Ramaiah Institute of Technology Rankings 2027–28
Rankings should be compared within the same publisher, discipline and edition. Ramaiah Institute of Technology (RIT/MSRIT) publishes 2025 results for Engineering and Architecture, while its overall placement is shown as a rank band. Those are separate NIRF categories with different participating institutions and scoring tables; they should not be collapsed into one college rank.
NIRF India Rankings 2025
RIT’s official homepage reports that the institute ranked 75th in Engineering among 1,584 institutions and 31st in Architecture among 131 institutions in NIRF 2025. It also reports an Overall band of 101–150 among 4,045 institutions and universities. Engineering and Architecture are published as exact ranks, while the Overall result is a band: the band does not identify RIT’s exact position within the range.
The Ministry of Education’s NIRF Engineering 2025 table independently lists M. S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology at rank 75, score 49.26, with Teaching, Learning and Resources 70.38, Research and Professional Practice 28.02, Graduation Outcomes 62.77, Outreach and Inclusivity 56.51, and Perception 15.50. That is an Engineering category result. RIT’s reports page links its 2025 Engineering and Architecture rank certificates, which provide institute-specific evidence for the two disciplines.
A stale-text conflict on the institute site
RIT’s reports page also contains older general text saying rank 78 in Engineering and rank 23 in Architecture. The same page links certificates titled NIRF Engineering Ranking 2025 and NIRF Architecture Ranking 2025, while the homepage’s NIRF 2025 statement says Engineering 75 and Architecture 31. The Ministry’s NIRF 2025 Engineering ranking page also places RIT at 75. The older 78/23 paragraph is therefore inconsistent with the linked 2025 certificate labels and current homepage statement; this guide uses the current 2025 figures and does not present the generic paragraph as the 2025 result.
What the NIRF position measures
NIRF describes five broad Engineering parameters: Teaching, Learning and Resources; Research and Professional Practice; Graduation Outcomes; Outreach and Inclusivity; and Perception. RIT’s 2025 score profile shows a higher score for Teaching, Learning and Resources (70.38) and Graduation Outcomes (62.77) than for Research and Professional Practice (28.02) or Perception (15.50). The score components help explain how a category score is assembled, but they are not grades for an individual programme and do not establish that every student experiences the same teaching, placement or research opportunity.
The reported rank is a year-specific comparison across institutions participating in that category. A 2025 ranking is useful as a dated institutional benchmark, but it does not guarantee future ranking, course quality, placement or admission. For applicants, compare a ranking with the exact programme’s curriculum, fees, accreditation, facilities, faculty and cohort-level outcomes. The NIRF Overall band should not be compared numerically with the exact Engineering or Architecture rank because the category pool and result format differ.
How to use the rankings
- Start with the programme. B.E. applicants may find the Engineering category most relevant; B.Arch. applicants can look at Architecture. The Overall band is broader and does not replace a discipline comparison.
- Keep the edition year visible. These values are for NIRF India Rankings 2025. Do not label them as a 2026 or 2027 result merely because the admission guide edition is 2027–28.
- Compare like with like. Check the same ranking publisher, discipline and year when comparing RIT with another institution. Separate exact ranks from rank bands.
- Inspect underlying measures. The NIRF score components show distinct strengths and weaker dimensions at the institution level. Review the relevant public data and the specific programme before drawing conclusions.
- Treat rankings as one input. They summarize a defined methodology and data year; personal fit and course-level experience require additional evidence.
Frequently asked questions
What is RIT’s NIRF 2025 Engineering rank? It is 75. The Ministry’s Engineering ranking table lists the institution at rank 75 and score 49.26.
What is the Architecture rank? RIT reports rank 31 in NIRF 2025 Architecture among 131 institutions.
What does Overall 101–150 mean? NIRF placed RIT in the 101–150 rank band for Overall, as reported by the institute. The band does not show an exact position within those 50 places.
Why does one RIT page say 78 and 23? The reports page retains older generic copy with those numbers, while it links 2025 certificates and the homepage states 75 and 31 for 2025. The current 2025 Engineering number is corroborated by the Ministry’s rank table; do not treat the older copy as a current result.
