Mumbai: India is now the world’s fourth-largest producer of research, generating 1.3 million academic papers in 2023-24, trailing only behind China (4.5m), US (4.4m), and UK (1.4m), according to the 2024 QS World University Rankings by Subject, compiled by QS Quacquarelli Symonds.  The agency offers a detailed analysis of over 16,400 university programmes from 1,500-plus universities in 95 countries. The rankings cover 56 academic disciplines and five faculty areas (arts and humanities, engineering and technology, life sciences, natural sciences and social sciences).

 India’s overall performance showed a notable 17% year-on-year improvement. Jessica Turner, QS CEO, said: “One of the biggest challenges faced by India is educational — providing high-quality tertiary education in the face of exploding demand: this was recognised by 2020’s NEP (National Education Policy), which set the ambitious target of a 50% gross enrolment ratio by 2035. It should, therefore, provide some reassurance that the number of Indian programmes featuring across our 55 subject rankings and five broad faculty areas has increased — from 355 to 424.”

 India’s highest-ranked university is JNU for development studies (20th globally, a new entry in this discipline); the next two are IIM-Ahmedabad, debuting in the 22nd position for business and management studies while Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences (deemed to be university) secured the 24th spot globally in dentistry and is the only Indian university to achieve perfect score (100/100) in one of the QS indicators, namely the H Index.

 Research-wise, India has achieved a 20% improvement in the citations per paper indicator, reflecting research capability. There has been 16% growth in the international research network indicator, which measures volume and diversity of research partnerships. There was a decrease of 5% in the index, which assesses balance between productivity and its impact.
