NIRF 2021 Engineering rankings

Q: What is the NIRF 2021 Engineering ranking?

It is the official NIRF 2021 ranking list for the Engineering category, with rank, score and institution details.

The official NIRF 2021 Engineering ranking in this database contains 200 ranked institutions. Indian Institute of Technology Madras leads at rank 1 with a score of 90.19. IIT Delhi is second and IIT Bombay is third.

Among institutions classified by NIRFRank, 90 are government and 103 are private. VIT Vellore is the leading private entry at rank 12 with a score of 63.68. The list covers 29 states and 116 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.
