Bengaluru, Sep 17: Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwara said Universities should become centres for creating students future instead of playing the role of being merely shops to distribute degrees.
He was speaking after inaugurating culture, sports, National Service Scheme, Youth Red Cross, Scouts and Guides of the Government First Grade College in Koratagere in Tumakuru District on Monday.
Dr Parameshwara regretted that the universities are just playing role of distributing degree certificates and lakhs of students came out these universities every year and had become jobless.
Education should always bring in changes in economic conditions, he suggested saying there is a need to change the present education system.
The Deputy Chief Minister said China was an example where students were being given job oriented education.
Although a majority of the students in China did not know English, they were in forefront in many aspects, he felt.
