Faculty Perspectives on Integrating Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) in Higher Education

Abstract This study investigates faculty perspectives on the integration of Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) into higher education curricula, a priority emphasized in India’s National Education Policy (NEP 2020). Drawing on survey responses extrapolated to a sample size of 100 faculty members, the research explores awareness, attitudes, perceived challenges, and institutional support mechanisms. The findings reveal that while 70% of faculty are aware of IKS, only 65% express positive attitudes toward its integration. Challenges such as lack of training (55%) and resources (40%) hinder adoption, while institutional support in the form of workshops (60%) and curriculum guidelines (50%) significantly predicts willingness to integrate IKS. Statistical analysis, including chi-square tests and logistic regression, demonstrates that younger faculty are more supportive of IKS adoption, and institutional support is the strongest predictor of willingness. The study contributes to the literature by addressing the research gap in faculty-centered empirical studies on IKS, offering insights into strategies for successful integration. Recommendations include structured training programs, standardized curriculum guidelines, and interdisciplinary collaboration. This research underscores the importance of institutional support in bridging the gap between policy and practice, ensuring that IKS becomes a meaningful component of modern education.
