A new academic volume titled Human Resource Management in Higher Education Institutions: AI-Driven Sustainability and Transformation has been released, offering a timely and comprehensive examination of how human resource practices in higher education are evolving in response to artificial intelligence, digital transformation, and sustainability imperatives.
Authored by Mr. Shubham Kadam, Dr. Deepak Sharma, Dr. Anurag Luharia, Dr. Pankajkumar Anawade, Dr. Chhitij Raj, and Ms. Utkarsha Wanjari, and edited by Dr. Pankajkumar Anawade, the book presents a structured and research-oriented analysis of HRM as a strategic function within colleges and universities. It moves beyond traditional administrative perspectives to highlight people-centric, technology-enabled, and policy-driven approaches to institutional development.
The book covers key areas such as human resource planning, recruitment and selection, performance appraisal, faculty development, compensation, employee relations, workplace culture, and regulatory frameworks in Indian higher education. A significant focus is placed on AI integration, digital HR systems, sustainable workforce practices, and emerging trends, making the work highly relevant in the context of NEP 2020 and global higher education reforms.
Designed as a valuable resource for postgraduate students, research scholars, faculty members, and academic administrators, the book aims to support informed decision-making and promote future-ready human resource strategies in higher education institutions.
With its blend of theoretical foundations, contemporary practices, and policy insights, this publication contributes meaningfully to ongoing discussions on academic leadership, institutional sustainability, and transformation in higher education.
