In India the age of classical industrialization is drawing to an end. The age in which territorial boundaries coincide with cultural and religious boundaries and are superimposed with hard economic frontiers is fading world. This is the age of the global economy and the international village. Boundaries once defined by geography, culture and history are fast crumbling. India is no exception nor is it immune to this change. In fact it has benefitted immensely and is rapidly emerging as a power on this new world stage. The changes are best represented by the explosive growth of the knowledge economy that knows no borders. This new age economy needs to be sustained by a highly educated, internationally competent and mobile workforce. Therefore education and training, today, has to be aligned and geared to meet these remarkable challenges. We as educators have the responsibility to educate and train the men and women to compete in an inter-linked and borderless world. We have to equip them with the knowledge, understanding and other tools that drive and fuel global technological change. Many, many Indian students continue to travel abroad to acquire quality higher education and a competitive edge on the international market. There are also many who are unable to make the journey due to resource limitations but still aspire to get an internationally recognised quality education here in India. G.D.
