AbstractBy 2030, one large multidisciplinary college in every district-this was a headline that one could not miss when the National Education Policy 2020 was announced. The headline encapsulates the bold reforms that will be implemented in the Indian education and higher education system. The focus on making education multidisciplinary is a significant step that will benefit the students, and one that will have far reaching effects. The Government of India has done a tremendous job in creating an enabling ecosystem for offering multidisciplinary education to flourish and making a difference to students, who in turn will make an impact on the future of our country. The flexibility to choose subjects from sciences and humanities with the ability to also learn fine arts and sports will give students a wide range of subjects to choose without the restrictions they faced earlier. With the creative combination of subjects, cutting edge curriculum, flexible options, and multiple entry and exit options during the undergraduate course, students can explore their areas of interest and also choose careers of their choice. In addition, this kind of approach will foster intellectual curiosity, a critical thought process, self-reflection, leadership and teamwork skills, a sense of commitment, professionalism and a heightened sensitivity to one's socio-cultural environment. Introducing multidisciplinary approaches in the field of humanities, the students would be empowered, augmenting the potentiality of human resources and this paves the way for accelerating the process of social, economic, and environmental development and sustainability.
