The performance of the Indian higher educational institutions (HEIs) in the Shanghai Ranking’s Global Ranking of Academic Subjects (GRAS) 2022 in engineering and science confirms that engineering and natural sciences constitute most of the country’s research base. In medical sciences, it registers only a middling level of performance. In social sciences and life sciences, there is hardly any presence. A matter of concern is that in the recent past, India’s presence in GRAS has declined.

The performance of the Indian higher educational institutions (HEIs) in the Shanghai Ranking’s Global Ranking of Academic Subjects (GRAS) 2022 in engineering and science confirms that engineering and natural sciences constitute most of the country’s research base. In medical sciences, it registers only a middling level of performance. In social sciences and life sciences, there is hardly any presence. A matter of concern is that in the recent past, India’s presence in GRAS has declined.
