We produce world's largest pool of doctors and engineers every year from this 8000+ universities.

 

[OrionHunter]

It's not the quantity, but the quality that counts. Our univs, needless to say, suck big time! We're not even in the first 200 univs in the world where quality education is concerned!

 

[MandarK]

Having more universities is not equivalent to having more educational institutions or having infrastructure to provide education to more students.

For eg. My university has only about 800 students.

I dont know who published this 8400 universities data...As far as my knowledge is concerned, there are only close to 600-700 universities in India.

We have a huge population, shouldnt be surprising if we also have a huge number of universities.

Our universities are only meant to produce doctors, engineers, etc to help with our country's aggregate supply. However we are very weak in our post graguate programs, also our universities lack R&D departments and essential infrastructure. We have quantity but lack quality.

Quality wise, we can only develop our university when our country becomes a middle income earning country.

May be they are counting the private universities also like Amity, Lovely etc.

So no stress on producing graduates in arts, pure science & commerce.

Is this a list of colleges or universities because in BD there are around 60 odd recognized private Unis along with 30 or 40 public ones , not more than that. So total number in BD's case can not be more than 100. I guess the site made a mistake and took account of colleges as well.
