Massification of the higher education sector in India is accompanied by the proliferation of providers, multiplicity of regulatory bodies, and diversification of study programs. The establishment of private universities in this century has contributed to the fast expansion and massification of the sector. The increasing diversity of institutions and students have raised questions about the quality in the delivery of services and transparency and integrity in the functioning of institutions. Complaints about malpractice and court cases on corrupt practices are not rare in higher education in India. Those indulging in malpractices believe that the rewards from them outweigh the risks since the regulatory bodies may not always be effective to detect corruption and apply sanctions to them.

In response to this situation, new quality assurance measures were launched in 1994. Since then, many institutions have come under closer scrutiny, with reviews of their student admissions, staff recruitment, and administrative practices. Further, measures have been established since then to check common corrupt academic practices such as producing fake qualification certificates, awarding degrees to undeserving candidates, seeking financial or sexual favors for grade, sale of degrees, plagiarism in publications, ghost writing in exams, contract writing of assignments and doctoral theses, false diplomas, and credentials by diploma mills. This chapter shows that the recently introduced mandatory accreditation arrangements have streamlined institutional practices and helped institutions to improve academic integrity and standards of behavior.

  About TISS

Tata Institute of Social Sciences has an 80-year-old history. Beginning in 1936 as a Graduate School of Social Work, it grew into an Institute of Social Sciences in 1944 and into a Deemed University funded by the UGC , teaching a wide variety of Social Science Courses in 1964. The Institute made a mark in the history of Social Work in India through pioneering efforts like publishing the Indian Journal of Social Work, which is the first Journal of Social Work in South Asia. TISS broadened its span to more specialized courses in the field of Social Work and Social Research and was awarded a score of 3.88 out of 4 (CGPA) and Grade A by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) on 31 st December 2009. Today it is known as one of the leading thought leaders in the Social Sciences, including areas of application of Technology in Social Contexts, Management and Governance. It has a wide range of International Collaborations, which keep it abreast of developments in each field of study at the international level.

TISS is particularly known for its Academic Excellence, its Prominent Alumni, and its relentless work for the promotion of sustainable, equitable and participatory development, social welfare, and social justice. The Institute then and now is known for its prompt and efficient response in sending relief in the face of natural and man-made disasters.

The School of Health Systems Studies is one of the most prestigious Schools within The Tata Institute of Social Sciences and one of the National and International Pioneers in Health Policy and Health Systems Studies. The school consists of 4 Centers. As detailed below.

• Centre for Health and Social Sciences

• Centre for Health Policy, Planning and Management

• Centre for Public Health

The school conducts 4 Masters’ Degree Programmes, which include Master of Hospital Administration, Master of Health Administration, Master of Public Health (Social Epidemiology), and Master of Public Health (Health Policy). Further, there are three Executive/Post Graduate Diploma Programmes offered by the School of Health Systems Studies.

NHSRC (National Health Systems Resource Centre)

National Health Systems Resource Center (NHSRC) has been set up under the National Health Mission (NRHM) of the Government of India to serve as an Apex Body for technical assistance in healthcare. Established in 2007, the National Health Systems Resource Centre’s mandate is to assist in policy and strategy development in the provision and mobilization of technical assistance to the states and in capacity building for the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoHFW) at the Center and in the States. The goal of this institution is to improve health outcomes by facilitating governance reform, health systems innovations, and improved information sharing among all stakeholders at the national, state, district and sub-district levels through specific capacity development and convergence models. It has a 21-member Governing Board, chaired by the Secretary, MoHFW, and the Government of India, with the Additional Secretary, MoHFW & Mission Director, NHM, as the Vice Chairperson of the Board and the Chairperson of its Executive Committee.

Quality Improvement Division :

The Quality Improvement Division at NHSRC has pioneered designing and implementing Quality Management systems specific to Public Health Facilities. QI division at NHSRC is the Nodal Agency at the National Level for the implementation of the National Quality Assurance Program for Public Health Facilities. QI Division has a team of dedicated and experienced professionals who work towards improving the quality of services. The key activities of the quality improvement division in the last five years are as detailed below:

1. Development of National Quality Assurance Standards

2. Quality Assessment and Scoring of the Public Hospitals

3. Training and Capacity Building of States for Assessment and Quality Improvement

4. Designing and Implementation of the “Kayakalp” award Scheme for Clean Hospitals

5. Development of Resource Material for Hospital Operations and Quality Assurance

6. Conducting Assessments on Hospital and Health System related issues e.g., Drugs & Logistics, Infection Control Practices, Quality Assurance, etc.

