Jobs not available despite degrees like BA, BSc, and BCom; NITI Aayog releases report..

A recent report released by NITI Aayog has revealed startling findings. The report indicates that degree courses such as BA, BSc, and BCom are contributing to rising unemployment in the country. It states that these degree programs are outdated and do not adequately equip students to secure employment.

**Courses Based on Outdated Curricula**
NITI Aayog notes that these degree courses operate on outdated curricula. Consequently, students obtaining these degrees often fail to acquire the skills required by the industry, making it difficult for them to find jobs.

**Many Students Pursue These Courses Solely for Government Jobs**

The report highlights that graduation is a mandatory eligibility criterion for many government jobs. As a result, students opt for degree courses like BA, BSc, and BCom specifically to meet the eligibility requirements for government employment.

**Recommendations for Change**
NITI Aayog has also recommended changes to these degree courses. It has urged the government to make the education system more job-oriented. The Commission suggests that universities and colleges update their existing syllabi to align with industry needs. It recommends providing internship opportunities alongside academic studies so that students can gain practical, real-world insights. Additionally, the Commission suggests focusing on skill enhancement and incorporating vocational and employment-linked courses into the curriculum.
