Amrita University is now the 5th Best in India & awarded with an A++ NAAC Grade

The university has emerged as one of the most sought-after institutions within what certainly is a very short span of time.

Amrita University is hogging the headlines. Yet again.

This time, it has been for the A++ accreditation – the highest – it has received from NAAC, the national body that assesses Higher Education Institutions in India. Amrita is the youngest in the club.

This recognition follows close on the heels of several others. In 2021, it was ranked the 5th best Indian university in the NIRF rankings. Additionally, the university was ranked 81st worldwide, in THE Impact rankings for the same year. And besides, in the QS rankings, Amrita has been rated as among the best universities in the world, consistently, over the years.

It’s interesting to see why the university has continually been grabbing the limelight since its inception eighteen years ago, and why it has emerged as one of the most sought-after institutions within what certainly is a very short span of time.

In addition to the two that are coming up in Faridabad and Amravati, six campuses, each in a different setting, now comprise Amrita University.

One of them – the headquarters in Coimbatore - is backdropped against the stately hills of the Western range. While, the mirror-still backwaters of Kollam surround the campus at Amritapuri. The campus at Mysuru perches itself on the foothills of the Chamundi hills. And those at Kochi, Chennai and Bengaluru, are framed by the silhouetted skylines of these cities in the distant horizon.

But if you step inside these campuses and peer into the minds of the people who work, teach and learn here, there is something that is distinctly common running through all of them. This is a set of values, beliefs, and practices, all at once.
