The Ministry of Education will unveil the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) tomorrow, August 12, 2024, at 3 pm. The announcement will be made during a press conference led by Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Last year, the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras (IIT Madras) maintained its position as the top institution in the "overall" category for the fifth year in a row.
The ranking process evaluates institutions through a comprehensive set of criteria including teaching quality, research, graduation outcomes, outreach, inclusion, and public perception. Each criterion is weighted differently: Teaching, learning, and research each account for 30%, graduation outcomes contribute 20%, and outreach, inclusion, and perception each make up 10%.
