&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
For the first time in Jharkhand, World Bank officials from Washington DC will hold daylong deliberations with a select group of academics, bureaucrats and stakeholders here to thrash out a roadmap for improving the standard of higher education in the state.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The quality of higher education is not up to the mark at most educational institutions. There are many challenges and opportunities in the sector in a country where there is huge need for skilled manpower. Tomorrow, we will be discussing the need for reforms and the ways to bring them about,&amp;rdquo; World Bank&amp;rsquo;s senior education economist Andreas Blom told The Telegraph.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The high-profile visit is aimed at making liberal learning the bedrock of Jharkhand&amp;rsquo;s future, a realisation that has dawned on the state higher education department, which has taken the initiative to bring about qualitative change in the state&amp;rsquo;s academic environment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blom, along with Venkatesh Kumar, a consultant for the World Bank who doubles up as professor at Mumbai-based Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), reached Ranchi today and held preliminary discussions with principal secretary, state HRD department, Mridula Sinha.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the highlights of tomorrow&amp;rsquo;s brainstorming will be online deliberations with Sam Pitroda, former chairman of National Knowledge Commission and currently adviser to the Prime Minister on public information, infrastructure and innovation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sinha said the idea was also to introduce a change in the mindset of stakeholders in the higher education sector. The HRD department also hopes to arrest brain drain through implementation of quality education initiatives in association with the international organisation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;World Bank has been roped in to bring about catalytic changes and we aim to take things to a logical conclusion,&amp;rdquo; the HRD principal secretary said, adding that things were at a nascent stage. Ultimately, a blueprint would be developed in association with World Bank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blom pointed out that their focus would be to improve higher education through which desired economic and social development could be achieved. &amp;ldquo;We will help in introducing reforms in faculty, infrastructure and the overall university system so as to prepare best human talent,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently, World Bank-sponsored Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQUIP) is underway at several tech cradles, including BIT-Mesra, BIT-Sindri and Government Polytechnics at Ranchi and Dumka. Phase I and Phase II of the ambitious scheme has been undertaken at these institutions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides these World Bank-aided schools, a bunch of other quality cradles &amp;mdash; Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi, National University for Study and Research in Law (NUSRL) and Central University of Jharkhand (CUJ) &amp;mdash; have of late buoyed higher education in the state.

$disp = &#039;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;For the first time in Jharkhand, World Bank officials from Washington DC will hold daylong deliberations with a select group of academics, bureaucrats and stakeholders here to thrash out a roadmap for improving the standard of higher education in the state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;ldquo;The quality of higher education is not up to the mark at most educational institutions. There are many challenges and opportunities in the sector in a country where there is huge need for skilled manpower. Tomorrow, we will be discussing the need for reforms and the ways to bring them about,&amp;rdquo; World Bank&amp;rsquo;s senior education economist Andreas Blom told The Telegraph.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The high-profile visit is aimed at making liberal learning the bedrock of Jharkhand&amp;rsquo;s future, a realisation that has dawned on the state higher education department, which has taken the initiative to bring about qualitative change in the state&amp;rsquo;s academic environment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blom, along with Venkatesh Kumar, a consultant for the World Bank who doubles up as professor at Mumbai-based Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), reached Ranchi today and held preliminary discussions with principal secretary, state HRD department, Mridula Sinha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the highlights of tomorrow&amp;rsquo;s brainstorming will be online deliberations with Sam Pitroda, former chairman of National Knowledge Commission and currently adviser to the Prime Minister on public information, infrastructure and innovation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sinha said the idea was also to introduce a change in the mindset of stakeholders in the higher education sector. The HRD department also hopes to arrest brain drain through implementation of quality education initiatives in association with the international organisation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;ldquo;World Bank has been roped in to bring about catalytic changes and we aim to take things to a logical conclusion,&amp;rdquo; the HRD principal secretary said, adding that things were at a nascent stage. Ultimately, a blueprint would be developed in association with World Bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blom pointed out that their focus would be to improve higher education through which desired economic and social development could be achieved. &amp;ldquo;We will help in introducing reforms in faculty, infrastructure and the overall university system so as to prepare best human talent,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently, World Bank-sponsored Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQUIP) is underway at several tech cradles, including BIT-Mesra, BIT-Sindri and Government Polytechnics at Ranchi and Dumka. Phase I and Phase II of the ambitious scheme has been undertaken at these institutions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Besides these World Bank-aided schools, a bunch of other quality cradles &amp;mdash; Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi, National University for Study and Research in Law (NUSRL) and Central University of Jharkhand (CUJ) &amp;mdash; have of late buoyed higher education in the state.&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

For the first time in Jharkhand, World Bank officials from Washington DC will hold daylong deliberations with a select group of academics, bureaucrats and stakeholders here to thrash out a roadmap for improving the standard of higher education in the state.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
One of the highlights of tomorrow&amp;rsquo;s brainstorming will be online deliberations with Sam Pitroda, former chairman of National Knowledge Commission and currently adviser to the Prime Minister on public information, infrastructure and innovation.&lt;br /&gt;

