Abstract

The new global scenario poses unprecedented challenges for the higher education system. The University Grants Commission has appropriately stated that a whole range of skills will be demanded from the Graduates of humanities, Social sciences, Natural sciences and Commerce as well as from the various professional disciplines such as Agriculture, Law, Management, Medicine and Engineering Responding to these emerging needs, the UGC stated: "The University has a crucial role to play in promoting social change. It must make an impact on the community if it is to retain its legitimacy and gain public support". Concepts of access, equity, relevance and quality can be operationalised only if the system is both effective and efficient. Hence, the management of higher education and the total networking of the system for effective management has become an important issue. The shift can occur only through a systemic approach to change as also the development of its human resource, and networking the system through Information and Communication Technology. All these factors will impel higher education to undergo vast changes in respect of objectives, contents and methods. It will have to bear momentous responsibilities for generating new vistas of knowledge and wisdom, bolder forms of courage and heroism, unprecedented arts of harmony and beauty, and unimaginable skills suited to developing technologies. It will also be required to set more exacting standards of excellence and perfection.
