Research Projects as per NEP 2020

Meeting NEP 2020 Goals Through Real Financial Inquiry

Overview

The NEP 2020 framework places strong emphasis on experiential, research-based learning, and EDUTRI’s financial literacy research projects are built specifically to fit that mandate. Students undertake structured, curriculum-aligned research on real financial and economic topics — from household budgeting patterns to local market behaviour — developing both academic rigour and practical financial literacy in the process. This is not generic project work; each research assignment is designed to strengthen specific skills the new education policy prioritises, including critical thinking, data-based reasoning, and independent inquiry. Institutions benefit because these projects can be integrated directly into existing academic requirements rather than sitting outside them. Students benefit because the research process forces them to engage with financial concepts far more deeply than a lecture ever could. The outcome is coursework that satisfies academic expectations while genuinely building financial capability that stays with students well beyond the assignment deadline.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• Fully aligned with NEP 2020’s experiential and research-based learning goals
• Integrates directly into existing academic and assessment structures
• Strengthens independent inquiry and evidence-based reasoning skills
• Topics are drawn from real household and market scenarios, not abstract theory
• Gives institutions a ready-made way to meet policy requirements with genuine impact
