Tainted with corruption, mis-management and poor quality teaching, Tamil Nadu’s once highly reputed 22 state universities have lost their lustre.
In the latest NIRF (National Institutional Ranking Framework) 2017 league tables of India’s best universities compiled by the Union HRD ministry, only one state government university — Anna University — is ranked in the Top 10 (#6) with the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore in the Top 20. Moreover, in the NIRF 2017 ‘overall’ category, only IIT-Madras and Anna University among government institutions of higher education are ranked among the Top 20, although nearly 20 government and private deemed universities in the state are ranked among the Top 100 institutions.
The performance of Tamil Nadu’s government universities in international higher education rankings is inevitably more disappointing. In the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings 2017-18, Anna University, Chennai, is ranked in the 651-700 band and in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2018, IIT-M is ranked in the 601800 band with Annamalai University, Chidambaram, in the 801-1,000 band.
