UGC to allow experts without PhD to teach

In a major move to rope in industry experts and professionals, the University Grants Commission (UGC) is doing away with the mandatory PhD requirement to teach in central universities. Special positions — professor of practice and associate professor of practice — are being created. This will allow, say a diplomat, to walk in to teach international relations.