Programme Details:

The most recent data indicates that Public Hospitals still contribute to over 40% of all in-patient care in the nation. This substantial percentage encompasses nearly all hospitalization needs of the poor and marginalized sections of society. Additionally, these hospitals serve as focal points for implementing the majority of National Health Programs. As Public Hospitals, their staff is often tasked with providing a range of preventive and promotive health care services, along with considerable forensic duties—responsibilities not typically encountered by private sector hospitals. Remarkably, they manage all these roles with only about 20% of the total health expenditure.

It was with this understanding that the 12th Five-year Plan envisioned quality scoring for all Health Institutions and the implementation of a Quality Management System to tangibly enhance the quality of care. The aim is to provide suitable incentives and inputs to achieve and sustain the desired levels of quality. In alignment with this directive, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, has adopted an 'Implementation Framework for Quality Assurance in Public Health Facilities.' This framework, developed by NHSRC, the apex technical assistance organization of MoHFW, has evolved through extensive pilots across multiple states and discussions with key stakeholders. Successful implementation calls for a corresponding investment in capacity building for Public Health Professionals, Hospital Managers, and Senior Nursing Supervisors. The Centre for Hospital Management at SHSS has taken the initiative to enhance the ability of healthcare professionals to participate in and improve quality systems in Indian Hospitals, through a joint collaboration between NHSRC and TISS.

Programme Management:

The School of Health Systems Studies organizes the program in technical collaboration with NHSRC, New Delhi, while the contact program is hosted at the TISS Mumbai Campus. The PG Diploma will be awarded by the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), a Central Government funded Deemed University. In exceptional circumstances, there may be a possibility of changing the venue.

  • the context and background surrounding a particular research problem;
  • an exhaustive survey and review of literature related to the problem; and
  • a detailed methodological plan for investigating the problem.

Upon approval of the dissertation proposal, the doctoral student is promoted to PhD candidacy, and a timeline for completing the investigation and writing process is established.

Dissertation: The doctoral dissertation is an original, theoretical and/or empirical study that makes a significant contribution to the field. It should expand existing knowledge and demonstrate the student's knowledge of research methods and a mastery of their primary area of interest. The dissertation should be rigorously investigated; uphold the ethics and standards of the field; demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between the primary area of interest and the broader field; and be prepared for publication in a professional journal. It is expected that the dissertation will consist of an appropriate mix of quantitative and qualitative research methodology and be suitable for publication.

The Dissertation Examining Committee (DEC) is formed to oversee the student's doctoral research. It is charged with evaluating the student's dissertation and oral defense, including the student's ability to express verbally their research question, methodological approach, primary findings and implications. The DEC, which includes the members of the DAC, is comprised of at least three Graduate Faculty members. Two members, including the Chair, must be from the School of Pharmacy. The Chair is responsible for overseeing and guiding the student's progress, coordinating the responses of the Committee members, and informing the student of their academic progress. At least one additional Graduate Faculty member from outside the School of Pharmacy must be included on the DEC. This outside examiner should be identified no later than the beginning of the academic term in which the student will defend the dissertation. The DEC members vote to pass or fail the dissertation and the defense at the conclusion of the public presentation.

Committee compositions must be approved by the departmental graduate committee. If a student needs to change a member of a committee, the new member must be approved by the departmental graduate committee and by the Graduate School.

phd in quality assurance in india

PhD, research and its upshot: How much quality do we produce?

The phd (doctor of philosophy), or the doctoral degree, is considered the highest educational degree in the world. india is ranked fourth globally, producing slightly over 24,000 doctoral graduates each year. but it still lacks quality research..

Listen to Story

PhD, research and its upshot: How much quality do we produce?

A PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) is theoretically the highest educational degree all over the world. Also known as a doctoral degree, a PhD can be awarded to one after a master's or even an MPhil. A PhD enables a person to use the title ‘doctor’. The PhD research programme is supposed to aim to produce graduates who would contribute to the body of knowledge in their specific fields of study and develop innovative, theory-based, systematic, and practical solutions to the significant concerns of specific issues. Though it is challenging, it is also rewarding.

As per the most recent Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) report, less than 2 per cent of the world's population has a doctorate degree today. According to the US Census Bureau, only 1.2 per cent of the US population has a PhD, whereas Slovenia and Switzerland have the highest percentage of the population with a doctorate, at 5 per cent and 3 per cent, respectively. India stands tall in the number of doctoral graduates produced on a yearly basis, according to the recently released OECD report. Producing slightly over 24,000 doctoral graduates, India is ranked fourth against the USA, which produces 68,000 graduates and tops the list. An All India Survey of Higher Education (AISHE) report from 2019 revealed that the number of PhD degrees awarded has increased by 60 per cent in the last five years. The total PhD admissions increased manifold in the last few years from 1,26,451 in 2015-16 to 2,02,550 in 2019-20. A total of 38,986 students were awarded PhD degrees in 2019, which includes 21,577 male and 17,409 female candidates. 2,881 students enrolled in Integrated PhD programmes, in addition to 2.02 lakh students who enrolled in PhD degrees.

WHY DO PEOPLE OPT FOR A PHD?

Is research necessary in everyday life.

Research is a tool for building knowledge and facilitating learning. It's a means to comprehend issues and increase public awareness. It helps to flourish in business and gauge opportunities. It allows to invalidate lies and support the justifiable truths. Research also develops confidence in many ways such as reading, writing, analysing, and sharing valuable new information and knowledge through nourishment and mind exercise. It is required not just for students, research scholars and academics, but for all professionals and nonprofessionals alike, to determine what the general public may want to know or what researchers want others to realise or think critically about. Thus, research is an indispensable component in producing knowledge. Through research, people get the latest reliable knowledge, build credibility, help in narrowing down the scope and introduce newer ideas, inculcate better judgement and problem-solving capacity, and finally, it can help one reach the common man by providing the best solution to societal problems. Therefore, research is the most reliable way to understand and act on the complexities of various issues faced by human beings from time to time.

DOES RESEARCH HELP HUMANKIND?

Every kind of information is important to humankind and it should be known and available to all. People should be aware of what is happening in and around the world. Research exists for humankind because it helps in understanding our society, culture, ethics, life choices, and newer developments, whether scientific or technological.

READ | Banaras Hindu University launches 'Teach for BHU' scheme to engage PhD students in teaching

Research in education has a very vigorous role to play because it is supposed to provide a systematic analysis, observation, and prediction and development of new theories, models and principles. It also initiates a learning-teaching atmosphere and expands the decision-making process, brings uniformity and motivates others if it confirms the right facts and figures. So, through research, overall improvements of an individual is possible, which ultimately leads to the development of humankind.

From the above argument, it is very clear that PhD research has its dependability and importance in education, especially when we speak about educational institutions. But, in today’s scenario, PhD research is not looked at as intellectual development. Rather, it is done for the sake of doing to earn a degree. That's because a serious methodology is not justified or rationalised and no newness and indigenous knowledge are produced through new models or theories. Therefore, the question is, how robust or actual is our PhD research?

Though research is compulsory in PhD, scholars often do not select or explore tough or new areas. They rather select an ‘easy-going’ area, problem or issue. It is also observed that in India, most PhD findings are not so good, with no newness in knowledge production. Why is indigenous knowledge through PhD research lacking in India? Why does India lack in quality research? That's the million-dollar question today in the intellectual arena, even though we know the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 talks about promoting Indic knowledge through indigenous empirical study.

THE WAY FORWARD?

At the very outset, I must say that quality should not be compromised in PhD research and that favouritism should be stopped at the entry level. Sometimes, preference is given to family members or friends, or to someone who comes with a recommendation from the higher authorities. This must stop. We must also have strong guidelines, both qualitative and quantitative, for an analytical entrance examination because multiple-choice questions in PhD admission are not enough to adjudicate a good scholar who might be a future faculty. UGC scholarship can be fixed to up to 4 years, and scholars must complete their PhD within the 4-year time. Because longer time does not guarantee quality research, and there is no scientific proof of it. I personally feel 4 years is enough for completing a quality PhD in social sciences. My personal Technical Suggestive Model is that the first year should be coursework and examination. the second year should be for tools development, pilot study and data collection. the third year should be thesis writing, while the fourth year should be for going back to the field (respondents) again to re-analyse those findings and outcomes for the development of new models and theories, that can then be presented at a seminar or journaled for exclusive rights or patent. I feel it will be the only way to produce new models and indigenous theories or Indic knowledge in India.

