IIT Indore JEE Advanced Cutoff

IIT Indore offers a B.Tech. degree in a total of 5 different departments. Admission to these programs is done through the IIT JEE-Advanced examination which is conducted in the month of May every year.

JoSAA (Joint Seat Allocation Authority) controls the entire admission procedure. A total of 7 rounds of admissions and counseling take place each year.

The cutoff is released in the form of opening and closing ranks. It is further divided into categories and each category is further divided on the basis of gender. Usually, students with an All India Rank below 1000 get admission into CSE at IIT Indore.

CSE is the most sought after course among engineering aspirants. The lowest rank for getting admission in IIT Indore in 2019 was 9795 in Metallurgical Engineering and Materials Science.

Courses	2019 Closing Rank	2018 Closing Rank
Civil Engineering	7971	7207
Computer Science and Engineering	1067	1264
Electrical Engineering	3635	3417
Mechanical Engineering	5279	4905
Metallurgical Engineering and Materials Science	9795	8886

Students usually prefer other IITs like IIT Delhi, IIT Bombay, and IIT Kharagpur over IIT Indore and thus the cutoffs for these colleges are often much higher.

JEE Advanced Campus-wise cutoff 2019:

Courses	IIT Indore	IIT Mandi	IIT Hyderabad
Computer Science and Engineering	640-1020	1384-2563	203-613
Electrical Engineering	1868-3295	2564-4848	808-1774
Mechanical Engineering	3417-4801	5023-6242	1955-3284
Civil Engineering	5577-6508	7158-8004	3729-5596

As per the data presented above, it is quite evident that amongst the IITs mentioned, IIT Indore gives quite a good competition to IIT Hyderabad. There’s a significant difference between the Cut-Off required at IIT Mandi and IIT Indore.

IIT Indore JAM Cutoff

IIT Indore offers an M.Sc. degree in the following disciplines:

M.Sc. in Chemistry
M.Sc. in Mathematics
M.Sc. in Physics
M.Sc. in Astronomy
M.Sc. in Biotechnology

M.Sc. in Biotechnology is the most sought after course at IIT Indore and often records the highest cutoffs. Usually, only students with rank under 70 get to pursue M.Sc. in Biotechnology at IIT Indore.

Admission to one of these programs is done on the basis of the ranks secured by students in the IIT-JAM examination. Here is a comparison of cutoffs for admission into IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur and IIT Guwahati with IIT Indore.

Institute	M.Sc. Chemistry	M.Sc. Mathematics	M.Sc. Physics
IIT Kanpur	16-83	47-113	Nov-86
IIT Guwahati	111-232	81-242	79-262
IIT Indore	214-318	81-305	236-370

Based on the data given above, it is safe to say that although IIT Indore can give a cut-throat competition to IIT Guwahati in terms of minimum rank required for admission to M.Sc. in Mathematics.

Getting admission to the M.Sc. programs in IIT Indore is relatively easier than getting admission to IIT Delhi, Kanpur or even Guwahati.

IIT Indore Ranking 2020 in India and World

IIT Indore (IITI), established in 2009, has been ranked as the top engineering institute in the country. Despite being new, the institute has achieved a decent rank in most of the rank lists released by major Indian and International ranking agencies.

The Nation’s trustworthy agency NIRF ranks the institute at 13th place out of top 100 engineering institutes. According to Outlook-ICARE, it is ranked at 8th place just behind IIT Roorkee which is almost a century older than IIT Indore and at the 12th place among top 100 Universities of India. This shows the pace of improvement of IITI.

Not only nationally, IIT Indore has been ranked higher than the other top IITs like IIT Madras and IIT Bombay in Times Higher Education Rankings. The indore institute has made its remarkable appearance in QS Asian University Rankings too.

IIT Indore couldn’t find a place in the rankings released by ranking agencies during the initial years after its establishment. But since the last few years it has worked well on improving its rankings. This improvement of IIT Indore has been majorly credited to its experienced faculty, excellent placements and good infrastructure.

NIRF	2019	13 among Engineering colleges
	2018	14 among Engineering colleges
	2017	15 among Engineering colleges
	2016	16 among Engineering colleges

IIT Indore has consistently been improving it’s NIRF with each passing year. The improvement in rankings is a manifestation of the fact that IIT Indore is one of the best engineering colleges in India. This speaks volumes about the efforts the IIT Indore administration, faculty and students have been putting in.

IIT Indore has been improving in its ratings in the several parameters that NIRF takes into account while assigning ranks to colleges. A Core Committee set up by MHRD draws conclusions from the broad parameters for ranking various universities and institutions. The parameters broadly cover: teaching, learning and resources; research and professional practices, graduation outcomes, outreach and inclusivity and perception.

The ratings for the year 2019 in each of the parameters is given below in the graphical form:

IIT Indore Ranking - Outlook ICARE

Rather than blindly comparing institutions against one another, Outlook-ICARE India University Rankings 2019 is a fair assessment based on how institutions within the same category perform against each other in a variety of metrics, thus reflecting the strengths and weaknesses of a institution in each domain.

“IITI is the 8th best engineering Institute in the country and 12th best Indian University in general, as per Outlook-ICARE Reports.”

The Rankings evaluate institutions based on parameters such as Faculty Student Ratio (FSR), Faculty with Ph.D. (FWP), Papers Per Faculty (PPF), Citations Per Paper (CPP) and Inclusiveness & Diversity (ID). Institutions are awarded an overall rank depending on the number of points achieved through the evaluation, and their key strengths in specific parameters are displayed. This has been designed with valuable feedback from the industry.
