Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Traditional education in India was largely non-professional in its compositions. It was after the advent of British rule; the modern professional education came into vogue in India. It was in the mid of the 19th century that Calcutta, Madras and Bombay Universities came into existence. After Independence, with the establishment of separate department for education both at centre and state level provided impetus to the proliferation of higher education. It is to be noted that till 1970’s and 80’s a small number of students would go for professional education. This situation has undergone a dramatic change in the last 3 decades or so. The preparedness of the government to increase funding for higher professional education, freedom to the private partners to run private professional colleges, ever increasing demand from the industry to accommodate more and more professional trained graduates. Opportunity made available by the globalization, increased awareness on the part of parents and students themselves of the advantages of professional education are some of the significant factors that have made professional education more popular in the recent decades. In the contemporary times the number of those who take professional education has significantly increased. It is very difficult to quote exact figures, however, different agencies and surveys put the figure of professional student in India between 22 to 37% of the total students who opt for higher education. It is quite reasonable to mention that the type of education that one receives emergences as one of the important factors that governs his attitude towards life and determines his choices to very great extent. 100s and 1000s of graduates and post graduates come out every year from colleges and Universities from India.
