Ranked Up!
The Observer of Management Education|January 2018

While universities in the US and Europe have a strong grip on global rankings, they will do well to avoid becoming complacent. Universities in India, Russia and especially China are making big strides according to the Times Higher Education BRICS & Emerging Economies University Rankings 2017. Indian universities are making major changes in their infrastructure and education pattern to get a global ranking

Ranked Up!

For the first time in 14 years, three Indian institutions led by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi have made it to a list of world’s top 200 universities. The two other Indian institutions in Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings 2018 are IIT-Bombay and Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. This is the first time three Indian institutions have made it to the list since it started ranking universities in 2004. In India you can find plenty of top-ranked universities that take their rightful place next to some of the biggest international university names out there.

Manipal University figures in the 701750 band, which is the best for a private Indian university. Overall among the Indian Universities, Manipal is in the 13th position. In this year’s ranking, over 950 universities from 84 countries have been ranked.

For the 2018 Rankings, QS has analyzed over 75 million citations from more than 12 million papers, 115,000 survey responses from employers and academics and considered more than 4,000 universities before evaluating 950 of them. The QS World University Rankings 2018 is bigger and more comprehensive than ever and remains the only global ranking to have been independently scrutinized.

Universities are evaluated according to six performance indicators including, academic reputation, employer reputation, student-to-faculty ratio, citations per faculty, international faculty ratio and international student ratio. Four of the indicators are based on ‘hard’ data, and the remaining two are based on major global surveys – one of academics and another of employers – each the largest of their kind.
