Challenges Ahead

In this era of LPG, liberalization, privatization and globalization and with the impending implications of GATT and WTO looming large, education in increasingly and inevitably being construed as commercial product and business enterprise, governed by market forces and the principles of market place. Time is not far off when the Foreign Universities will set up their campuses on Indian Soil and admit Indian Students to their institutions. The department of commerce should gear itself up to a face stiff competition in offering top quality education by diversifying restructuring the courses, meeting the expectations of all stakeholders, introducing choice - based cafeteria model credit system as advocated by the UGC. In this connection we look up for more skills oriented certificate courses, a computer lab and facilities for E-learningfor B.Com., students.
