Inside Jawaharlal Nehru University's largest research partnership: University of Delhi

Behind Jawaharlal Nehru University's research output sits a defining relationship: 646 co-authored works with University of Delhi (India) in the five years to 2025, the university's single largest collaboration.

It anchors an unusually connected research base: 662 collaborating institutions across 63 countries, producing 10,120 joint works over the window, with international co-authors on 17% of output.

The collaborative work travels: its field-weighted citation impact stands at 2.34, where the world average is 1.0.
