COEPTU ranks 77th
As per the results of NIRF 2024 ranking College of Engineering Pune Technological University (CoEPTU) stood 77th amongst the top engineering institutions in the country with a total score of 47.89 on the scale of 100. Last year, it was ranked 73rd with a total score of 46.89.
The COEPTU had submitted the Institutional Information for NIRF 2024 for the engineering category.
Since the number of participating institutes is increasing every following year, in spite of the rise in marks in almost all the parameters (as compared to the previous year’s marks) COEP’s ranking has descended this year.
“Out of the five institutions, we are one of the ‘state-funded’ institutions to make it in the list of Top 100, competing with all other institutions which are either centrally funded IITs, NITs, universities or institutes of eminence and are ranked higher than COEP Tech in the current list,” read a statement by the university.
