BHUBANESWAR, India,
May 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The
annual Times Higher Education Young University Rankings has been
announced today. In a notable achievement in its academic
rankings, KIIT Deemed to be University has ascended to the 11th
position in India in the Times
Higher Education Young University Rankings for 2024. This move
demonstrates KIIT's continuous improvement and commitment to
excellence in higher education.
KIIT Deemed to be University, which is just 20 years old, has
outshone many older and more established institutions, including
several IITs. This achievement is particularly significant
considering the youth of the institution compared to others that
have been educational pillars for about half a century.
In last year's rankings, KIIT was placed in the cohort of
151–200 globally. KIIT's global rank has significantly improved to
168 in this year's rankings. Out of the 673 universities worldwide
evaluated in this year's ranking, 55 were from India, placing KIIT in the elite top echelon
of young universities. The Times Higher Education Young University
Rankings specifically lists the world's best universities that are
50 years old or younger, assessing them across their core missions:
teaching, research, knowledge transfer, and international
outlook.
KIIT's rise in the rankings is a testament to its robust
academic framework and innovative educational practices. The
university has consistently been recognized for its dynamic
approach to education that emphasizes not just academic rigor but
also the holistic development of its students.
Faculty, students, and staff at KIIT and KISS have expressed
deep gratitude towards the Founder Dr. Achyuta Samanta. His visionary leadership and
dedication have been pivotal in KIIT's rapid rise and substantial
impact on both national and international levels.
Dr. Samanta commented on the achievement, stating, "This ranking
is a reflection of our relentless pursuit of academic excellence.
At KIIT, we are committed to providing world-class education and
preparing our students to be global leaders." He also
congratulated all teachers, staff, and students for this
achievement.
