80 Best universities for Multimedia in India

Updated: March 15, 2026

Ranking by academic field

Below is a list of best universities in India ranked based on their research performance in Multimedia. A graph of 126K citations received by 15.5K academic papers made by 80 universities in India was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.

Please note that our approach to subject rankings is based on scientific outputs and heavily biased on art-related topics towards institutions with computer science research profiles.
