An Empirical Analysis of State Wise Enrolment of Higher Education in India

摘要

Higher education is difficult to receive, the rewards of self-improvement, job insurance, a development of character, and social improvements are what is going to satisfy you. Education is important because it plays a vital role in increasing our knowledge, helps us better “belong” in the society we live in, helps us get a job and much more. Higher education has received a lot of attention in India over the past few years. There are four reasons for this recent focus. First, country’s weak higher education system is being blamed for skill shortages in several sectors of economy. Second, reservation quotas in higher education institutions, particularly the more reputed ones that provide access to high status and best-paid jobs became a highly divisive issue, central to the policy of inclusive growth and distributive justice, and hence politically very important. Third, in the backdrop of the first two developments, it began to be argued that the country would not be able to sustain its growth momentum and maintain competitiveness unless problems with higher education are fixed. Last, demand for higher education continues to outpace the supply due to growing population of young people, gains in school education, the growing middle class and their rising aspirations. The current research study on “An Empirical Analysis of State Wise Enrolment of Higher Education in India” was formulated with the following objectives to find out the state wise students women and men enrolment in higher education in India, to find out the Stage-wise Enrolment of Students in Higher Education, to find out the Students Enrolment - Faculty-Wise (2008-2009).
