Developing a Model for Future Engineering Education

The development in the fields of Science&Technology are taking place at a very fast rate. As a result of this, various new branches of science and engineering are emerging out and the old ones as it is they become obsolte. For a country like India where there is abundance of brillient man power, if coupled with proper management of the other natural resources, can emerge out itself as a superpower in a span of couple of decades. To achieve this a revolution in the thinking of National policy makers i.e. Governments, Industrial Managements, Co-operative and Agricultural sectors, Educational bodies and common people is needed.

Non-formal Methodologies can play an important role in continual upgraduation of knowledge. Engineering Education must be looked upon as a tools to achieve an excellence in the working of the people and not a solution to solve/postpone the unemployment problem of the country.

To cater all this, a new system of imparting engineering education needs to be evolved, which is dynamic and capable in itself to change as per the need of time.

A model of such a system is proposed wherein the management of educational institute will be in the hands of industries and Government will exert only quality wise control on that. This model will be a socialistic one and a step towards technocracy.
