In June 1913 Ambedkar stepped in the liberal environment of Columbia University as a young and eager scholar. Among the great university intellectuals John Dewey (1859-1952) left a lasting impression on him. This study on the one hand explores Dewey's way of thinking and his approach to education, and on the other the impact he made on Ambedkar as his teacher. Their approaches were similar but also different. Dewey was proposing ways to adjust education for a child as an individual in an industrial society, whereas Ambedkar was working to adjust education in a society to combat caste system. Despite this difference both agreed that scientific education was a key importance for a happier future of humankind.
