Elevating excellence in higher education is increasingly linked to research and publications, particularly in the context of the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) in India. Research output and the quality of publications play a pivotal role in determining an institution’s rank, as NIRF evaluates universities on various parameters, including research and professional practices. A robust research culture, reflected in high-quality publications in reputed journals, enhances an institution’s credibility and global standing. It not only contributes to the academic community but also demonstrates an institution’s commitment to innovation, problem-solving, and societal impact. Furthermore, institutions that prioritize research foster a vibrant academic environment, attracting top-tier faculty and students, which, in turn, fuels further academic and research advancements. Thus, excelling in research and publications is integral to achieving higher NIRF rankings, ensuring an institution’s reputation as a leader in education and knowledge creation.
