| For higher education, Gujarat has established five more universities. These include Nirma University at Ahmedabad, DDU at Nadiad, DAIICT at Gandhinagar, Shyamji Krishna Verma University at Kutch and Ganpat University at Mehsana. |
| A National Law University has also been established in Gandhinagar. Apart from this, four agricultural universities have also been set up and have formed a network for collaborative research. Several new engineering, pharmacy and technical colleges have been set up and this has led to doubling of the intake capacity in the last five years. An IIT (Indian Institute of Technology) too is being planned in Gujarat. |
| To cater to the demands of a knowledge based economy, new courses have been introduced to develop domain-specific human resources. The stretch between Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar is now being developed as a knowledge corridor. Land has been allotted and several IT parks and centres of excellence are taking shape here. |
| All such measures for human resource development are expected to bring about a revolution in educational standards in Gujarat. |
