India's Top T-Schools by Dataquest (2008)

The previous story was about the rankings by Outlook magazine and now Dataquest has released its own list.

The main highlights are:

• IIT Kharagpur retains its #1 position, with the next 5 places also taken by IITs
• NSIT Delhi re-entered the Top 10 club, jumping 13 ranks
• NIT Calicut jumps up six rungs to #9 and Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of ICT jumps up ten rungs to #12
• Average maximum salary goes up by nearly 25% to reach Rs 7.4 lakh
• Worrying signs on the research and pure academic fronts? While average number of research papers during the year reduced marginally (57 to >55), the number of students pursuing PhD fell from 132 to 101 leading to lesser no of doctorates awarded8, down from 37
• Is the global slowdown impacting IT/BPO recruitments? May be. While average number of IT/BPO companies visiting campuses came down from 39 to 30, average number of students placed in these companies increased from 216 to 260
