HED 2019 Editor's Note Greetings! The future of Higher Education in India is now a serious affair, as ministry of HRD will release a plan on development of higher education that the next government can follow. As we prepare our young generation for the global competition, need of the hour is to create an ecosystem in our higher education to expose them in global learning. Many of the educational institutions in India are charging at par with international fees structure. With this levelling, international colleges and universities are aggressively pitching themselves to attract Indian students. Offering them global exposure and education closer to industry requirement. Here in India, we have a long way to bridge the gap between academic and industry ready talent. Leaving aside the top institutes, average colleges across India urgently needs to revamp curriculum to educate students with modern syllabus and make them industry ready. HED Higher Education Directory 2019 remains number one directory in India on the higher education sector. It is the only consolidated information source of educational institutes, colleges & universities in the country. The directory is available both in Print as well as Digital Edition, making it the single largest read reference base publication. The directory is comprehensive and information is featured in an easy to refer style. It is widely read & consulted by students, parents, councillors and others seeking information on higher education in India. Wishing our aspiring students of higher education, all the very best!
