In recent years, higher education in India has undergone significant changes and advancements, particularly with the integration of technology and innovation into the learning process. With the increasing use of digital tools and platforms, individuals must understand the responsibilities and ethics associated with the use of technology. This is where digital citizenship education comes into play. In the context of higher education, digital citizenship education can play a crucial role in preparing students to become responsible and informed digital citizens. The purpose of this study is to examine the technological innovation in higher education in India, with a special emphasis on digital citizenship education, and to analyse the factors that influence its integration. The study aims to provide insights into the challenges and opportunities related to the implementation of digital citizenship education in Indian universities and to make recommendations for its effective integration into the higher education curriculum.
