State Higher Education Minister Debi Prasad Mishra on Saturday said that the Odisha Government has taken a lot of steps to bring reform in the higher education sector. Mishra stated this while attending a two-day conference on higher education organised by the Federation of Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) at New Delhi.
Mishra further said that the State Government has also prepared a vision document to this effect. During his Delhi visit, Misha held a discussion regarding the establishment of a Innovation University in the State. The Centre had agreed to set up a university in Orissa in 2008.
India's Human Resource Development Ministry plans to set up 14 "innovation universities" from 2010 to build "disciplinary focuses" and push research and development.
India has set a target of at least 30% of school leavers making it to college by 2020.
