What is new in this ranking?

This question is constantly raised even by CollegeKhabar team that what new we are adding to these surveys as compare to those done by big market research firms and magazines. This survey will be focused on most important aspect (our secondary research shows that students put placements in engineering colleges a way ahead than faculty - student ratio, infrastructure, intellectual capital etc.) a student seek in one college - Placements. Importance is also given on industrial relations, opportunity to work on good projects and quality of faculty members.

Quality of an institute can be judge by the perception of the students who are studying there or by opinions of Alumni. We tried to link this with this ranking. Recent Outlook survey put emphasis on perception of HR managers across industries we are trying to look in perception of students about these institutes.

Entire ranking process will be divided in two phases.

Phase 1: Opinion Poll - Popular choice

During this phase a survey will be run on CK giving opportunity to students to themselves rank the various institutes. Later these results were analyzed based on pre decided algorithm which gives authenticity to this survey. In all total more than 2000 entries we receive for opinion poll.

We have also announced separately the results of opinion poll.
