Tamil Nadu
Top Engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu, filtered from the official NIRF 2017 ranking table.
The official NIRF 2017 Engineering ranking in this database contains 100 ranked institutions. Indian Institute of Technology Madras leads at rank 1 with a score of 87.96. IIT Bombay is second and IIT Kharagpur is third.
Among institutions classified by NIRFRank, 49 are government and 39 are private. VIT Vellore is the leading private entry at rank 13 with a score of 58.16. The list covers 24 states and 71 cities. A smaller rank number is better, and scores should be compared only within the same category and year.
Movement compares each year with the preceding available edition. Newly listed means absent from the comparison year, not necessarily a first appearance. Absence does not establish why an institution is missing. Rank changes alone do not explain changes in quality.
