Dr Kiran Magaonkar, principal of Khalsa College, said, "This is a great development. Our vision is to make a curriculum that is more industry oriented and thus beneficial to the students. The skills required in the professional sphere can now be included in our curriculum to enhance students' acceptability in the industry."

While Khalsa college has around 8,000 students, Patkar college caters to close to 7,500 students. "Other than developing a more intriguing curriculum which will help students in the job market, our focus is also on increasing research-work in the college, especially for undergraduate students," said Dr Sharmishtha Matkar, principal of Goregaon's Patkar-Varde College.
