Kataria also hailed the university’s impressive rise in national and international rankings.
Talking about the significance of research under the NEP 2020, he asked the faculty members to intensify their efforts in transforming Tezpur University into a centre of excellence in contemporary research. NEP 2020, a transformative initiative in the country’s education system, necessitates rigorous implementation and monitoring at the university level to align with its vision. Therefore, Tezpur University should draft an agenda for the other educational institutions to roll out NEP in their management and curriculum.
Furthermore, advocating for a holistic educational environment, the Governor proposed initiating a teacher exchange programme with premier universities. Such collaborations, he asserted, would foster comprehensive changes and facilitate the adoption of best practices for superior educational outcomes.
