    Employment market more competitive.

    Students will need to be confident that their

    investment in higher education, and theassociated debt, will be of benefit to them and

    they may be influenced in their choice of

    institution and subject by the career prospects

    development of these key skills is well

    embedded in most courses, students

    often fail to value them or to relate them toan employment context. New initiatives

    place increased emphasis on encouraging

    students to relate these essential skills to

    their future employment2.

    Academics can help students to do this by

    embedding skills development activities

    that are clearly employment orientated. Work placements are a valuable way of

    helping students to develop work related

    skills and are highly regarded by potential

    employers.

    Therefore, the provision of department-

    based activities designed to develop

    employability skills and career awarenesscan be justified for all students.

    An Integrated Model for Academia-

    Industry InterfaceAcademia-industry relationship is not like that oftechnology donator-acceptor, but is of interactive and collaborative nature,acknowledging and ensuring mutual respect for

    each others role and contributions with an eyeto attaining the true purpose of suchrelationships, namely,

    1. bringing about research-outcome

    2. synergy. Indeed, academia-industry interactionsare a system that requires active andcollaborative participations of all thestakeholders.

    The recurring demands of skilled and specialisedmanpower from the industrial sector are not being metas a large section of graduates lack the necessary

    critical thinking and analytical skills required by the

    industry.

    Nowadays, a vast majority of higher education plannersand

    academics, throughout the globe, has been trying to link

    universities and other research institutions withindustries.

    Interdependence between academia and

    industry should be intensified to fulfil

    necessity for sustenance and innovation in

    their own domains.

    Academia-industry interface can be set up

    at diverse levels with different degrees

    spanning from mere consultations or visitsto meticulous researches.

    RESOURCES AND POTENTIALITY OF

    STAKEHOLDERS

    To make academia-industry interface a

    grand success, all the stakeholders-

    academic institutions, industry, and

    government should collaborate and

    interact with their own resources and

    potentiality, as it can be a win-win

    partnership.

    Government

    government should have some kind of

    industrial policy, regulating industrial

    placement, industrial pollution, industrial

    labour, and financing.

    Academia

    Academia is also in a position of offering a

    neutral environment to bring culturally and

    ethnically diverse people together.

    Moreover, academia has the capability to

    explore concepts which are too dodgy for

    business.

    Industry

    There are four main industrial economic

    sectors:

    the primary sector, the secondary sector,

    the tertiary

    the quaternary sector,

  • 8/3/2019 Students Employ Ability

    16/24

    Industry can also provide the basis of the

    problems and opportunities for application

    of university borne new technology or

    innovations that can be the prime focus of

    academia-industry collaborations.

    BARRIERS OF INTERACTION

    Despite the fact that the principle of

    academia-industry interface has been

    adopted by concerned agencies in the

    past decade or more, its full potential is far

    from being utilised due to the basic

    'attitudinal differences' and perception of

    technology development among thestakeholders.

    From Government

    Government is often too sluggish and

    generally not flexible enough when dealing

    with academia-industry collaboration as it

    is often not entrepreneurial by nature and

    troubled by monster bureaucracies

  • 8/3/2019 Students Employ Ability

    From Academia

    Academicians have widespread apathy towards appliedresearch and they are reluctant to leave the comfortzone of pure teaching.

    Academia is largely unaware of the real industrial and

    national needs and unable to market its strengths toindustry adequately.

    lack of appropriate incentive to faculty and specializedtechnical infrastructure (R&D Lab.), absence of properrecognition for practising faculty as compared with pureacademics worshipper, bureaucratic hiccups in utilisationof consultancy funds, absence of exclusive university-industry interaction cell in campus, etc.

    From Industry

    Industry, by nature, is always interested intargeted development.

    industry's desired time frames are instant,and investment is guided by efforts thatyield result-oriented solutions.

    The costing frames are typically directed

    by reluctance to invest in its internal R&Dwhich has either long term or unclearoutput.

    students and most importantly access to

    large number of companies for campus

    A student can become 100% employable only if the passion for the field hehas chosen has a chromosome level impact. For that, each and everystudent has to really understand what he must achieve in this particularbirth, to become a personality what he is really destined to. Since thestudents are NOT cultivated to be good thinkers, they do not have manychoices but just to go with the stream. I have interviewed many student with

    a question "What is your ambition?". More than 90% of the answers wouldbe "To get a good job, with good salary". If i again ask them "What is yourdefinition of a Good Job?" they blink. It is very obvious that most of thestudents do not have a clear vision. Their thoughts do not travel beyondgetting a job. If this is the condition of the present day students, what can acompany expect from them? How well will be their performance? Thecompanies still recruit in mass scale and try somehow to fit the students intothe job requirements. But "Attitude is the biggest factor to worry about".

    I wish to be a part of any initiative that is intended to enhance the overallstandard of the present day students.
