Highlighting the Bhagwant Mann government’s vision for higher education, Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains said, “The old model of theoretical, exam-centric learning is outdated. We are replacing it with hands-on training, lab immersion and real-world problem-solving. Sardar Beant Singh University will now become a launchpad for innovators, not just degree-holders.”
He added, “Every student will undergo mandatory semester-long internships and live projects. The goal is to ensure that when a student graduates, they are already industry-ready. This is not just a curriculum change. It is a revolution in how Punjab learns, earns and grows.”
Emphasising the need to curb brain drain, Harjot Singh Bains said, “This initiative is designed to reverse the state’s brain drain. Parents in Punjab should no longer feel forced to send their children outside for quality tech or pharma education. The Bhagwant Singh Mann Government is building future-ready universities right here.”
