About

About National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF):

  • The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) was approved by the Ministry of Education in September 2015.
  • National Institute Ranking Framework or NIRF is the first-ever effort by the government to rank higher education institutions (HEIs) in the country. Before NIRF's launch in 2016, HEIs were usually ranked by private entities, especially news magazines.
  • This framework outlines a methodology to rank institutions across the country. The methodology assesses broad parameters for ranking various universities and institutions:
    1. Teaching, Learning, and Resources (TLR)
    2. Research and Professional Practice (RP)
    3. Graduation Outcomes (GO)
    4. Outreach and Inclusivity (OI)
    5. Peer Perception (PR)
  • 11 Categories: NIRF India Ranking 2022 has been announced for 11 categories. This includes overall, university, management, college, pharmacy, medical, engineering, architecture, ARIIA (Atal Ranking of Institutions on Innovation Achievements), law, and research institutions.
