Bhubaneswar: KIIT Deemed-to-be-University has secured 13th position among Indian universities and 147th place in Asia in the prestigious Times Higher Education’s Asia University Ranking.
It’s a remarkable improvement considering that KIIT was placed in the 201-250 range in last year’s rankings.
KIIT has also emerged as the leading university in Odisha, surpassing public and private institutions in the region.
The rankings are based on various criteria including ‘teaching’, ‘research’, ‘citation’, ‘international outlook’, and ‘industry income’.
KIIT’s strong performance across these areas helped it rise significantly in the ranking list.
It is worth highlighting that despite being only 25 years old, KIIT has outperformed several well-established institutions on the list, many of which have been around for over 50 years. Additionally, it is worth noting that KIIT received its deemed-to-be-university status a mere 19 years ago.
KIIT and KISS Founder Dr Achyuta Samanta congratulated all faculty, teachers, students and staff of the institutions for the grand achievement.
