This volume focuses on the key trends and major developments in engineering education in India and reflects on the effects and challenges of its expansion on economic growth and development. Analysing several dimensions relating to the status and growth of engineering education, this book: Highlights, in the overall policy environment, the rapid growth of engineering education, imbalances in the growth between different branches of engineering education, changing trends and patterns in their growth, quality of education, gender inequality, and inequality by caste, region and economic status and labour market conditions that influence the demand for engineering education Reflects on the rapid growth of private sector in engineering education and its effects on equitable access, quality and other dimensions of higher education, and on overall development of the economy Investigates the socio-economic characteristics of the students going to private colleges/universities, financing by the government vis-à-vis students/households, the unsteady growth in public financing of engineering education and educational loans as a method of financing Explores the reasons behind the increasing demand of engineering education and the factors that have contributed to the rise of electronics engineering, computer science engineering and information technology-related areas of engineering as against some conventionally popular disciplines of engineering This volume will be of interest to students, teachers and researchers of education, higher education, engineering education, economics of education, sociology of education, and education and public policy. It will also be useful for policymakers and administrators in higher education, engineering/technical education in BRIC countries, and those interested in the study and growth of engineering education in advanced as well as emerging economies.

This book addresses various issues pertaining to engineering education in India. One of the mandates of the Indian National Academy of Engineering, an apex body of distinguished engineers and scientists, is to set up tracks for the countrymen for achieving excellence in engineering education. This book aims to identify such tracks. The obligations and rights of the stake holders and the government vis--vis engineering education are also discussed at length. The present engineering education and the skills it imparts to students are inadequate to meet new and emerging challenges of equality of capabilities which is required for international mobility in the WTO environment. Since India is not yet a member of the Engineers Mobility Forum and only a provisional member of the Washington Accord at present, recognition of our Engineering degrees abroad is not automatic. Of course, due to their generally recognized brand names, the degrees from IITs and many other prominent engineering institutions in the country are readily recognized in most countries. Steps are presently being taken by the National Board of Accreditation of AICTE to obtain full membership of the Washington Accord. Re-engineering the engineering education to achieve excellence and sustain it thus an important objective. This book represents a systematic analysis highlighting the issues related to this objective. The book is the outcome of an INAE-sponsored research study that examines the challenges faced by engineering education in terms of access, equity, regional imbalance and quality. The study is also aimed at analyzing the weaknesses of the present system and identifying the requirements of the modern teaching-learning processes. The study suggests measures for improvement in faculty qualifications and competence, and finally, it provides some insight for instituting healthy academic governance.

How the language of “merit” makes caste privilege invisible in contemporary India. Just as Americans least disadvantaged by racism are most likely to endorse their country as post‐racial, Indians who have benefited from their upper-caste affiliation rush to declare their country post‐caste. In The Caste of Merit, Ajantha Subramanian challenges this comfortable assumption by illuminating the controversial relationships among technical education, caste formation, and economic stratification in modern India. Through in-depth study of the elite Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs)—widely seen as symbols of national promise—she reveals the continued workings of upper-caste privilege within the most modern institutions. Caste has not disappeared in India but instead acquired a disturbing invisibility—at least when it comes to the privileged. Only the lower castes invoke their affiliation in the political arena, to claim resources from the state. The upper castes discard such claims as backward, embarrassing, and unfair to those who have earned their position through hard work and talent. Focusing on a long history of debates surrounding access to engineering education, Subramanian argues that such defenses of merit are themselves expressions of caste privilege. The case of the IITs shows how this ideal of meritocracy serves the reproduction of inequality, ensuring that social stratification remains endemic to contemporary democracies.

This book is a collection of fifteen contributions that undertake a detailed analysis of seven broad dimensions of India’s economy and society. All the contributions approach the problems in their respective areas empirically, while being theoretically informed. The book begins with a section containing detailed and empirically supported chapters on the recent crisis in India’s agricultural sector and the reforms in the agricultural markets. Another section is dedicated to the issue of infrastructure financing, and new ways of financing large infrastructural projects are critically examined. Other sections are related to innovations and technology impacts on industry; international trade; health and education; labor and employment; and the very important issue of gender. The selected discussion topics are both of contemporary importance and expected to remain so for some time. Most of the chapters introduce readers to data in addition to methods of analyzing this data, to arrive at policy-oriented conclusions. The rich collection carries learnings for researchers working on a wide range of topics related to development studies, as well as for policymakers and corporate watchers.
