Top central varsities to form 'Ivy League'
TNN, Mar 14, 2010, 04.29am IST

HYDERABAD: An Ivy League similar to the ones in countries like US and Germany comprising topmost universities of the country will be formed within two years, announced Kapil Sibal, Union human resource development minister here on Saturday.

A committee to devise guidelines to identify these universities was formed on Saturday during the meeting of vice chancellors of pre-existing central universities, the minister announced. Out of the 22 central universities, VCs of 21 attended the meeting held on University of Hyderabad’s (UoH) campus.

The committee comprises vice chancellors of UoH, Delhi University (DU) and Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) among others.

Addressing the media after the VCs’ meet, Sibal said the universities in the Ivy League will be given complete autonomy without any government control in developing the staff, faculty, students and research and development. The minister also selected seven VCs to form a core committee to oversee the activities of all central universities in the country. “The core committee will be in charge of making recommendations regarding development and funding of all central universities,” he said.

Sibal said that central universities will be allowed to decide on their faculty and staff strength from the coming academic year. “Based on their budgetary allocations, the universities will be allowed to decide the number of faculty positions they need,” he said.

He also said that credit transfer system will be in place from the coming academic year so that the students from one university will be allowed to attend the courses of other universities.
