“As the university is not situated in a big city, lecturers and professors are apprehensive about joining Invertis (approx. 250 kms from Lucknow),” he tells as a matter of fact. Also, majority of students come from rural areas and lack basic communication skills. Therefore at Invertis, there are training cells for both students and faculty, he says and feels that developing soft skills is one of the most difficult parts of training.
Invertis organises a host of programmes like debate competitions and discussions to help students better their communication skills. Universities in rural India have an additional responsibility to prepare their students to face the outside world. They can do a phenomenal job in removing the inherent hitch in those coming from a rural background, he opines. At Invertis, the need to adapt to industry is well understood. Therefore, the curriculum changes every two years. This is done keeping in mind that the corporate world is growing at a fast pace and updating syllabi will equip students better to face the stiff competition, emphasises Prof. Sirohi.
“We also plan to explore opportunities to have an association with foreign universities. Our objective is to provide exposure to Invertis students,” he reveals. Prof. Sirohi, however, refrains from commenting on the future trends in the field of education. Today, the scenario is dynamic and it is very hard to predict the future. “We need to focus on building a strong base and provide opportunities to students for overall growth. Only then can they pave a way for themselves,” Prof. Sirohi signs off. Read More...
