To ensure that Innovation is the primary fulcrum of all Higher Education Institutions, Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India, is introducing ‘Atal Ranking of Institutions on Innovation Achievements (ARIIA)’ to rank education institutions and universities on innovation-related indicators. ARIIA will consider all significant signs which are commonly used globally to list the most innovative education institutions/universities in the world.
“ARIIA ranking will certainly inspire Indian institutions to reorient their mindset and build ecosystems to encourage high-quality research, innovation, and entrepreneurship. More than quantity, ARIIA will focus on the quality of innovations and will try to measure the real impact created by these innovations nationally and internationally. Moreover, ARIIA will set tone and direction for institutions for future development for making them globally competitive and in the forefront of innovation,” the Ministry said.
“For India to emerge as a global innovation hub, the higher education institutions need to play a crucial role to create a sustainable innovation ecosystem,” the Ministry explained.