Also, let's look at the scholarship perspective. A one-year reduction means UGC will accumulate more than Rs 4 lakh from a scholar in a year. Imagine the amount of money that can be accumulated in total, and utilised further for organisational support for scholars in case of need in future — for example, a welfare or research organisation to work for a cause. Also, the money can be utilised for free schooling and scholarships for orphan children, and disabled students who lost their parents during the Covid-19 pandemic. Think seriously and realistically, and you may not disagree with me.

As per a Hindustan Times report, dated March 17, 2022, the draft UGC (Minimum Standards and Procedure for Award of PhD Degree) Regulations, 2022, has proposed several changes, including making undergraduates who have been in the four-year programme with a minimum Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 7.5 eligible for PhD admissions, and also removing the mandatory requirement of having the research paper published before the submission of the thesis. It could sooner or later compromise the quality of research. Even continuous changes of regulations may confuse and complicate things for the research scholars. I feel UGC should have long-term — maybe 10 years — robust procedural research regulations and then continuously monitor and evaluate to see the gaps, if any, along with proper checks and balances regarding quality publication.

I sense educational institutions must admit only those students in PhD programmes who have a passion for research and rationality in the area, or want to work at the grass-root level with people’s issues and problems, not mediocre nor having UGC NET/JRF only.

Another observation is that rejection of thesis is very few in India, though it is written in the evaluation form. Let’s have an evaluation system that is very confidential. Supervisors often take advantage by giving the external evaluators names of a known person to easily complete the evaluation without any critical analysis of the thesis. I call it biases in the evaluation system. So, a strict system of evaluation should be developed after examining the areas of expertise of the examiners, even if it is an international examiner. There is a saying in India that thesis submission means it is done. This notion has to be changed now.

I always feel that PhD scholars should be given teaching opportunities at least a few times every semester, as a teacher's assistant or research faculty, to develop their interest in teaching and enrich their teaching capability and competence. Research ethics need to be strictly followed from admissions to submissions in the name of truth and scientific integrity, fairness, social responsibility, and validation of data. So, a culture of research has to be developed.

Strategic planning needs to be developed that can work on academic freedom and flexibility. Centralised planning for quality research has to be given priority as it is limited in India. Industry-partnership building for collaboration and research should be a must because this approach is well known and very successful in Australia and other countries. Strong research infrastructure through international journals, magazines, computing and networking infrastructure, and international collaboration through a Memorandum of understanding (MOU) is also desirable. An E-Research Unit can be introduced like Australia, and Support for Intellectual Property (IP) Management and its commercialisation for filing patents and protecting them should be reinforced. Classic research is not re-visiting or replicating, we have only an exemplar or paradigm of research. Therefore, replication of these classic research is possible when there will be revisiting of those extensively — from a set of examples to an extensive set up of replication of studies, which would help verify replicability criteria of the scientific method that is missing.

The very concept of category by Aristotle and other philosophers now needs to be redefined because it requires certain qualifications and justifications. Because we see that deciding a category does not adhere now. Therefore, researchers are being trapped or following the existing categories available in the literature, which has a gap, yet it has been accepted by many scholars. Today we must develop not only 'helping tools' but also more ‘knowledge tools’ because every social science subject should have their own knowledge tools used in research. Whatever we have now, is old, and indigenous and empirical knowledge tools need to be developed more. A single window system from a research governance perspective, like the passport seva, needs to be developed for a smooth procedural facet of research in India. More academic writing in research must be done and teaching jobs and promotions in teaching should be done based on quality research now.

Finally, impact on society through PhD research has to be ensured, and a rewards system should be introduced for faculty and scholars encouraging them towards quality research, both at national and international levels. Only then can we achieve a level of quality in our research in India, which then would be able to compete at an international level.
