NEW DELHI: India’s highestranked university is Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences for Dentistry, Tamil Nadu, which debuts in the 18th position, while another new entrant, Indian School of Mines (ISM) University, Dhanbad, is the second-highest ranked university at 26th place in engineering (mineral and mining), according to the latest QS World University Rankings by subject announced on Wednesday.
Also, four-and-a-half years after the inception of India’s Institutes of Eminence (IoE) scheme, its varsities have gained moderate ground on the global stage. Of the eight declared public IoE, four have increased their representation among the global Top-100, while two programmes have fallen out of the club for their academic discipline over last year.
