UGC recommends 735 additional universities; actions that Orissa needs to take

Following is from a report in Economic Times.

To increase the enrolment rate in higher education, a UGC committee has suggested starting an additional 735 universities in the country during the 11th Plan ending 2012.

The UGC committee, comprising Prof Duraisami of Madras University and Prof Sudhansu Bhusan of National University of Education Planning and Administration, has said that more universities will be needed to increase gross enrolment rate — the percentage of youths in the age group of 18-24 years in higher education — to 15 per cent from the 10 per cent at present.

The committee, set up to suggest reforms on the affiliation system and monitoring of education in 11th plan, has worked out a formula of 20,000 students per university to achieve the target. As per this criteria, the requirement would be 735 universities in the country by 2012, the report said.

"We will study the report and make a final suggestion to the state governments for starting the new varsities," UGC Chairman Prof Sukhadeo Thorat said.

At present there are 388 universities in the country. The committee’s report assumes significance in view of the estimation of National Knowledge Commission last year, when it said that at least 1,500 universities are needed to make India a knowledge society.

The enrolment ratio in higher education is abysmal 10 per cent in India. It is less than eight per cent in states like Assam, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Mizoram, Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Orissa, Tamil Nadu, Punjab and Uttarakhand.

Orissa’s population is 36,706,920, while India’s population is 1,129,866,154. So Orissa’s population is 3.24% of India’s population. So if India’s universities need to increase to a total of 388+735 = 1123. Then Orissa’s share should be 3.24% of that, which is 36.4. Considering Orissa at less than 8% is behind the national average of 10% in terms of enrolment ratio, Orissa will need to have at least 45.5, or say 46 universities. (This is based on using the 8% number for Orissa. It is actually a little over 6 for Orissa. So another 10 may be needed. But for the 11th plan lets stick with the number 46.)

• The exisiting universities in Orissa are (13): Utkal, Sambalpur, Berhampur, NOU, FMU, OUAT, KIIT, SOS, Culture U, Ravenshaw, Sri Jagannath, NIT RKL, BPUT.
• The new universities that are under construction are (8): WCCU, KBK Central, Sri Sri U, Vedanta U, ICFAI, Jagadguru, National Law U, Orissa Open University
• Some institutes that are operating or under construction and that could become universities are (4): IIIT Bhubaneswar, IIT Bhubaneswar, NISER Bhubaneswar, AIIMS Bhubaneswar
• Some institutes that may be opened and become universities are (3) : IIIT Berhampur, BITS, NID
• Some colleges that have applied for deemed university status are (8): Krupajal, CEB, ASBM, Gunupur, Koustuv, Hi-Tech, CV Raman, UCE/OIT.
• So the state needs to make at least 10 more universities.
  • One should be made in each of the undivided 13 districts which do not have a university yet. The 13 undivided districts are: Puri, Cuttack, Sundargarh, Baleswar, Sambalpur, Bolangir, Kalahandi, Koraput, Phulbani, Dhenkanal, Kendujhar, Ganjam and Mayurbhanj. Among them the five districts of Balangir, Kalahandi (Bhawanipatna), Phulbani, Dhenkanal (Angul) and Kendujhar do not have a university nor any new one has yet been announced. So the state should establish 5 universities, one each in each of these undivided districts.
  • CET Bhubaneswar should be made to a university.
  • A comprehensive university should be established in Rourkela.
  • A Bhubaneswar-Cuttack metropolitan university consisting of all government colleges in the Bhubaneswar and Cuttack area should be made.
  • Berhampur medical college should be made to a unitary health university.
  • A health university encompassing all of Orissa, with possible head quarters in Naraj should be made.
• During the 12th and 13th plan at least the undivided districts which do not have two universities should get their second one (8): Those would be Baleswar (Bhadrakh), Balangir (Titlagarh), Kalahandi (Nabarangpur), Koraput (Malkangiri), Phulbani (Boudha), Dhenkanal, Kendujhar (Joda) and Mayurbhanj (Bangiriposi).
  • In addition universities may be established in major population centers without an university. These places include (5): Rayagada, Kalinganagar, Paradeep, Parlakhemundi, Jharsuguda,
  • And in districts which do not yet have a university (5): Bargarh, Deogarh, Kendrapada, Nayagarh, Nuapada, Sonepur.

If someone thinks that the above is too many, then they should compare the number of universities in California, whose population,at 36,553,215, is around the same as that of Orissa. However, Orissa’s area at 155,707 sq km is less than 40% of California’s area of 410,000 sq km.

