Having graduated from IISER Pune, I perfectly understand what he is saying and completely agree with him. Indian students are taught how to solve problems, but not how to ask questions. In research, the latter is far more important.

I'm also a student at IISER Pune right now, and I do agree that not being taught how to ask questions is plaguing a lot of Indian universities, but I believe there are exceptions to that. Namely, the IIXs (Indian Institutes). Undergraduate education at IIXs is very rigorous and has ample focus on asking questions. Having graduated from an IISER yourself you must be aware of the system of semester projects that IISER Pune has. You can credit a semester long project from a department of your choice where you can do actual "research" and that will count towards your total credit requirement for graduating successfully. This is a very novel system which (I believe) is limited to IISER Pune only (correct me if I'm wrong). There is also a lot of competition for research internships starting from the 1st year itself. I'm presently crediting a course which requires me to read actual research papers and make a presentation in class while collaborating with another classmate, we are also going to do a project in the said course as well. Other courses require us to push ourselves and write proofs ourselves, this is most certainly difficult but also very rewarding. In addition to this, I can confidently say that my peers are most definitely asking questions aplenty. Some of my batchmates also have publications in first year itself! Ofcourse one might argue, how much actual research happens in the said semester projects but I don't think the university can help in this regard. The amount of research happening depends on individual efforts.

its the system which forces us to be obedient or get crushed we don't like it either if i studied a chapter really well, and the other student learned the formulas of 3 chapters in the same time i will barely pass the exam but the other guy will probably top the semester. that's how the system keeps churning out the students with least innovation while crushing the curious ones. all the stupid stuffs like assignments eats away our time, the exams eat away our will to study sincerely, and mandatory attendance eats away our freedom of choice thus our students are garbage. blaming the students is totally wrong its the professors and directors who are refusing to adapt and innovate

Phd/doctorate is purely research, and in order to do research you need students with innovative mind and free open environment. In india we dont have innovation simply because we never cared. We trained throughout our life to clear an exam whether its JEE,CAT,UPSC,GATE, etc. I was a good student and did alot of trainings, attended lot of workshops, made complex projects, took interdisciplinary classes/workshops yet couldnot make it in IIT for my masters (Mtech) simply because they judge purely on 1 exam. The whole selection procedure focuses on students who could clear '1 exam' thats it. Ive seen students who never worked on their subjects, never attended conferences, never attended workshops, had their projects made by those commercial project shops, simply because they were busy attending GATE coaching classes all day (even if it means skipping college) and got themselves placed in IITs because of faulty selection procedure which care about just 1 exam. IITs were suppose to be a place for innovative minds & not for people who enters just to get campus placement or jobs. That been said i am fedup by indian education system. I might do my phd abroad (even if it means doing it in other 'low tier' asian countries, learning their language, and helping them as much as i can in the field of R&D because they dont judge students by 1 exam). Whats the point of having a strong CV when youre not even considered because you couldnt 'crack' an exam, or score extremely well.

India loves to control children, kill creativity, force specific ambitions on them, train them in fearing authority and tradition. This affects how much a person can think out of the box throughout their life. Interdisciplinary thinking and questioning is not encouraged. Group discussions of a free flowing nature are not encouraged. Due to our limited resources and cut throat socio-economic competition, we have a competition culture rather than a collaboration culture. Also, no resources, labs and even toys. There's always a rush and haste to do the prescribed thing. Innovation does not come from such a system, only managers and executives with an unhealthy, selfish, short term view of things. If everyone with power in academia was mandated to study and score well in child and teen psychology before getting their jobs, we would do a much better job of teaching our students.

He missed the most important point. Foreign PhD students work in collaboration. But an Indian PhD student is working completely on his own. So what is the big deal? The deal is that when u work in collaboration, your paper gets away easily in a top tier journal without much hindrance. Also, the real contribution of a student in that scenario is a fraction of the total work amongst collaborators. That is how academia works (which these professors won't blatantly admit). Indian PhD students are actually well trained but the disasters are caused by the supervisors themselves. Some of his points are bullshit. Even in the US, u don't question the supervisor after a certain extent. What he said is not the actual scenario. For your kind information, the so-called IItians are not amongst the best top students in the world. It is a feeling we like to show off as an Indian and think that cracking a JEE exam makes u a good researcher. This is complete nonsense. There are many good researchers from other colleges as well. Just google it u will get their names. I have seen several faculty interviews in IITs .So what is the reality about the interviews? Indians doing their PhD in foreign universities come with outstanding publications (specifically because of their collaboration), but when questioned single-handedly about the depths of their research, they are completely blank in that area. But still, they will be hired because they have a recommendation from big faculties or they have IIT background attached to them despite they are bad researchers. This sort of biased mentality is completely visible in the real world. So stop pretending. These faculties, themselves need approval from the US to show that they are actually good researchers. Just go to IIT Kanpur and IISC Bangalore to see the number of quality researchers there . The only hindrance to them is the lack of proper opportunities, that's all.

