Abstract

The Global challenges are capturing the interest and focus of Indian Higher Education institutions to update their systems and appraise the criteria of rankings. And it is difficult to justify the Indian Higher education institutions’ unique excellence parameters and its scalability to meet the criteria of rankings, because of its diversity in institutions’ size, nature of courses, disciplines, population, etc. Initially, the local challenges for Indian graduates which include appropriate employment, Career in further Studies, Entrepreneurship opportunities, etc. do not have a unique framework. The other focus area is lack of awareness and expertise in mezzanine technologies like Deep Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Renewable energy, Agricultural Technologies, Machine Learning, Data Science, Block Chain Technologies, Cyber Security, IoT, Virtual Reality, 3D Printing, Robotics, Design Thinking, etc. This paper has focused on these issues to collect the processes and designing a unique framework model to be adapted by higher educational institutions especially technical institutions in India. As the number of technical institutions is rising year on year, the demand is primarily dependent on quality and excellence outcomes. The proposed model is tested with current higher educational functions by implementing it in two higher educational institutions. The results are adaptable and applicable to any of technical higher education institution who are seeking excellence in processes.
