SMVDU has been consistently evaluated in the B.Arch category by the NIRF rankings for three consecutive years, reflecting its performance among architecture programs nationally. The data below outlines its specific rank positions and trends over the years 2022, 2023, and 2024, providing an objective view of its placement within the field.
SMVDU - NIRF B.Arch Rankings Overview
In the NIRF rankings for the B.Arch category, SMVDU secured a #26 position in both NIRF-2022 and NIRF-2023, indicating stable performance during this period. In NIRF-2024, the college was ranked #31, showing a shift of five places from the previous year. This demonstrates that while the college maintained its position for two years, there was a decrease in its rank in the most recent cycle. These rankings are derived solely from the official NIRF assessments for the Bachelor of Architecture, which serve as a standardized benchmark for architectural education institutes.
SMVDU - Three-Year Ranking Pattern
An analysis of the past three years showcases a period of ranking consistency followed by a change. In 2022, SMVDU was ranked #26 in the B.Arch category by the NIRF, an achievement it replicated in 2023. The identical rank in consecutive years suggests steady outcomes across the NIRF evaluation parameters during this period. However, in 2024, the institution moved to the #31 position, indicating a relative decline in its national standing among B.Arch programs compared to its previous performance. This movement underscores a shift in either the college’s performance metrics or increased competition within the B.Arch segment as reflected by the NIRF framework.
SMVDU - Stability and Change in Architecture Rankings
Over the three-year data period, SMVDU’s ranking reflects both stability and a recent transition within the architectural education landscape. The two-year continuity at #26 (NIRF-2022 and NIRF-2023) suggests a period where the institution met consistent performance criteria under the NIRF’s B.Arch evaluation. The transition to #31 in NIRF-2024 marks a notable change, highlighting the importance of monitoring such trends for stakeholders interested in the comparative performance of architecture colleges. Factors contributing to this shift are not elaborated in the present data, but the rankings provide a transparent, reliable point of reference for the college’s standing in the field.
