About the Book
About the Book Higher education not only decides the future of the youth of this country, but also of our country herself. In India, the diversity of the population and the sheer numbers are astoundingly astronomical. We have to strike a balance between both quality and quantity, how so much they may appear to be lying in the opposite dimensions, but still we have to hold them together to find a common centre for ensuring a net progress of our populations... India prides herself in being a soft power and a population of highly educated, trained and skilled workforce. Certainly, higher education is the fuel for this soft power. Thus the role of higher education in India is not only pivotal, but also defining and transformative.

Preface
Dear Readers,

It is my pleasure to dedicate this volume on higher education to you all.

We are at the intersection of time when higher education is growing in magnitude and dimensions in India. After the colonial phase, and the struggling decades, the Indian economy is on firmer grounds, and a collective need to make the presence of India felt on the global scene is felt. One of the most important things for achieving this is higher education and research. This is also the time when National Education Policy 2019 ha been presented by the Ministry of Education. It is not all, an unprecedented calamity, for this generation in the form of the COVlD-19 pandemic is also. underway. In view of all these circumstances, it is important to look at the issues and challenges the academics in general, academic institutions, teachers, and students have to face.

This volume aptly has 19 chapters covering a wide range of issues under consideration. Some of the contexts that have been explored here for gaining a larger perspective on the present and future of Higher Education in India include The National Education Policy 2019; need of innovation and, pedagogy; employment and, employability of the students who receive Higher Education; ICT and, online mode of teaching; the Covid pandemic; the need of reforms in Higher Education; National aspirations and, how they can be met with Higher Education; blended learning and MOOCS; and the role of libraries in Higher education.

1 is sure the teasers will find this volume of use in their research, and for gaining an understanding of the Higher Education scenario in India contemporarily, so that Educational Policy, its implementation, and planning can be done in an effective way. Wish you a happy reading!
