Archaic HRM policies withstand Indian HEI and demolish international stature of Indian education. Despite these expostulations, posterity of HRM in Indian higher education is heart-warming. By embosoming innovative approaches, leveraging technology, promotion of interdisciplinary collaborations and adoption of agile HRM policies, institutions can surmount live dilemmas and spring new vista for evolution; thus foster a culture of excellence and innovation within the sector. Against this backdrop, this study scours central issues and proposes pragmatic explications to reinforce HRM enactment.

Faculty makes educational objectives at the pragmatic level of classroom. Hence, a healthy HRM programme is imperative for development.

Literature Review:

Academic institutions increasingly use HRM to improve cost management, boost efficiency, and exert more control over individual workers, particularly academic personnel.⁵ Academics are intrinsically driven, indicating their focus on research, teaching and other scholarly endeavors. HEI are by nature self-governing.⁶ HRM practices and innovations influencing quality of modern organization include both innovation management and human capital management. They transform workplace and workforce.⁷ Report on international trend in HRM observed that new insights associating people and technology could equip people and organizations to whelm the existent challenging discord in organizations.⁸ Talent management and HRM processes examine selection of staffing according to organization’s strategy.⁹ There should be observing correspondence of qualifications, specialty, personal qualities and abilities to the nature of workout, interests of organization and employee.^10,11 Selection process incorporates search for people positions, considering requirements of social institution, attributes, etc..¹² HRM harmonizing potent approach and technologies is manifested in the crux of management, integration of individual goals and organization's overall strategic goal.¹³ Contemporary issues in HRM in HEI are staff indiscipline, funding shortage, poor recruitment, staff underperformance, and incessant teachers’ transfer.¹⁴ Competent HRM in universities is crucial.

HR having functionalities and methods integrate and maintain teaching staff in HEI.²⁹

Research gap:

HRM practices are circumscribed to the subjects of industries and average education. There is no panoramic study found apropos HRM practices in HEI in the Indian context. In India, average education has welcomed more attention than higher education. There are enough studies illuminating educational system. Few studies have been initiated in surveying human aspects as to higher education. A gap between the proposed HR practices and the practical pursuit is yet contemplated.

Research question:

Achingly, HEI in India are shabby with infrastructure and teachers contemplation of the poignant stimulus episodically, there are dilemmas concerning pertinence of higher education springing asymmetrical association between education, employment and development.

The chef-d'oeuvre of the study is framed to demonstrate, incipiently, challenges of HRM. Further, opportunities lying ahead and trends in HRM in Indian HEI have been portrayed. What’s more, few backstops have been recommended to subdue the locus. The author has enthralled HRM as this can balloon and revamp the contour of Indian higher education. Mechanism of assay is propitious for contemplating premonishments of higher education. The study does not cultivate new model or new theory; rather to invoke systematic analysis on this proposition, instantiates, assesses and bolsters in the perception of these concerns, entrusting crying and all-inclusive cognizance on them to hone eccentric hypothetic angle.
