India Rankings-2017, National Institutional Ranking Framework, MHRD
The National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) was approved by the MHRD and launched by Honorable Minister of Human Resource Development on 29th September 2015.
The parameters broadly cover “Teaching, Learning and Resources,” “Research and Professional Practices,” “Graduation Outcomes,” “Outreach and Inclusivity,” and “Perception” for ranking.
Ranking Methodology:
Source of Data: Individual Institutes: In the absence of a reliable and comprehensive database that could supply all relevant data required for computing the scores for ranking, individual institutes desirous of participating in the ranking exercise were invited to register themselves on the NIRF portal and submit data through an Online Data Capturing System (DCS).
Data Collection and Data Capturing: Institutes who registered themselves for ranking under one or more disciplines were asked to submit the requisite data in the prescribed format directly on the web-based online Data Capturing Platform (DCS) developed for this purpose on NIRF portal for one or more disciplines.
Publications, Citations and Highly Cited Papers (HCP): Web of Science (WoS), Scopus and Indian Citation Index (ICI): Three citation databases were used as sources for retrieving data on number of publications, citations and highly cited papers for institutes that registered themselves for ranking under India Rankings 2017.
Online Perception Capturing System: An online platform was developed to capture the perception of peers, employers and public. The comments / feedback were auto-transmitted through an email without disclosing the identity of the stakeholder to the concerned institute(s) for taking necessary action at their end.
Data Verification: The Implementation Core Committee (ICC) set-up by the MHRD to oversee the implementation of ranking work addressed issues and pit-falls in the process of data collection, verification, authentication and interpretation. Nodal officers were identified and contacted to clear doubts or to attend to the feedback and anomalies pointed out by the expert committees. Verification of Data on Publications, Citations and Highly Cited Papers.
Data Interpretation and Ranking: Based on issues and pit-falls brought to the notice of Implementation Core Committee (ICC) related to data collection, verification, authentication and interpretation minor deviations were introduced in the metric and parameters defined in the NIRF.
