Five Years of India Rankings and its Impact on Performance Parameters of Engineering Educational Institutions in India Pt1 Teaching Learning and Resources Graduate Outcome Outreach and Inclusivity and Perception

This article analyses data on five years of India rankings to assess its impact on performance parameters of institutions of higher education on four (out of five) broad categories of parameters, namely i) Teaching, Learning and Resources; ii) Graduation Outcome; iii) Outreach and Inclusivity; and iv) Perception. The analysis on data on four years of India Rankings, i.e. 2017 to 2020 on various performance parameters of HEIs in engineering discipline provides an interesting insight and reveals that participating institutions are making strenuous effort to improve their performance on various parameters or sub-parameters identified under NIRF. The analyses reflect that performance of remaining eligible institutions has improved on most of the ranking parameters in comparison to the100 topranked institutions over a period of four years of ranking, i.e. from 2017 to 2020.
