Abstract

Aparna Raj*

India's higher education system is at the threshold of transformative growth as the nation approaches 2047, marking its centennial of independence. Rooted in a legacy of ancient learning centers like Nalanda and Takshashila, higher education in India has evolved into a critical driver of social change, economic growth, and global competitiveness. This study examines the changing landscape of higher education in India through the lens of Vision 2047, analyzing historical milestones, current trends, and future aspirations. Key issues addressed include the necessity for global competitiveness, workforce readiness in a rapidly evolving job market, equitable access to quality education, and the integration of technological advancements in pedagogy and administration. Vision 2047 emphasizes student-centric learning, faculty development, curriculum innovation, quality assurance, and inclusivity. Additionally, the study explores the pivotal role of technology, particularly the rise of e-learning and digitalization, alongside the need for robust research, innovation, and international collaboration to enhance India's standing in the global knowledge economy. The implications of these transformations extend beyond academia, influencing socio-economic development, national identity, and policymaking. The study highlights critical challenges such as regional disparities, faculty shortages, and the need for updated accreditation systems while proposing solutions to address them effectively. It calls for a collaborative effort among policymakers, educators, and stakeholders to realize a higher education ecosystem that empowers individuals, drives innovation, and secures India’s position as a global knowledge leader. By exploring historical progress, current achievements, and forward-looking strategies, this research underscores the integral role of higher education in shaping India's future and aligning its aspirations with global standards of excellence.
