How to Use This List

  • The India # column shows the college's national rank among all Engineering colleges — useful for comparing Haryana colleges against the national best.
  • The ▲/▼ vs 2024 column shows rank improvement or decline compared to NIRF 2024. A rising college often signals improving quality.
  • Rank-band colleges (if listed above) are ranked somewhere within that band nationally — they are accredited but NIRF does not release individual ranks for them.
  • Use NIRF score rather than rank alone to compare close-ranked colleges — a difference of 1 rank can mean just 0.1 score points.
  • NIRF rankings reflect academic quality and research output. For placement records, fee structure, and campus facilities, refer to the college's official website and NIRF disclosure reports at nirfindia.org.
