Students should be able to address and find solutions to problems that are closely related to people\u2019s lives such as agriculture, industry, health and environment. Teachers, on the other hand, should serve as inspiration for the students,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Radical changes will be implemented at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels in the first phase of the initiative. The curriculum has been designed to bridge the skill gap between employment and education sectors. Students enrolled in a four-year undergraduate course can enter the workforce after three years. Those interested in research can continue to the fourth year. Those studying for four years will receive support for research and internships.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">She added that while some universities have agreed to commence some courses under the new system this year itself, it will be fully implemented by next year only.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Vice-Chancellor of Mahatma Gandhi University (MGU) Prof.Dr C.T.