Andhra Pradesh to have one university in each district: Orissa should have one in each of its undivided districts

Various news reports mention that Andhra Pradesh will be having 6 six new universities so that each of its districts have a university. They have budgeted 16 crores for that.

Orissa should follow this lead and have one university in each of its undivided districts.  The undivided 13 districts of Orissa were: Puri, Cuttack, Sundargarh, Baleswar, Sambalpur, Bolangir, Kalahandi, Koraput, Phulbani, Dhenkanal, Kendujhar, Ganjam and Mayurbhanj. Among those the six districts Bolangir, Kalahandi, Koraput, Phulbani, Dhenkanal and Kendujhar do not have a university. The Orissa government should take advantage of the central government’s offer and set up a university in each of these districts.

IIMC will be upgraded as an International Media University

PIB press releases the following.

Minister of Information & Broadcasting, Shri P. R. Dasmunsi has said that ‘I am very happy to announce that we have decided to upgrade the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC) as an International Media University. The Planning Commission has already approved the proposal and my Ministry is working to make this Institute into a world class media education, training and research University, by an Act of Parliament. This will fulfill the growing demand of the media industry to provide more trained and qualified professionals. He was delivering the convocation address at IIMC here today.’

NOTE: I am not sure about fate of IIMC Dhenkanal. In another development, Indira Gandhi National Tribal University has advertised for Vice-Chancellor post.

Orissa JEE 2008 (BPUT JEE 2008) result out! Where can I get a seat with my rank?

Most of you already know your result. But just in case the result is available at http://www.jeeorissa.com/jee_result.asp.

Now you will be wondering what you can get with your ranks. Its very hard to answer that question. You can get some idea from last years counseling data. (See https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1157 for a ranking of Orissa engineering colleges.)

I had compiled the following last year for the GE category. (See https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/508) That may give you some idea. But there are no guarantees and I do not have information on the other categories.

This is a continuation of our earlier effort. Following are the branches and colleges that no longer have any GE seats. On the side we mention in which counseling the seats got filled up and what are left. [Please note that when we mention that a certain branch got filled up in the range, say, 800-1200 that means it got filled in some rank in between that. It could have been filled up in rank 801 or rank 1200. I just don’t have the data to make that distinction.]

Ranking of engineering colleges in Orissa

(Update on June 17 2008:  For guidance on what you can get with your Orissa JEE rank in 2008, please see https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1185 I do not have more information than that.)

The following is from our earlier post titled: "2007 ranking of Orissa Engineering colleges that participated in BPUT counseling – solely based on student preferences."

Continuing with our methodology, and solely based on the student preferences in the GE (general) category,  we develop a ranking below. Our methodology is we compare when the various branches of the colleges get finished.  For example below when we write CET (8, 8, 12, 12, 16) it means that two of the CET branches were all finished in the GE category by the ranks 800, two by 1200 and one by 1600. We will use the first three numbers unless it becomes necessary to go beyond that.

• 1. UCE Burla (8,8,12,12,16)
• 1. CET Bhubaneswar  (8,8,12,12,16)
• 2. ITER Bhubaneswar (16,16,16)
• 3. Silicon Bhubaneswar (16, 20, 20)
• 4. CV Raman Bhubaneswar (20,24,28)
• 5. NIST Berhampur (24, 24, 28)
• 6. GITA  Bhubaneswar(28,28,32)
• 7. Orissa Eng College Bhubaneswar (28, 28, 36)
• 7. IGIT Sarang (20,28,45)
• 8. College of Eng Bhubaneswar (36,36,41)
• 9. Gandhi Eng College Bhubaneswar (36,41,45)
• 10. Krupajala Bhubaneswar (45,45,45)
• 10. Trident Bhuabneswar (41, 45, 50)
• 11. East Bhubaneswar (45,55,66)
• 11. Gandhi Inst for Tech Bhubaneswar (50,50,60)
• 11. GIET Gunupur (50,50,60)
• 12. Orissa school of mining eng Keonjhar (45, 55, 117)
• 13. NMIET Bhubaneswar (66, 72, 78)
• 14. DRIEMS Dhenkanala(72,72,100)
• 15. Konark Bhubaneswar (78, 78, 117)
• 15. Koustuva Bhubaneswar (78, 100, 100)
• 15. Mahavir Bhubaneswar (78, 84, 100)
• 15. Synergy Dhenkanal (78, 84, 100)
• 16. Nalanda Bhubaneswar (84, 84, 100)
• 17. Rajdhani Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 100)
• 18. Roland Berhampur (84,100, 108)
• 19. Techno Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 117)
• 19. Padmanav Rourkela (100,100,100)
• 20. Ajay Binay Cuttack (100,100,117)
• 21. Ghanashyam Hemalata  Puri(100,108,136)
• 22. Jagannath Cuttack (108,117,147)
• 22. Bhadrakh (117,117, 136)
• 23. JITM Parlakhemundi (117,126,147)
• 24. Inst of Adv Rayagada (117,136,159)
• 24. Sanjay Memorial Berhampur (117,147,159)
• 24. Purushottam Rourkela (126,126,136)
• 26. Balasore (136,136,159)
• 27. Seemanta Mayurbhanj (159, 159, 186)
• 28. Padmashree Baragarh (172,172,200)
• 29. Majighariani Rayagada (172,200,200)
• 30. Satyasai Balasore (159, 172, 999)
• 31. Samanta Chandra Sekhar Koraput (186,999,999)
• 32. Gopal Krishna Jeypore (999,999,999)

