National Institutional Ranking Framework

The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) was launched by the Ministry of Education (MoE) in 2015.
This framework outlines a methodology to rank institutions across the country. There are separate rankings for different types of institutions depending on their areas of operation like universities and colleges, engineering institutions, management institutions, pharmacy institutions and architecture institutions.
The ranking framework evaluates institutions on five broad generic groups of parameters, i.e. Teaching, Learning and Resources (TLR), Research and Professional Practice (RP), Graduation Outcomes (GO), Outreach and Inclusivity (OI) and Perception (PR).

The Ministry of Education has released its National Institutional Ranking Framework 2022.

Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, is the top higher educational institute in the country followed by Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, and IIT Bombay.
Among Indian universities, IISc, Jawahar Lal Nehru University , Jamia Milia Islamia, Jadavpur University and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham were among the top five. And among the top five colleges in the country are Miranda House, Hindu College, Presidency College, Loyola College and Lady Shri Ram College for Women.
This is the seventh consecutive edition of NIRF, which was launched in 2015. It ranks colleges, universities and research institutions and also provides an overall ranking of all of them combined. Institutes are also ranked across seven subject domains, namely engineering, management, pharmacy, law, medical, architecture and dental.
While participation in the NIRF was voluntary in the initial years, it was made compulsory for all government-run educational institutions in 2018.
