In India, Engineering Success

In India, Engineering Success is an interesting article in the Washington Post that comments on the interplay between education and development policies. Advancing education is often seen as key to spurring development. The author does not discount that but makes the point that India has long had exceptional education institutions without much development. Only when market reforms were made, and business boomed were those educational advantages able to contribute to economic growth. That economic growth has, in turn, fueled demand for more education services, thus starting an upward spiral.
