The Kerala Institutional Ranking Framework (KIRF) is a dynamic initiative launched by the Government of Kerala to evaluate and rank higher education institutions across the state. Its primary goal is to enhance the quality of education by assessing institutions on various dimensions such as academic standards, research output, infrastructure, and student engagement.
Through a transparent and systematic evaluation process, KIRF enables institutions to recognize their strengths and identify areas requiring improvement, thereby fostering a continuous culture of excellence in higher education.
KIRF assesses institutions based on the following key parameters:
- Teaching, Learning, and Resources (TLR)
- Research and Professional Practices (RP)
- Graduation Outcomes (GO)
- Outreach and Inclusivity (OI)
- Perception (PR)
