UPES, B.Tech, Upstream & Applied Petroleum Engineering

Remarks

I choose this college because of its location and its Prestigious reputation. The University is located amidst the picturesque Himalayas in Dehradun. The location great as the university is secluded and spacious. In winters, the place becomes even more beautiful and becomes a perfect setting to study with your warm tea. The university is secluded from the city making it free from the hustle-bustle and commotion.

Course Curriculum Overview

The faculty at UPES is the most helpful bunch of educators I have ever come across. The professors understand that most of us are away from our homes and tend to get homesick often. And rarely any other universities in India take the effort of providing its students with industrial exposure. However, UPES gives students industrial exposure in the form of industry visits, guest lectures.

Class Size: 43Course Fees: INR 1400000 per year

Placement Experience

Many people on this thread might not know that UPES is the only and the first university in the nation to be awarded QS 5 stars for employability. UPES has a fantastic placement cell with companies like HCL, IBM, TCS and many more that hire multiple students every year. The students also get offered an excellent salary package and a reputable position in the company.

College Events

3.5

The elected candidates take you out for trips for FREE OF COST ! And they do small programs quite often so u keep getting entertained though it's all done for the votes but you can still visit their small events for fun !
Even if you are a student husteling for side by jobs or preparing for any exam you can look forward to this college , no worries for 75% attendence
it's super affordable, completed my entire bcom for ₹5,000

Dislikes

Poor infrastructure and dirty environment, it's a very old government college they have not improved it's infrastructure it is it used be years ago though the library is very clean and well build looks entirely different from the college .
I find the quality of education is quite weak here maybe because I have not attended many lectures but it's my personal opinion

Course Curriculum Overview:

I wanted a degree so I can easily side by prepare for some other stuff as well . There's no attendance pressure but just submit your assignment and time n appear for exam which is the bare minimum . It was convenient for me