Of all things this guy said, 3:50 makes sense. Students don't question Profs in India. If anyone does ask the question, Prof. ensures to f**k up his career. It happened to me. :) Edit based on the comments here: Interesting to see that I am not alone in this club! Someone requested a backend story: I will share mine. Others while sharing, please do not refer to any name of the Prof. I do not want the moderators removing this post :) This is not any sad story or a journey that every Ph.D. student will face. Only a few lucky ones like me get this opportunity to enjoy these life experiences. I was an above-average (non-Ph.D) student in India, and I did reasonably well in my education. My adviser liked the enthu in me, and asked to join his lab for the Ph.D. I blatantly said NO and questioned why he insisted me to join the Ph.D. program with him. From that point, my life in the lab went down south :). Since that incident, I was like a ghost in the lab, and the Prof. seemed to behave as if I didn't exist. There were no more meetings to discuss the progress, and I was more like "Conference Zombie". Didn't know what to do:). Nevertheless, I applied for the Ph.D. programs in other universities and got rejected from all except one :). I was happy to get at least one offer and decided to wrap up the work in the lab with a Thesis on my research. Here comes the next blow from the Indian adviser. He asked me to reject the Ph.D. offer as he didn't have time to read my thesis, and also went one step ahead to contact my future Ph.D. adviser on why I could not graduate and had to defer the admission. I had given him 6 months to read my thesis! I reached out to a few other profs explaining this unfair treatment, and even though one of them supported me and tried their best to convince my adviser to let me graduate, sadly, it was of no use! I just accepted the reality. In due course of time, I reapplied for the Ph.D. program, and I got an offer. I learned from the past and hence never told the Indian adviser about my admission. I did not even request his recommendation letter. I defended the thesis, got the degree, and then told him about my admission:). Finally, I joined the new lab for my Ph.D., and life was peaceful. Here comes the next blow from the Indian Prof. ! He went behind my back to bad-mouth me to my Ph.D. adviser. I did foresee this happening, and hence as a precaution, I had shared my story with the Ph.D. professor to control any damage situations. Presently, I am doing well in my new lab, and looking back in time, I feel it was all fun. I might have done something really bad to irritate the Indian Prof or maybe some Profs cant hear a no as an answer.. hahaha

Although I am not a PhD, i have interned for two years in research after my masters and a PhD hopeful abroad. The PhD students here work in a rigid method where they follow the workflow of a scientific publication and continue to to replicate the paper by altering the input samples. The only objective is to publish papers and the discussions mostly revolve around the number of papers published in a year. Most of the coauthors are ghost authors who have rarely contributed to the paper. You are basically a good student if you have more publications but the quality of the publications is grossly undermined. There is hardly any breakthrough publication from India in the recent memory. Good quality publications from journals like cell press, science, nature from India is like a drop of water in the desert. Even after PhD, students can hardly frame a project for applying for grants at various central agencies. Thisis very appalling. The difference between mid tier varsities from India and EU or US is huge in terms of research output. This is heart breaking.

@@anusuyabhattacharyya9580 Yes one thing I can say for sure is that I can now publish a respectable paper with just a PCR machine. Probably is is because of the reason you just mentioned. However, it may also have its own drawbacks. Resource limited settings often chains our ideas to resource limited paper and within no time our minds become conditioned to that ilk. It may sometimes backfire as well. Suddenly we don't know what to do if we have a genome sequencer, a cell sorter or a HPC for example. Even with such resources suddenly we will come up with papers which are resource limited because our minds have already been programmed. You can see many papers published by indian authors with highthroughput experiments but in low quality journals. It may be the outcome of that conditioning.

But still, I find students and colleagues here have a broader and more definitive grasp on the subject matter. I think a big fault of this is also from the fact the professors in india do not care about students a lot whereas the professors i have had in Germany and now in France have always treated us much better. This mental game changes the thought process that Indian students apply for any subject/topic. I also feel that a lot of the PhDs end up with high paying jobs(mostly accompanied with vanity) and then blame the system which is why i made a decision before i started my PhD. Once i am done, i will teach in India. If i am not ready to put in the effort to uplift the student community, i cannot expect them to stay afloat.

It's there but doesn't always work properly. New one is not being baught, and existing one is such a precious resource and various other departments and research scholers are competing with one another to grab it for their thesis work alone. They are dreading the day the machine will stop working. How can you expect a quality research to come out of this kind of situation.

