First University to receive Diamond Rating in all Primary Categories.
A unique
rating system, QS I-GAUGE brings together the global expertise, experience and
reputation of UK based QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) and captures the essence of
the dynamic Indian higher education system and conforms to international
standards and best practices. Also, it further inculcates deep local knowledge
of luminaries from higher education in India. The QS-IGAUGE evaluates a higher
educational institution on seven parameters. The parameters deal with Teaching
and Learning, Faculty Quality, Facilities, Employability, Social
Responsibility, Student Diversity, and Innovation. Chandigarh University in 2020 has been
bestowed upon with the ‘Diamond’ Rating in all these categories by the QS
I·GAUGE.
The
university’s achievement is commendable and unique in more than one ways as
Chandigarh University has become the first university to earn Diamond Rating in
all the Primary Categories. Apart from it, Chandigarh University has been
performing significantly well in the region as well. While being the first to
receive the Diamond rating in all the primary categories, Chandigarh University
has also become the first university in Punjab to receive the honor.
Furthermore,
Chandigarh University has again made its mark in the field of innovation in
higher education. In this year’s QS-IGAUGE Ratings, CU is the one of the only
two universities to receive Diamond rating in Innovation. Riding on the back of
their consistency in keeping up the educational standards, CU has been ranked amongst
the Top 20 Universities in India to receive an Overall Diamond Rating.
After
having been ranked amongst top higher educational institutions under national
surveys or by higher educational bodies, Chandigarh University has earned
another major ratings and recognition within a month of the commencement of the
