    How AI-assisted MBA projects of students can be evaluated (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When over 80% of MBA students submit project reports crafted with generative AI tools, business school teachers run into a dilemma: how to evaluate them objectively. Grading on structural polish alone no longer works. Awarding high marks to students – particularly when internal assessments constitute up to 60% of total weightage – must reflect application of concepts and critical thinking, skills AI cannot replicate. Premier business schools — including global institutions like Harvard, INSEAD,

    How India should recruit and train higher education faculty for the AI era (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Ask the toppers of any graduating class what they want to do next- university teaching rarely tops the list. The reason is simple: teaching is not perceived as a competitive, well-paid, or clearly defined career choice. This explains why classrooms across the country are increasingly staffed by overworked, ad hoc lecturers and guest faculty rather than our best youngsters.

    Walk into MIT, Stanford, Caltech, or Bell Labs, and you will find Indian-origin scientists driving quantum computing, mRNA therapeutics, agentic AI, and graphics processor design. They run corporate research divisions, win Nobel Prizes, and turn lab prototypes into trillion-dollar companies. Their schooling, their instincts, their work ethic—all of them trace back to India. (Sign up for THEdge, The Hindu’s weekly education newsletter.) So why does the same talent pool, often from the very same g

    India’s research paradox: Leading in published papers, but low on citations and patents to universities (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Between 2020 and 2025, Indian researchers published more research papers in Scopus-indexed journals — 1.6 million of them — than any other country in the world, ahead of the United States, the United Kingdom and China. Some private universities saw their gross paper output explode by over 760% in five years. Sign up for THEdge, The Hindu’s weekly education newsletter.) University patent filings multiplied four times, from 11,150 in 2020–21 to 45,776 in 2024–25, with a handful of priv

    How IITs and IISc are redefining medical education in India (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In March 2026, IIT Kharagpur—the oldest Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) that has been training thousands of minds to design bridges, cars, and computer chips for the last 75 years did something unprecedented. It formally applied to the National Medical Commission (NMC) to offer a postgraduate medical degree, the Doctor of Medicine (MD). (Sign up for THEdge, The Hindu’s weekly education newsletter.) It was not an isolated move. In August 2026, an alumnus of IIT-Kanpur pledged a massive ₹400
