| Abstract: |
The Doctoral Program of any country is the central pillar of higher education. The conspicuous absence of a well-thought-out doctoral program in India's national research policy has resulted in asymmetries in policies and practices related to research and development. The history of doctoral research in India presents a unique trajectory with a mixed influence of the colonial past and isolated efforts of genuine intellectuals who have thrived in an environment of deep motivation and passion that defined their research pursuits. India will have to ask more profound questions regarding the quality of doctoral education and the nature of students being produced/created. How does one enhance quality, and what is the role of faculty, students, and institutions? What is the role of doctoral research in influencing learning, pedagogic practices, and curriculum in preparing a citizenry to influence growth and development at the national and global levels? While reviewing global practices and policies, this chapter attempts to draw on best practices while also addressing the opportunities and challenges that reflect the realities of developing countries, particularly India. |
