As many as 6,000 colleges and universities participated this year in the sixth edition of NIRF 2022 Rankings. In 2016, the institutes were ranked in only four categories which increased to eleven in 2021 when the research category was introduced.
The ranking framework judges institutions under five broad generic groups of parameters of Teaching, Learning and Resources (TLR), Research and Professional Practice (RP), Graduation Outcomes (GO), Outreach and Inclusivity (OI) and Perception (PR). Ranks are assigned based on the total sum of marks assigned for each of these five broad groups of parameters.
