The Indian Higher Education System’s NEP 2020: A Framework Change Towards Research, Innovation And Entrepreneurship

Abstract

With the goal of revolutionizing higher education in India, the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 of the Indian Higher Education System marks a significant change in educational philosophy. In order to foster an environment of inquiry, creativity, and enterprise among academics, the NEP 2020 lays out a comprehensive framework with an emphasis on research, innovation, and entrepreneurship. This study evaluates the NEP 2020’s research, innovation, and entrepreneurship provisions critically and assesses how they could affect the higher education sector. The article examines the logic for the NEP 2020’s concentration on these areas and assesses the benefits, drawbacks, possibilities, and difficulties connected with their implementation through a detailed examination of the research, policy analysis, and case studies. This paper offers useful perspectives for policymakers, educators, researchers, and other stakeholders who are trying to navigate the changing Indian higher education landscape and take advantage of the transformative potential of this sector for national development. It does this by offering insights into the NEP 2020’s objectives, strategies, and expected outcomes.
