Universities in South reach Consensus

Hyderabad: Considering the worth of networking the buzzword of the industry, the universities in southern states have reached a consensus on the need for collaborative projects amongst them apart from giving a push to research by establishing university-industry interfaces.

This was one of the fallout of the recently concluded South Zone Vice-Chancellors’ conference here apart from the resolution adopted to get ‘complete’ autonomy from regulating agencies.

Several Vice-Chancellors’ have voiced their concerns, particularly the tight string budget available for research, social sciences in particular. The collaboration will necessarily mean focus on sharing generic resources like library, research material and human resource with a contextual orientation for integration, problem solving, training learning and strengthening of capabilities.
