Explanation

The NIRF ranks institutions on teaching, learning and resources, graduation outcomes, outreach and inclusivity, and perception.

Statement 1 teaching, learning and resources captures the core academic inputs.

Statement 2 graduation outcomes measures how well students complete and progress.

Statement 3 outreach and inclusivity rewards diversity and regional reach.

Statement 4 peer perception reflects the standing an institution holds, while Statement 5 low carbon footprint is not a NIRF parameter.

The framework's fifth parameter is actually research and professional practice, alongside these.
