About NIRF

• The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) is a methodology adopted by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India, to rank institutions of higher education in India.
• 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)
  • Perception (PR).
• Rankings help universities to improve their performance on various ranking parameters and identify gaps in research and areas of improvement.
