Today's news is that AICTE has allowed corporate with a turnover of 100 crore to enter into engineering colleges.I really wonder what is the reason behind it.Is there any survey which says there is a gap between the aspirants to an engineering college and the number of seats available to the.? Is this the reason that a big corporate wants to come in education and has given an "helping" hand to AICTE?.This is a great blunder. Instead they should study and come out with the notifications on many issues which can solve problems like:

1.Placement of engineering students into good corporate.

2. Enhancing the standard pedagogy at the engineering colleges.

3.Making them more employable rather than just gunie pigs to be tamed by corporate

4.Making the management of such colleges to be accountable on this count.

5.Making directors of such college to be more market driven and realistic rather than a typical academician


What is the fun of corporate coming into education with lot of dos and dont's in the hand of AICTE? Will they be allowed to act like corporate? They will have to hunt for a PHD as a director and not a dynamic practical person.