The colleges that are missing from the above are NIT Rourkela, and KIIT. I consider NIT Rourkela to currently be the best in Orissa. I would slot KIIT around ITER and Silicon.

Outlook for 2008-2009:

Now that ITER’s parent organization Siksha O Anusandhan has become a deemed university, ITER may opt out of Orissa JEE and/or 2008 BPUT counseling.

In 2008 and 2009 there would be several new colleges.

Sports hostels in Orissa

The following is from http://orissagov.nic.in/sports&youthservices/dsys/hostels.htm.

The Sports Hostel Scheme was launched in our State in the year 1985 with the objective to enable the talented young Sports persons to undergo systematic coaching for a prolonged period. As per the scheme, the young talented boys and girls in the age group of 10-14 yrs. are selected from the grass-root level through a rigorous process of tests which include anthropometrics as well as series of battery of tests.  After determining their motor capabilities, they are finally selected on the basis of their performance in specific skill tests.  The Sports Hostel scheme has paid rich dividends as large number of Sports Hostel products have proved their worth in National and International tournaments. At present there are 14 Sports Hostels and 3 Centers of Excellence functioning in the State.

 NON-PLAN SECTOR

TRIBAL AREA SUB-PLAN SECTOR

 Government in Sports & Y.S Department bears the expenditure towards the stipend of the inmates @ Rs. 2250/- per head per month, Sports kits and uniforms, medicine, bedding  materials, admission fees of Schools and T.A/D.A etc. for attending different National/International tournaments and coaching camp wherever necessary. Scientific coaching in systematic manner by experienced coaches are provided to these inmates during their stay in the hostels.

CENTRE OF EXCELLENCE

Government in Sports Department have implemented the scheme of  Centre of  Excellence for  providing intensive coaching to Sports persons between the age group of 15-18 years who are proficient in the concerned field.  In order to be eligible for admission to the Centre of Excellence a candidate must have secured first to sixth position in any recognized National Championship either in Individual or Team events. During their stay in the Centre the inmates enjoy the same facilities availed by their sports Hostels counterparts. The scheme has proved it’s worth as many of the inmates of Centers of Excellence have laurels for the State.

2007 ranking of Orissa Engineering colleges that participated in BPUT counseling – solely based on student preferences

((Update on June 17 2008:  For guidance on what you can get with your Orissa JEE rank in 2008, please see https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1185 I do not have more information than that.)

Continuing with our methodology, and solely based on the student preferences in the GE (general) category,  we develop a ranking below. Our methodology is we compare when the various branches of the colleges get finished.  For example below when we write CET (8, 8, 12, 12, 16) it means that two of the CET branches were all finished in the GE category by the ranks 800, two by 1200 and one by 1600. We will use the first three numbers unless it becomes necessary to go beyond that.

