India Today’s Top Colleges Survey

The 25th Edition of India Today Group – MDRA survey of Best Colleges in India was released recently. “Since 2018, the survey is being conducted in association with the reputed Delhi-based market research agency Marketing & Development Research Associates (MDRA) and has been widely appreciated for its consistency,” the magazine conveyed in its edition

“For this year, the groundwork was done between December 2020 and June 2021. Colleges were ranked across 14 streams—arts, science, commerce, medical, dental, engineering, architecture, law, mass communication, hotel management, BBA, BCA, social work and fashion design.”

“For the objective ranking, MDRA fine-tuned over 112 performance indicators in each stream to provide the most comprehensive and balanced comparisons of colleges. The indicators were clubbed under five broad parameters—‘Intake Quality & Governance’, ‘Academic Excellence’, ‘Infrastructure & Living Experience’, ‘Personality & Leadership Development’ and ‘Career Progression & Placement’. An attempt was also made to understand how colleges had prepared themselves to handle the Covid pandemic.”

To provide more relevant and accurate information, MDRA evaluated the colleges on the basis of current year data.
