About the lecture
Why does any society want its people to be educated? And what is the role of arts within it? In this day and age of technology, the big question that one grapples with is whether education is making you think and how does one learn to think. We believe that by integrating arts, one is able to view the world more comprehensively, bring extended emotion into education, and build skills that are more diverse to address complex questions. The talk will explore this world of how art is presented in a liberal arts framework and what stands in its way in today’s India.

About the speaker
Professor Pankaj Chandra is the Vice Chancellor of Ahmedabad University. He was the Director of the IIM Bangalore and Professor of Operations & Technology Management at IIM Ahmedabad. His recent book titled ‘Building Universities that Matter’ studies issues of Governance, Change & Institution Building in Indian Universities. He is involved in building a liberal art driven research University and within it, a School of Performing and Visual Arts.
