THEME OF THE SEMINAR
Quality is the back bone of any education system. It is said that quality of a nation is judged by the quality of its citizens. Quality of citizens directly depends on the system of education of the nation which in turn is determined by quality of teachers. Quality in higher education is the most urgent need as India moves towards becoming an educational hub. All levels of education need a strong vertical knit to ensure quality. Academic institutions opt for quality circles and quality efforts at institutional, national and international levels. In addition, various academic bodies like NAAC, MCI, AICTE, NCTE etc. aim at quality enhancement in higher education.
