. Both these documents have been prepared after careful
study and assessment of various State Policies in this regard, relevant UGC
Regulations and relevant Hon'ble Supreme Court of India Judgement. |
|
Our objective in preparing the said concept note and report is to provoke
thoughts from readers for this milestone activity in privatization of higher
education namely, that of establishment of State Private Universities. We hope
that this note and report will encourage readers to send us their comments,
opinions and any other relevant data. We also hope that policy makers and others
concerned will find our report useful. |
