JMI achieves A++ grade from NAAC; secures 3.61 CGPA

This was the second cycle of assessment by NAAC which gave 'A' rank to the university in the first cycle in 2015. The university got a score of 3.61 by NAAC in the current cycle, improving it from 3.09 scored in the 2015 assessment cycle.

Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) has been accredited with A++ grade by the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NACC), as per the official statement released by the University. It is the highest grade awarded by the coveted NAAC to an institution based on various parameters, including research, infrastructure, learning resources, evaluation, innovation and governance by following a stringent assessment method. The ranking comes after a NAAC peer team review was conducted between December 6-8, 2021.
Elated over the development, JMI Vice-Chancellor Prof. Najma Akhtar said, "This milestone for the university reflects the sheer hard work and untiring effort by all members of the university including the teachers, non-teaching staff, students and alumni. I personally extend my deep gratitude to all of them and hope that we will not only maintain this grading in the future but will also keep on working hard to improve our performance in academic, research and other areas".

Akhtar further said that she ensured that the morale of the students wasn't affected during the coronavirus pandemic and even when the university became the epicentre of protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA). "There cannot be any reason and magic. One has to make people realise that they have potential. When the NAAC team came, everyone was prepared. It was not a one-day thing, it is a five-year affair (after the first cycle). We worked hard and it is a team effort," Akhtar said.