• 1. UCE Burla (8,8,12,12,16)
• 1. CET Bhubaneswar  (8,8,12,12,16)
• 2. ITER Bhubaneswar (16,16,16)
• 3. Silicon Bhubaneswar (16, 20, 20)
• 4. CV Raman Bhubaneswar (20,24,28)
• 5. NIST Berhampur (24, 24, 28)
• 6. GITA  Bhubaneswar(28,28,32)
• 7. Orissa Eng College Bhubaneswar (28, 28, 36)
• 7. IGIT Sarang (20,28,45)
• 8. College of Eng Bhubaneswar (36,36,41)
• 9. Gandhi Eng College Bhubaneswar (36,41,45)
• 10. Krupajala Bhubaneswar (45,45,45)
• 10. Trident Bhuabneswar (41, 45, 50)
• 11. East Bhubaneswar (45,55,66)
• 11. Gandhi Inst for Tech Bhubaneswar (50,50,60)
• 11. GIET Gunupur (50,50,60)
• 12. Orissa school of mining eng Keonjhar (45, 55, 117)
• 13. NMIET Bhubaneswar (66, 72, 78)
• 14. DRIEMS Dhenkanala(72,72,100)
• 15. Konark Bhubaneswar (78, 78, 117)
• 15. Koustuva Bhubaneswar (78, 100, 100)
• 15. Mahavir Bhubaneswar (78, 84, 100)
• 15. Synergy Dhenkanal (78, 84, 100)
• 16. Nalanda Bhubaneswar (84, 84, 100)
• 17. Rajdhani Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 100)
• 18. Roland Berhampur (84,100, 108)
• 19. Techno Bhubaneswar (84, 100, 117)
• 19. Padmanav Rourkela (100,100,100)
• 20. Ajay Binay Cuttack (100,100,117)
• 21. Ghanashyam Hemalata  Puri(100,108,136)
• 22. Jagannath Cuttack (108,117,147)
• 22. Bhadrakh (117,117, 136)
• 23. JITM Parlakhemundi (117,126,147)
• 24. Inst of Adv Rayagada (117,136,159)
• 24. Sanjay Memorial Berhampur (117,147,159)
• 24. Purushottam Rourkela (126,126,136)
• 26. Balasore (136,136,159)
• 27. Seemanta Mayurbhanj (159, 159, 186)
• 28. Padmashree Baragarh (172,172,200)
• 29. Majighariani Rayagada (172,200,200)
• 30. Satyasai Balasore (159, 172, 999)
• 31. Samanta Chandra Sekhar Koraput (186,999,999)
• 32. Gopal Krishna Jeypore (999,999,999)

The colleges that are missing from the above are NIT Rourkela, and KIIT. I consider NIT Rourkela to currently be the best in Orissa. I would slot KIIT around ITER and Silicon.

Outlook for 2008-2009:

Now that ITER’s parent organization Siksha O Anusandhan has become a deemed university, ITER may opt out of Orissa JEE and/or 2008 BPUT counseling.

In 2008 and 2009 there would be several new colleges. Among them three of them, if they get their approvals in time, are going to make a splash because of the people involved in the making of those colleges. They are:

1. Bhubaneswar Institute of Technology: This College will be located at or adjacent to Infocity II. Its founders include three Orissa origin professors in the US (Prof. Rabi Mohapatra, Prof. Laxmi Bhuyan, Prof. Prashant Mohapatra) and high level people in WIPRO (in India) and Microsoft (USA). Watch out for this college. It should leap to the top3-5 in Orissa within a year or two of its starting.
2. Temple City Institute of Technology: This college is being founded by one of the founders of KIIT and a US software professional who also gave some initial funding to KIIT. This college is also supported by at least one North America based professor (not me). Again based on the track record of the founders this should become a good college.
3. Indus College of Engineering:  We discussed this college earlier. This college is being established by a trust led by Dr. Ravi Reddy. Dr. Reddy is a B.Tech from IIT Kharagpur and a Ph.D from University of Houston, USA. He was one of the main person at NIST, Berhampur. Based on this information, I think this will also become a good  engineering college.
4. ASBM institute of Technology: Newsreports mention that ASBM plans to establish an engineering college in 2008. Based on ASBM’s track record this should become a good engineering college too.

Final summary of GE seat situation at the end of JEE counseling for general category

(Update on June 17 2008:  For guidance on what you can get with your Orissa JEE rank in 2008, please see https://www.orissalinks.com/archives/1185 I do not have more information than that.)

This is a continuation of our earlier effort. Following are the branches and colleges that no longer have any GE seats. On the side we mention in which counseling the seats got filled up and what are left. [Please note that when we mention that a certain branch got filled up in the range, say, 800-1200 that means it got filled in some rank in between that. It could have been filled up in rank 801 or rank 1200. I just don’t have the data to make that distinction.]

Preliminary Ranking of Orissa Engineering Colleges that participate in BPUT JEE counseling – solely based on student preferences

Solely based on the student preferences so far we develop a ranking below. Our methodology is we compare when the various branches of the colleges get finished.  For example below when we write CET (8, 8, 12, 12, 16) it means that two of CET branches were all finished in the GE category by the ranks 800, two by 1200 and one by 1600. We will use the first three numbers unless it becomes necessary to go beyond that.

• 1. UCE Burla (8,8,12,12,16)
• 1. CET Bhubaneswar  (8,8,12,12,16)
• 2. ITER Bhubaneswar (16,16,16)
• 3. Silicon Bhubaneswar (16, 20, 20)
