 EDUCATIONAL INDUSTRY
Introduction:

An academic revolution is in the process in the education sector as there is a

marked change in the scope and opportunity. There is a paradigm shift in
bringing about a change in this dynamic sector. In the recent years education
sector has become an enterprise having a business orientation, facing fierce
competition from similar groups. There is a need to bring in the right kind of
people into this sector to make it more challenging. In a technology driven
society, knowledge plays prime role in writing the fate of a nation and this
knowledge is evident in higher education. This demands a massive investment
in higher education so that highly skilled manpower can be ensured.

Higher education system in the developing country is going through a radical

change in the recent times. It has laid emphasis on quality and social
accountability. With the advent of globalization, achieving excellence in
several areas such as student performance and competitiveness, qualification of
faculty, research promotion, training and developing the right kind of staff and
so on has become challenging.

organizing, directing and controlling of the procurement, development,
compensation, integration, maintenance and reproduction of human resources to
the end that individual, organizational and societal objectives are
accomplished”.

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT:
The Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, has directed all its professors
to spend as much time on research as they do teaching. The IIM-A's board of
governors has also put in place a new performance measurement system in
which research will be given as much weightage as teaching in the annual
appraisals of its faculty.

An IIM-A faculty is also allowed to spend 53 days in a year for advisory and
consulting work, which generates revenues for the institute. The new norms on
research do not alter the time allotted for consulting. Earlier, research and
related activities were considered only for promotions or for confirming
teachers on probation.

Faculty members will now need to do more research and get their work
published in various journals, domestic as well as international. "If any research
work is pub If any research work is published in a top international journal, the
faculty member would get higher credits. If a faculty member exceeds
expectations, he will get higher credits...this will help them in their career,"
Pandey .

At IIM-Ranchi , faculty members' salaries is carried a variable pay component

based on targets achieved, such as the number of research papers, number of

 National Institute of Technology (NIT)
The National Institute of Technology (NIT) is a public engineering institution
located in India. It is recognised as an Institute of National Importance by
the Government of India. The foundation stone for this institute was laid by
then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru on 1959, the first in the chain of 32 NITs
(formerly known as RECs) in the country. The institute was renamed as the
National Institute of Technology, in the year2002.
The National Institutes of Technology (NITs) are autonomous public institutes
of higher education, located in India. They are governed by the National
Institutes of Technology Act, 2007, which declared them as institutions of
national importance alongside Indian Institutes of Technology. 
The NIT Council is the supreme governing body of India's National Institutes of
Technology (NIT) system and all 31 NITs are funded by the Government of
India. 
These are some of the Engineering collages which has been ranked top in the
country. These institutes are among the top-ranked engineering colleges in India
and have one of the lowest acceptance rates for engineering institutes, of around
2 to 3 per cent, second only to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) in
India. All NITs are autonomous which enables them to set up their own
curriculum. The language of instruction is English at all these institutes. As of
2019, the total number of seats for undergraduate programs was 21,133 and for
postgraduate programs 8,050, in all the 31 NITs put together.
HISTORY
• During the second five-year plan (1956–60) in India, a number of
industrial projects were contemplated. To ensure enough supply of
trained personnel to meet the demand for these projects, a decision was
taken to start the Regional Engineering Colleges (RECs), at the rate of
one per each major state, which can churn out graduates with good
engineering merit. Thus, seventeen RECs were established from 1959
 onwards in each of the major states. Each college was a joint and
cooperative enterprise of the central government and the concerned state
government.
• The RECs were jointly operated by the central government and the
concerned state government. Non-recurring expenditures and
expenditures for post-graduate courses during the REC period were borne
by the central government while recurring expenditure on undergraduate
courses was shared equally by central and state governments.
• The success of technology-based industry led to a high demand for
technical and scientific education. Due to the enormous costs and
infrastructure involved in creating globally respected Indian Institutes of
Technology (IITs), in 2002 Ministry of Human Resource
Development (MHRD) Minister Murli Manohar Joshi decided to upgrade
RECs to "National Institutes of Technology" (NITs) instead of creating
IITs. The central government controls NITs and provides all funding. In
2002, all RECs became NITs.

Organisational Structure
• The President of India is the ex officio visitor of all the NITs. The NIT
Council works directly under him and it includes the minister-in-charge
of technical education in Central Government, the Chairmen and the
Directors of all the NITs, the Chairman of University Grants
Commission (UGC), the Director-General of Council of Scientific and
Industrial Research (CSIR), the Directors of other selected central
institutions of repute, members of Parliament, Joint Council Secretary
of Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), nominees of the
Central Government, All India Council for Technical
Education (AICTE), and the Visitor.
• Below the NIT Council is each NIT's Board of Governors. The Board of
Governors of each NIT consists of the following members:
• Chairman - an eminent technologist / engineer / educationist to be
nominated by the Government of India.
• Member Secretary - Director of the NIT.
• Nominee of the MHRD, Government of India.
• Nominee of the Department of the Higher / Technical Education of the
respective state government.
• Head of another technical institution in the region or an eminent
technologist to be nominated by Central Govt.
• Director, IIT (in the region) or his nominee.
• Nominee of the UGC not below the rank of a Deputy Secretary.
• Nominee of the AICTE not below the rank of an Advisor.
• An alumnus of the institute from amongst alumni in education/industry to
be nominated by Board of Governors.
• Two representatives representing large, medium and small Scale
industries to be nominated by Central Government.
• One Professor and one Assistant Professor of the institute by rotation.
• The Director serves under the Board of Governors and is the school's
chief academic and executive officer. Academic policies are decided by
its Senate, which is composed of some professors and other
representatives. The Senate controls and approves the curriculum,
courses, examinations, and results. Senate committees examine specific
academic matters. The teaching, training, and research activities of
various departments of the institute are periodically reviewed to maintain
educational standards. The Director is the ex officio Chairman of the
Senate.
• The Deputy Director is subordinate to the Director. Together they
manage the Deans, Heads of Departments, Registrar, President of the
Students' Council, and Chairman of the Hall Management Committee.
Deans and Heads of Departments in NITs are administrative postings
rather than career paths. Faculty members serve as Deans and Heads of
Departments for limited periods, typically 2 to 3 years, then returning to
regular faculty duties. The Registrar is the chief administrative officer
and overviews day-to-day operations. Below the Head of Department
(HOD), are the various faculty members (professors, assistant professors,
and lecturers). The Warden serves under the Chairman of the Hall
Management Committee.
