Read the following passage along with the table and answer the given question below :-

What makes a university stand apart from the rest of universities? Is it the quality of students enrolled and faculty engaged in teaching, or the infrastructure? These certainly have a role to play as the university strives to gain excellence, but are not the primary driver. A close scrutiny of the table toppers in the INDIA TODAY-MDRA survey of India’s best universities reveals that they all have one thing in common-the constant endeavor to innovate and adapt to the growing needs of the local, provincial, national and global environment.

Indian universities don’t produce Nobel winners because our higher education institutes have lagged behind in the area of research. Of course, funds do play a role in promoting research, and Researchers agree that a socially relevant research project will always attract funds, either from government or private parties.

The meagre investment in research results in poor research output numbers and low quality of human workforce. According to the Economic Survey of India 2016-17, the number of researchers per 100,000 people was only 15 in India, compared to 111 in China, 423 in the US and 825 in Israel. As a direct consequence, India is a laggard in terms of the number of patents or peer reviewed publications. The 2017 report of World Intellectual Property Organization(WIPO), revealed that where China and

 

 

Japan had filed 1,381,594 and 318,479 patents, respectively, India had filed only 46,582. It’s no denying the fact that two Chinese universities find place among the top 20 global universities in the 2019 QS World University rankings.

Indian universities, primarily the professional ones, also face the criticism that they are too focused on B churning out job-ready students. Yet, Employability leaves a lot to be desired A 2019 report by Aspiring Minds, A job skills assessment company, says that over 80 per cent of our engineers are produced in Indian Universities whereas many Indian Universities literates are found jobless because of low correlation between the curriculum taught and practical tasks to be performed during job tenure.
