Abstract
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 is a major step towards improving higher education in India, focusing on better infrastructure and promoting research. This study examines how NEP 2020 changes Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) by encouraging them to build world-class facilities and boost research activities. It highlights key reforms like giving institutions more freedom, creating multidisciplinary Universities, and supporting research through the National Research Foundation (NRF). The study examines how these changes aim to improve the quality of education and research in India. It also explores how HEIs use technology and digital tools to support learning and research. Additionally, the study reviews how the policy encourages global partnerships and addresses gaps in research funding and capacity. Through a mix of legal analysis and data collection, this study evaluates the progress, challenges, and future possibilities of the NEP’s impact on higher education in India. The findings show the policy’s potential to bring lasting improvements while identifying areas that need more attention for continued growth. Keywords: Institution, Explore, Policy, Technology