	&#039;description&#039; =&gt; &#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
For the first time in Jharkhand, World Bank officials from Washington DC will hold daylong deliberations with a select group of academics, bureaucrats and stakeholders here to thrash out a roadmap for improving the standard of higher education in the state.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The quality of higher education is not up to the mark at most educational institutions. There are many challenges and opportunities in the sector in a country where there is huge need for skilled manpower. Tomorrow, we will be discussing the need for reforms and the ways to bring them about,&amp;rdquo; World Bank&amp;rsquo;s senior education economist Andreas Blom told The Telegraph.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The high-profile visit is aimed at making liberal learning the bedrock of Jharkhand&amp;rsquo;s future, a realisation that has dawned on the state higher education department, which has taken the initiative to bring about qualitative change in the state&amp;rsquo;s academic environment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blom, along with Venkatesh Kumar, a consultant for the World Bank who doubles up as professor at Mumbai-based Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), reached Ranchi today and held preliminary discussions with principal secretary, state HRD department, Mridula Sinha.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the highlights of tomorrow&amp;rsquo;s brainstorming will be online deliberations with Sam Pitroda, former chairman of National Knowledge Commission and currently adviser to the Prime Minister on public information, infrastructure and innovation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sinha said the idea was also to introduce a change in the mindset of stakeholders in the higher education sector. The HRD department also hopes to arrest brain drain through implementation of quality education initiatives in association with the international organisation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;World Bank has been roped in to bring about catalytic changes and we aim to take things to a logical conclusion,&amp;rdquo; the HRD principal secretary said, adding that things were at a nascent stage. Ultimately, a blueprint would be developed in association with World Bank.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blom pointed out that their focus would be to improve higher education through which desired economic and social development could be achieved. &amp;ldquo;We will help in introducing reforms in faculty, infrastructure and the overall university system so as to prepare best human talent,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently, World Bank-sponsored Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQUIP) is underway at several tech cradles, including BIT-Mesra, BIT-Sindri and Government Polytechnics at Ranchi and Dumka. Phase I and Phase II of the ambitious scheme has been undertaken at these institutions.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides these World Bank-aided schools, a bunch of other quality cradles &amp;mdash; Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi, National University for Study and Research in Law (NUSRL) and Central University of Jharkhand (CUJ) &amp;mdash; have of late buoyed higher education in the state.

Sinha said the idea was also to introduce a change in the mindset of stakeholders in the higher education sector. The HRD department also hopes to arrest brain drain through implementation of quality education initiatives in association with the international organisation.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;World Bank has been roped in to bring about catalytic changes and we aim to take things to a logical conclusion,&rdquo; the HRD principal secretary said, adding that things were at a nascent stage. Ultimately, a blueprint would be developed in association with World Bank.<br />
<br />
Blom pointed out that their focus would be to improve higher education through which desired economic and social development could be achieved. &ldquo;We will help in introducing reforms in faculty, infrastructure and the overall university system so as to prepare best human talent,&rdquo; he said.<br />
<br />
Currently, World Bank-sponsored Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQUIP) is underway at several tech cradles, including BIT-Mesra, BIT-Sindri and Government Polytechnics at Ranchi and Dumka. Phase I and Phase II of the ambitious scheme has been undertaken at these institutions.<br />
<br />
Besides these World Bank-aided schools, a bunch of other quality cradles &mdash; Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi, National University for Study and Research in Law (NUSRL) and Central University of Jharkhand (CUJ) &mdash; have of late buoyed higher education in the state.

World Bank team to draft higher education blueprint by Amit Gupta

For the first time in Jharkhand, World Bank officials from Washington DC will hold daylong deliberations with a select group of academics, bureaucrats and stakeholders here to thrash out a roadmap for improving the standard of higher education in the state. “The quality of higher education is not up to the mark at most educational institutions. There are many challenges and opportunities in the sector in a country where there is huge need for skilled manpower. Tomorrow, we will be discussing the need for reforms and the ways to bring them about,” World Bank’s senior education economist Andreas Blom told The Telegraph. The high-profile visit is aimed at making liberal learning the bedrock of Jharkhand’s future, a realisation that has dawned on the state higher education department, which has taken the initiative to bring about qualitative change in the state’s academic environment. Blom, along with Venkatesh Kumar, a consultant for the World Bank who doubles up as professor at Mumbai-based Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), reached Ranchi today and held preliminary discussions with principal secretary, state HRD department, Mridula Sinha. One of the highlights of tomorrow’s brainstorming will be online deliberations with Sam Pitroda, former chairman of National Knowledge Commission and currently adviser to the Prime Minister on public information, infrastructure and innovation. Sinha said the idea was also to introduce a change in the mindset of stakeholders in the higher education sector. The HRD department also hopes to arrest brain drain through implementation of quality education initiatives in association with the international organisation. “World Bank has been roped in to bring about catalytic changes and we aim to take things to a logical conclusion,” the HRD principal secretary said, adding that things were at a nascent stage. Ultimately, a blueprint would be developed in association with World Bank. Blom pointed out that their focus would be to improve higher education through which desired economic and social development could be achieved. “We will help in introducing reforms in faculty, infrastructure and the overall university system so as to prepare best human talent,” he said. Currently, World Bank-sponsored Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQUIP) is underway at several tech cradles, including BIT-Mesra, BIT-Sindri and Government Polytechnics at Ranchi and Dumka. Phase I and Phase II of the ambitious scheme has been undertaken at these institutions. Besides these World Bank-aided schools, a bunch of other quality cradles — Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ranchi, National University for Study and Research in Law (NUSRL) and Central University of Jharkhand (CUJ) — have of late buoyed higher education in the state.
