The latest India rankings of educational institutions under the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) that came out on Monday gave an opportunity for many institutions in Kerala to rejoice. Four premier universities in the State and 14 colleges have featured in the top 100 rankings in their respective categories.
However, the rankings do not paint a good picture for north Kerala. St. Joseph’s College, Devagiri, Kozhikode, at 59, is the only college that has been featured among the top 100 from the Malabar region.
“It is a proud moment for us, having jumped from the 78th rank to 59th in a year,” said Boby Jose, Principal of the college.
