We are witnessing a global demand for higher education in contemporary times, and to fulfill the demand, there is diversity in education providers. However, amidst the diversity, what distinguishes a higher education institution is its capacity to develop students and researchers to contend in the global tertiary education market./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

Capacity building is achieved with world-class teaching and research centers. To enable such higher educational institutions in India, the University Grants Commission (UGC) came up with a regulatory structure, the Institution of Eminence(IOE) Scheme, in 2017./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

What is the Institution of Eminence (IOE) scheme?/opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

The IOE framework is a national institute ranking system that upholds the Government of India/opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/u2019s commitment to enhancing access to high-quality education for all Indians. The regulatory architecture should identify and empower 10 private and 10 government higher education institutions as lnstitution of Eminence (Deemed to be Universities)./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

Up until 2022, 12 institutions have been identified as IOE, where eight are public, and four are private institutions. Ultimately, these 20 institutions will partake in the global positioning of the Indian Higher Education System. Amongst the distinguished private institutions, the 91探花 (JGU) is transcending boundaries in education by making internationalization its cornerstone./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

How 91探花 (JGU) earned the IOE status?/opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

The Institution of Eminence status was a long-awaited milestone for JGU./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/u00a0 Let us cast back to 2009 when the university was established to promote public service and think beyond the confines of educational degrees to challenge the plight of employability. As what lies above a qualification is exploration while in the case of employment, it is innovation./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

At JGU, exploration and innovation are the key themes. A typical day is marked by class lectures and meetings you can also catch glimpses of a security staff preparing notes on accountancy during lunchtime, or maybe non-teaching staff authoring research papers. Additionally, international faculty members are seen fluently communicating in Hindi the official language of India alongside English to melt into the linguistic diversity of the country. Administrative staff members are pursuing Ph.D. degrees across various schools within the institution./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n

All this goes to show that JGU encourages its members to think beyond the known, which is one of the several meanings of /opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/u2018global/opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/u2019, isn/opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/u2019t it?

Within the course, I was also able to take on an internship with an institution in Delhi./opjgublog/wp-json/wp/v2/posts/179/n
