Higher Education In India – Its Dynamics An Analytical Study

Abstract

        Higher Education means integrated development of personality which should be imparted through head, hand and heart. Rabindranath Tagore rightly said, “The higher education is that which does not merely give us information, but makes life in harmony with all existence”.

         India's higher education system is the world's third largest in terms of students, next to China and the United States. Unlike China, however, India has the advantage of English being the primary language of higher education and research. India educates approximately 11 per cent of its youth in higher education as compared to 20 per cent in China. The main governing body at the tertiary level is The University Grants Commission (India), which enforces its standards, advises the government, and helps to coordinate between the centre and the state. Universities and its constituent colleges are the main institutes of higher learning in India.
