They also stated that the research is different from the other ranking lists that are released by analysing the Universities on factors such as research, teaching, industry outlook and/or international outlook, etc, to award the institutes with their ranks.
With such ranks being in favour of such Universities and Institutes, it can be assumed that the varsities may receive international applications. This will also ensure a better relationship with other countries. With Indian Institutes and Universities bagging various World Ranks, the standards of education that will be offered at the varsity will be at par with World-Renowned Universities, thus producing graduates with a better resume at the end.
