Frequently asked questions

Answers use counts from this page's live institute list.

How many institutes appear for Ph.D Mass Communication and Journalism?
12 institutes currently match this page’s filter. 0 of them have a numeric NIRF Engineering rank in our database.
Is “best” based on editorial opinion?
No. Where we sort or headline by rank, the order follows published NIRF Engineering ranks (nirfindia.org). Unranked institutes are not given a fabricated Knwdle rank.
What is Graduation Outcomes (GO)?
GO is an NIRF sub-score computed independently of self-reported placement packages. None of the institutes on this page currently have a GO value stored.
Why do some institutes lack a JoSAA closing rank?
Non-JoSAA admission paths (institute entrance exams, state counselling) are labeled separately. We do not invent closing ranks for those routes.
What we publish — and what we don't

Included when sourced

  • NIRF Engineering ranks & sub-scores (nirfindia.org)
  • JoSAA closing ranks already in our database
  • Programmes from AICTE EOA / institute official catalogues
  • Fees & admissions copy only from the institute's own site
  • Campus images from Wikimedia Commons or official media

Deliberately excluded

  • Star reviews and self-reported placement packages
  • Fees estimated or copied from aggregator directories
  • Facts that appear only on compiled third-party college directories

NIRF Graduation Outcomes (GO) is the honest substitute for placement-intent browsing — an independent metric, not a package figure.
