What is NIRF Ranking?
National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF)
The NIRF is a methodology to rank institutions across the country based on various parameters.
NIRF was approved by the Ministry of Education and launched on 29th September 2015.
It is the first-ever effort by the government to rank Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the country.
The weightage for each parameter varies depending on the category of the institution
The NIRF releases rankings across various categories: ‘Overall’, ‘Research Institutions’, ‘Universities’, and ‘Colleges’, and specific disciplines like engineering, management, pharmacy, law, etc.
The ranking framework judges these educational institutions under five broad generic groups of parameters of –
Teaching, Learning and Resources (TLR) (30% weightage),
Research and Professional Practice (RP) (30% weightage),
Graduation Outcomes (GO) (20% weightage),
Outreach and Inclusivity (OI) (10% weightage) and
Perception (PR) (10% weightage)
