Mysuru: The over-a-century-old University of Mysore (UoM) has secured the 247th position among universities in South Asian countries in the QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) World University Rankings. It has also been ranked first among State-run Universities in Karnataka, according to a press release issued by the UoM Vice-Chancellor.
The University said, its performance was particularly noteworthy given several challenges, including a shortage of permanent teaching faculty.
The recognition was attributed to its academic standards, student-teacher ratio, international Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) with reputed foreign Universities and academic institutions, employer reputation, research publications, quality of teaching & research and employment generation.
The University thanked its teaching and non-teaching staff, Syndicate members, researchers, students and others associated with the institution for contributing to the achievement, the release added.
