EduNewsPoint

Transparent Institutional Ranking System

EduNewsPoint is developed to come up with an alternate and more accurate institutional ranking system for the state of Uttarakhand. In present times, there are numerous institutions around the globe, and every institute claims to be the best, making it difficult for students to choose the right institution due to lack of relevant and trustable information. With this project, we set up a multilevel fusible transparent recommendation and ranking system module based on analysis of integrated datasets collected from students and staff members. The purpose is to ensure fulfillment of academic and co-curricular parameters for overall development and to assist students and teachers to predict the best fit institution with the help of data mining techniques.
