the state is home to 28 Engineering colleges,
61 polytechnics, 26 management study institutions,
30 colleges for computer application courses
as well as 219 Industrial Training Institutes and
other vocational institutes.
In
the coming years , education, research and
development activities would be of paramount
importance and with the onset of WTO regime
the new adage for industries would be -
"Innovate or Perish". The industries thus
would be encouraged to exploit the vast
reservoir of experience and knowledge of
universities to gain a cutting edge in terms
of 'quality' in the market getting increasingly
characterised by commotidization. The Industry
on their part would assist the educational
institutions in developing quality infrastructure
and by sensitizing the universities with
their manpower requirements.
A
sound education system is of quintessence
when the question is of strengthening the
social fabric of a region. The state of
Gujarat has always believed in these principles
and has encouraged setting up of quality
educational institutions across the state.
The industrial development in the region
provides vast potential for setting of new
educational institutes in the areas of Marine
engineering, Port management, Gems and Jewellery
design, Fishery and fish processing, Urban
planning, Disaster management and Biotechnology.
