   How it compares

   Among India’s 475 universities, this is one of the country’s national-level technical institutes rather than a general university. Its strongest draw is the technical focus and its status as an institute of national importance, so it makes more sense for students seeking engineering or related study than for someone looking for a broad mixed-subject university.
