EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in India ranked based on their research performance in Earth science and Geophysics. A graph of 1.25M citations received by 92.6K academic papers made by 257 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.
