Recently list of the Times Higher Education India Reputation Rankings was published The Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (IISc) has taken the number one position in a new ranking of the top 10 Indian higher education institutions based on their global academic prestige.
Earlier they published the Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings. There are still no Indian institutes in the global top 100. Two Indian institutions in the top 200 are IIT Bombay and IISc.
The 2013 edition of world reputation rankings are based on the results of a survey of over 16,600 academics from across the globe. They were asked to name a handful of ‘best’ institutions in their field. The report stated that, among the BRIC nations, India is the only one missing from the world top 100. “As a country with a rapidly growing economy and a fine tradition of scholarship, it is a cause for concern that India does not have any institutions that are sufficiently highly regarded by international scholars… This inaugural India Reputation Ranking not only gives a sense of the pecking order within India but also shows how far its top institutions must travel to join the elite top 100,” Phil Baty, rankings editor, said.
“It is encouraging that in terms of global academic reputation, India clearly has at least some highly regarded institutions that have not fallen too far behind the very best in the world,” Mr Baty said.
