NIRF 2018 Engineering rankings

Q: What is the NIRF 2018 Engineering ranking?

It is the official NIRF 2018 ranking list for the Engineering category, with rank, score and institution details.

The official NIRF 2018 Engineering ranking in this database contains 100 ranked institutions. Indian Institute of Technology Madras leads at rank 1 with a score of 88.95. IIT Bombay is second and IIT Delhi is third.

Among institutions classified by NIRFRank, 62 are government and 37 are private. VIT Vellore is the leading private entry at rank 16 with a score of 57.02. The list covers 26 states and 68 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.
