Vidya Vistar Scheme
- India’s dream to be a global superpower in the coming decades depends primarily on enhancing the skills of its human resources to meet global demands and increasing innovations and start- ups to fuel the economy.
- The roles that the universities, colleges and other educational institutions have to play is crucial in this context. Alone, each University/institution will require investment of a considerable amount of its resources for these activities.
- However, being a developing country, it would be in the best interest to maximise the utilization of existing resources available with the Universities/ academic institutions by sharing the same, through academic collaboration and cooperation amongst them, for augmenting the human resources.
Objectives
Making available to the partner College or Department of fellow University –
- Expertise, knowledge and experience of the faculty members
- Resources in the library

Online Teaching Learning
- Opportunity to share with the students of each others’ institutions the academic expertise and intellectually stimulating lectures/talks/seminars/workshops/conferen- ces/webinars.
- In this way, the partner institutions will be able to share the best of the academic resources with each other, leading to intellectual growth of students of both the institutions.
