Life is changing and the best lesson that this life gives to us is to prepare for the changes by changing ourselves. We should be prepared for a different tomorrow. We should be constantly involved in searching for the options to change and improve ourselves. It is easier to remain stable, but it is more important to remain effective. To be effective, we have to quit our status quo and embrace dynamism. This lesson of life has to be incorporated by all including educational institutions. It is pathetic to find many institutions still continuing with decade old courses and curriculum, while they themselves realize that there is no relevance of those courses in the present context. There are many institutions, which still teach technologies, which are obsolete. Such institutions are playing with the future of the students. Due to such institutions, there is a rise in unemployable graduates. There is a need of transforming the higher education scenario of our country.<\/p>\n

Academic institutions must meet the challenges of the society through introduction of the programs and courses for meeting the needs of the society. Every educational institution must act vigilantly to help the society at large. The problems of the present times and the challenges of tomorrow should be the issues of the curriculum so that the institutions are able to prepare executives for the future. Every educational institution must engage in undertaking research about the current status of the society and must prepare a vision for the better tomorrow. Higher educational institutions must engage in preparing courses and programs for the future. They must actively engage in participatory research with the society with the sole objective of transforming the society.\u00a0 Suresh Gyan Vihar University has emerged as a pioneering institution in the\u00a0 field of higher education and research.

We have to prepare executives with vision to deal with the problems of urbanization. This is the reason that the university is now launching school of Built Environment. This is a welcome move. The issues of urban infrastructure must be addressed through higher education and research. The university has recently launched programs designed to prepare corporate leaders for tomorrow. The university has carried out comprehensive study to identify the most important issues affecting the common people. We found that public health and management of heath care institutions is the most important issue at present. Considering these issues, the university has decided to launch special program on public health and on management of health-care institutions. These programs will bridge the gap in this sector.<\/p>\n