This attitude first should be showed by faculty only then it can be inculcated in students. I have never seen this peer attitude ever amongst research guides in India

this is where china beats india , you see usa is number 1 not because people over there are so smart , its number one coz they suck in all the good people from around the world and put massive barriers otherwise ..let me explain this with an example , i work for a us based firm which does analytics work, the position i m in pays very good salary its about 35 lpa now the same position in US with the same firm pays 250000 USD per annum adjusting this with cost of living if i were in US i would save a lot, many of my friends who joined the firm in india after working here for 3-4 years applied for similar positions in similar organisations based out of US/UK/Canada and moved out when i asked why they did what they did they gave me two prominent reasons first is of course the extra money second is the standard of living , my immediate counter question is then why dont you work here and make india better to which they generally have no response. Govt invests lakhs ( apart from the fee one pays ) into a student who is in IIT/IIM/NIT etc but what happens after these people graduate ? they get impressive offers from US firms and they move out so we are losing people who innovate and make companies worth billions and us is gaining them ...the positive side is of course with indians moving out there is soft power but if that good enough ?if only those indians had not moved to US we in india would have made companies like Microsoft , tesla or google ...look at china and chinese students ( i know an overwhelming majority of them are sons and daughters of CCP officials but still) they always come back and then they innovate and make billions helping their nation grow...all we are importing is illegal Bangladeshis who only increase the burden on the govt and losing great minds who rarely come back.

bro ur comment made no sense....this looks like an and by millennial or an older gen....well peeps born from 2000 and above are part of the globalized generation where borders are porus.....the reason y smart indians leave is because indian society is structured to suffocate them if they don't and smart people have good foresight and now that the youth can see that the fight is not worth it...it really makes no sense to live...take for example the case happening in karnataka where dumb people r discussing about uniforms while in USA hijabs have been accepted and people have moved on from this....tday in India litrelly govt is debating something which is accepted everywhere....such nonsense doesn't go unnoticed and people take cues....if India wants to retain its people then it needs to show that is it even ready to absorb them....in the current state India dosnet even have enough jobs and the all the govt does is blame nehru....its disappointing and appalling...not worth a bit....India needs to elect smart people first then it can have its smart people otherwise entire globe is waiting for smart people

@@ishanharshvardhan6687 yeah same,I don't blame smart people to leave India to settle abroad,because tbh their worth is not realised by Indians,at the end of the day,the people will still ask them the package they got instead of the knowledge they have or the amount of happiness they get. They just don't care about research AT ALL.

Really? Most of them don't consider phd as an option because if you choose phd as an option you are literally choosing a path where you are compromising with money you could earn a lot in those 5 years in software or it sector etc. Besides between phd and 12th there are 5 years people often find new perspectives in those years so "quality" people crack iit then go to us is a narrow way of thinking impo. We have quality and diligent students what we don't have enough funding and proper infrastructure, simply in india choosing phd as a career means choosing a path of uncertainty because not many vacancies are there in academic positions and having a phd doesn't guarantee your employment you are basically unemployed at the age of 30.

The Innovative ideas donot come in a flash. So students must be trained from the school education that how to think? Why? To elevate the Indian Higher education, school education must be innovative, curriculum must be changed, philosophy is the subject which helps the learner to think in a more innovative way. And in our country India philosophy has a very less importance.

I don't understand this fashionable criticism of 'the system'. A system is meant to generate uniformity. Expecting creativity in it is absurdity. Loading a system with the subjective variables of every human on the planet will result in a bloated system beyond human comprehension! I say this, because every criticism of the "Indian education system", is something that western students aren't happy with their system either. I have seen horror stories of US PhDs going for years. The US PhD is driven mainly by funding concerns, so much so, that the PhD system there, and across much of the western world is as toxic as anything. This business of openness in questioning isn't true - the only difference is that the funder is a bigger stakeholder there, and I am not sure how good that it. It's not even research at this point, but fudging crap to please the money holder. That is, if one wants to analyse where India is toxic. About rote learning, again, disagree. A level of quick recall is something most fields expect of practitioners and even creative individuals. No one rattaafies more than singers and actors, the popularly known creative fields - I am sure the expectations of memorization in STEM isn't unfair. Let me know when actors write their own dialogues instead of memorizing what's given to them, or when singers sing random crap instead of the lyrics given to them - else, I don't get this criticism of memorization for just STEM either, but not other fields. Sportspersons showing off repetition in their techniques, dancers, linguists or lyricists and language and grammar...I could keep going and show examples in every sphere outside STEM, that is supposed to be creative, but still has structure, rigor, repetition, rote-learning - creativity doesn't imply anarchy! I believe any system outputs clones of some measure, which is why Prof. Mausam saw similarities in them too. That hint of individualism is upto the individual, and certainly not a system's burden in my view.
