3. Should it now allow entry at any stage temporary exit at the end of any semester?

Yes, if the student is engaged of the skill based activity outside the institute, he may be exempted of daily attendance etc. Of course he must show satisfactory record of his activities during the temporary period.

2. What are the other ways in which skill can be integrated with higher Education?

To create inter-disciplinary courses, making outdoor practical a part of the laboratory practical, sending the students to different factories etc. for a considerable time will form ultimate relationship between bookish knowledge and higher education.

1. Should skill based courses be made a part of regular courses so as to increase employability?
Yes, they are the need of the hour.
Instead of teaching thousands of years back History or Geography or plays by old stalwarts,
More scope should be given to skill based courses. Only 1% learners learn for quenching the thirst of knowledge. Remaining 99 % learn only for job. Skill based courses will definitely help them.
