Entrance Preview

UPCEEE, this college was 75 years old and is very good. This is one of the best college in UP and also very reputed. The admission process was also good and useful.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The curriculum was exhaustive as per standards being followed. All aspects of an engineering degree were covered in 4 years of study. The computer science engineering degree had advanced theory and lab courses which were helpful in making students industry ready.

Internships Opportunities

Internship expertise was great and we were offered stipend for attending the same after 3rd year. Students were encouraged to have multiple internship as well to get them more familiariized with industry.

Placement Experience

Placement in some branches were around 300% mainly in chemical engineering. Other core branches also had good placements and around 80%. Package offer ranged from 1L to 1.5L in the year 1999.

College Events

3.5

Many events were celebrated like Odyssey, Techera. Odyssey is for cultural and Techera is technical symposium. Participation from all state colleges is there for these events

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure was not so expensive then and was around 2000 INR per semester so total of RS 4000 per year. Hostel fees were also RS 1000 per year. They also had scholarship scheme where top 25% students used to get their fees waived off.

Fees and Financial Aid

Loan was not much required as such. Scholarship was provided by institute to top 25% students and all their fees were waived off.

Campus Life

3.5

Sports activity was very good and annual sports day were conducted. There were teams for all sports and they participated in local/state events and championships.

Alumni/Alumna

Some of the alumni networks are very strong and happening. However there is no formal alumni network being driven by Institue. It will be great for a regular and formal Alumini network and drive different events.

Exam Structure

Exam structure is great and were very disciplined. There were 2 mid semester exams and 1 main semester exams. Lab tests were part of these. The theory exams were conducted in continuation and gets completed in 5/6 days. The exam schedule for complete semester was also published on the very first day of opening of semester.

Faculty

Faculty were also very experienced and knowledgeable in all branches. Some of the faculties were also young so as to bring in the mix of recent happenings and dynamism of the industry.

The looks of the campus are stunning. Open fields and everything
Events are hosted weekly, allowing everyone to participate and host
Extracurricular activities are well respected

Dislikes

In a secluded area of Lucknow. Hostel recommended

Placement Experience:

Our Placement packages are pretty low online. It's primarily because every course, High tier, Low tier gets an on campus placement. Computer science has a very good placement ratio. People who don't get placements ussually are the ones who didn't even apply. Around id say 80 percent people get placements and my plans are to look off campus.

My Experience at Sanskriti University: Campus Life, Academics and Opportunities

Likes

The course offers a good foundation in computer science and AI, with opportunities to improve technical skills.
Campus life provides opportunities to make friends, interact with classmates, and develop communication skills.

Dislikes

More practical sessions, live projects, and industry-oriented training are needed to improve student skills.
Placement preparation, internship opportunities, and career guidance could be improved for better job prospects.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose CSE (AI & ML) because of my interest in artificial intelligence and computer science. The curriculum provides basic technical knowledge for higher studies and career opportunities. More practical sessions, real-world projects, internships, and interactive teaching would improve learning. Internal assessments and semester exams require regular preparation, and difficulty varies by subject.

“A Good College for Learning and Growth”

Likes

Being a CSE student I get the opportunity to learn about computer science and improve my skills The college experience also helps me understand the importance of practical knowledge

Dislikes

The placement support could be improved especially by providing more opportunities for students to get internships and jobs in reputed companies

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course covers important subjects related to computer science and programming. It gives basic technical knowledge, but more practical learning is needed. Exams are held every semester, along with internal tests and practicals. Some subjects are easy, while others need more preparation. Overall, the course is good, but adding more real-world projects would help students learn better.

Slow administration and limited student support
High fees and unnecessary charges without proper facilities

Placement Experience:

What I heard before about the placement is totally different from what it is. I mean after spending more than 6lakh the average package of btech is around 4-5 LPA and the ratio is like 15-20% only. No big MNCs like Amazon Flipkart Deloitte or any other comes here.

My collage identity

This college is the 2nd best B.Tech college in UP after IIT and its placement is also good. One has to clear JEE for admission in HBTU in which one has to get rank in thousand for CSE .Those with lower rank can try the sports round once, in which there are more chances of losing admission in lower branch like FT OT. Since my rank was 10 lakh, my admission also happened in the sports round....Read More

All About the HBTU throught the lens of a first year student.

The other colleges which i applied to were IET Lucknow , IIIT Una , IIIT Dharwad and other lower IIITs . I choose over those since this colleges reputation and placements spoke for itself they had a very good track record regarding this course and many famous companies have been coming here repeatedly. The admission in this college is through HBTU e-counselling site which is a standalone website managed by HBTU itself . It has a registration fees of 2500 rupees is non refundable . There you fill your choice of courses . The branch is alloted according to your JEE MAINS rank and your preference list . After the seat allotment letter you have to visit college and there you will have to submit your documents then you will be given a provisional admission letter and you are given a choice to upgrade your branch to the courses you have selected in your preference list. The admission in this college for UG is given through only JEE MAINS for engineering and all other branches leaving Biotechonlogy and Biochemical where you can get admission through CUET....Read More
