The industry wants job-ready students. Earlier there was a gap, now the gap is decreasing. The curriculum has been revamped to prepare students for the workforce, the educationists say.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not just a subject but a transformative force reshaping education globally, and India must urgently reimagine its curriculum to remain relevant, experts said at the NDTV Education Conclave. Stressing the need for technology-integrated education, they called for foundational reforms rather than piecemeal updates.
Ratuldev Ghosh Choudhury, Advisor to GLA University, said India's higher education curriculum must undergo a complete overhaul to match the pace of global technological advancement. "You cannot avoid technology-right from the curriculum design to the way it is delivered and the environment in which it is developed," he said, noting that nearly 47-48% of Indian graduates are not employable.
He warned against incremental changes to outdated curricula. "The students we are getting have never seen analog, they have all seen digital. The curriculum that is coming to them is from the old age. We have to revamp from the scratch, bringing technology right in the curriculum-not just in topics, but subjects."
