NEW DELHI: Lovely Professional University has been ranked among the ‘Top 200 universities in the World’ in the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings 2021. LPU has achieved the position among Indian universities under the ‘Affordable and Clean Energy’ category. From India, 57 universities participated; 1,240 participated globally.
The third annual THE Impact Rankings assess universities against progress towards the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), providing a total of 18 rankings, one for each SDG as well as an overall table.
LPU is also ranked second in India (59th globally) in the ‘Decent Work and Economic Growth’ category, a parameter that measures universities’ economics research, their employment practices and the share of its students getting placements.
LPU has also been jointly ranked 1st in India on the parameter, ‘Partnership for the Goals’. The parameter looks at the broader ways in which universities support the SDGs through collaboration with other countries, promotion of best practices and publication of data.
Ashok Mittal, Chancellor LPU said: “It is a matter of great pride for us that we have debuted straight into the global top 200 list. Not many Indian universities in the past have featured in the top 200 list and we feel proud to bring this laurel to India.”
