DoMS IIT Roorkee now ranked in NIRF Top 10

The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) in 2014, realized the need for a national ranking framework for all the institutes of higher education in the country. The 16-member committee established for this purpose identified a set of measurable parameters that could be used as metrics for ranking institutions. The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) was created based on the suggestions of this core committee. The framework contains five parameters that capture the essential quality indicators which assimilate to form a quantitative rank for an institute. The parameters measure factors like resources, quality of research, stakeholder perception, outreach and inclusivity among other things.
