The latest rankings for higher Education institutions in the country, released by the National Institute of Ranking Framewok (NIRF), present a not-so-encouraging picture forKarnatakainstitutions with just a handful of universities making it to the list and only two colleges from the state finding a place in the top 100.
The silver lining came in the form of Indian Institute of Science (IISc) that managed to retain its top position among the state’s universities for the eighth consecutive year, even as the number of universities from Karnataka in the top 100 dropped from 12 to ten.
The rankings were done on the basis of TEACHING, Learning and Resources, research and professional practices, graduation outcomes, outreach and inclusivity, and perception.
NLSIU retained its first position in law for the sixth consecutive year. While Christ University improved its ranking from 16 to13, Alliance University stood at 87th in management studies.
