MNIT Jaipur's latest NIRF Engineering rank is 42, in the 2025 edition. That places it just outside the national top 40 for engineering (NIRF India Rankings 2025). MNIT Jaipur also holds NIRF ID IR-O-U-0410. It carries a rank in six separate NIRF 2025 categories, not one single all-purpose rank. A student comparing MNIT Jaipur to another college should use the category that matches the programme they are applying to. The Engineering rank and the Overall rank measure different, wider sets of institutions.

Is MNIT Jaipur's Architecture ranking better than its Engineering ranking? Yes, MNIT Jaipur's Architecture and Planning rank of 12 in NIRF 2025 is considerably stronger than its Engineering rank of 42. NIRF ranks a smaller, more specialised pool of institutions in the Architecture and Planning category.
MNIT Jaipur is an Institute of National Importance under the National Institutes of Technology Act, 2007. That status was conferred on 15 August 2007 (mnit.ac.in, About MNIT). It became a full-fledged National Institute of Technology on 26 June 2002, having started in 1963 as the Malaviya Regional Engineering College. Its engineering programmes hold NBA (National Board of Accreditation) accreditation on a per-programme basis. This is the standard accreditation model for NITs, distinct from an institution-wide NAAC grade used by many state and private universities.
Does MNIT Jaipur have a NAAC grade? As an Institute of National Importance, MNIT Jaipur's accreditation runs through NBA at the individual-programme level, not an institution-wide NAAC grade. Check the current NBA-accredited programme list on the institute's own site for a specific branch's live status.
MNIT Jaipur does not appear in the current published QS World University Rankings or QS Asia Rankings as a separately ranked institute. This is a genuine gap in QS's own published list, not a figure this page estimates. Most Indian NITs outside the top-ranked few sit outside the QS list too, since QS ranks a much smaller global set than NIRF's India-wide list. A candidate weighing MNIT Jaipur against a QS-ranked institute should compare NIRF ranks instead, since that is the list MNIT Jaipur is actually part of.
Does MNIT Jaipur have a QS World Ranking? No, MNIT Jaipur does not currently appear in the published QS World University Rankings. Its most comparable, verifiable ranking is its NIRF Engineering rank of 42.
Beyond NIRF, MNIT Jaipur's Institute of National Importance status and its NIT-system membership are the primary formal recognitions cited across the institute's own materials. No separate Times Higher Education world ranking for MNIT Jaipur specifically was found as a currently published figure. This page does not state one as fact where the institute itself does not publish it.
NIRF ranks MNIT Jaipur separately by discipline, not with one single figure for every course. Its Engineering rank, 42, covers the B.Tech and M.Tech programmes together, since NIRF's Engineering category does not split by individual branch. Architecture and Planning, covering the B.Arch and M.Plan programmes, ranks 12, MNIT Jaipur's strongest category. The Department of Management Studies MBA sits under the separate Management category, at rank 62. A candidate should match the NIRF category to the actual programme they are applying to, not read the Engineering rank as covering the MBA or B.Arch.
Does the MNIT Jaipur NIRF Engineering rank cover the B.Arch programme too? No, B.Arch falls under NIRF's separate Architecture and Planning category, ranked 12, not the Engineering category ranked 42.
MNIT Jaipur's NIRF Engineering rank of 42 sits in the middle of the NIT system, behind the oldest, largest NITs but ahead of several newer or smaller ones. Comparing MNIT Jaipur's NIRF 2025 Engineering rank against the ranks of peer NITs on nirfindia.org shows where it stands.

Which NITs rank closest to MNIT Jaipur in NIRF Engineering 2025? VNIT Nagpur, at rank 44, is MNIT Jaipur's closest-ranked peer NIT. NIT Durgapur (49) and NIT Silchar (50) follow just behind.
MNIT Jaipur has held a rank inside the NIRF Engineering top-50 across recent cycles, settling at 42 in 2025. NIRF re-ranks every institute each year against a changing peer set. A small year-to-year shift in rank reflects the whole cohort's movement, not necessarily a change in MNIT Jaipur's own metrics. A candidate comparing across years should check each year's own published list, rather than assume a straight upward or downward trend from a single data point.
