AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) Delhi consistently holds the top rank among medical colleges in India, recognized for its academic excellence, world-class infrastructure, and advanced research. It is ranked No. 1 by the NIRF (National Institutional Ranking Framework) under the "Medical" category year after year.
Following AIIMS Delhi, several newer AIIMS institutions like AIIMS Bhopal, Jodhpur, Bhubaneswar, Rishikesh, Raipur, and Patna have gained prominence and are often ranked among the top 20 medical colleges in India. While these newer AIIMS are still developing in terms of infrastructure and research capabilities, they are rapidly improving and attracting top medical aspirants.
The rankings are based on parameters such as teaching quality, research output, graduation outcomes, infrastructure, and peer perception. As these institutions continue to grow, more AIIMS are expected to rise in national rankings, solidifying their role in shaping India’s future in medical education and healthcare.
