The VLM program focuses on senior and middle level management. So, its main aim is skill upgradation. In contrast, the proposed IIT KGP, ISIC, and IIMC program targets towards creating expertise in the area of Business Analytics. If the interfacing among the three participating institutions becomes smooth then the experiment may be replicated for building expertise in many other cross discipline areas. I think medical engineering & science as well as manufacturing can gain immensely from such cross discipline teaching standards. Unfortunately at the moment the experiments seem to be only restricted to business and management.R. K.

This is a progressive idea into the future and has to come true sooner or later but the sooner it is implemented the better it is.<br /><br />Another milestone in India's education system has been achieved. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal of RMLNLU asking to continue with the 20 year upper age limit for application to premier Law colleges UG programmes. From now on age is no bar for studying Law. Its high time now that IITJEE should be made without age limit and without a restrictions on no. of attempts. If age is no bar for Law education then age must be no bar in technical education.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00748138219985590869noreply@blogger.com
