Ranking Parameters
NIRF ranks institutions based on several parameters, grouped into five broad categories:
- Teaching, Learning, and Resources (TLR): This includes metrics like faculty qualifications, student-teacher ratio, and availability of resources.
- Research and Professional Practices (RP): This assesses research output, quality of publications, patents, and other professional practices.
- Graduation Outcomes (GO): This measures student success, including graduation rates, placement statistics, and higher education progression.
- Outreach and Inclusivity (OI): This evaluates the institution’s efforts in terms of diversity, inclusivity, and societal outreach.
- Perception (PR): This considers the reputation of the institution among academics, employers, and the public.
Frequently Asked Question
The primary objective of the NIRF rankings is to assess and rank higher education institutions in India based on various parameters. This helps in providing a comprehensive evaluation of the institutions’ performance and encourages them to improve their academic and research capabilities.
The NIRF rankings are released annually. They serve as a yearly report card for institutions, reflecting their performance over the past year
The NIRF 2024 rankings cover 13 categories, including:
Overall Performance
Top Universities
Top Colleges
Research Institutions
Engineering
Management
Pharmacy
Medical
Dental
Law
Architecture and Planning
Agriculture and Allied Sectors
Innovation
While placements are an important aspect of the graduation outcomes parameter, the NIRF rankings consider a broader range of factors beyond just placements. This includes teaching quality, research output, and inclusivity, among others.
NIRF accreditation is a comprehensive assessment of an institution that occurs every five years, providing an absolute grade. In contrast, NIRF ranking is an annual assessment that ranks institutions relative to each other based on their yearly performance
