UPES, B.Tech(Computer Science)+ Llb(With Specialization In Cyber Laws)

Reviewed on Sep 15, 2015

Entrance Preview

Entrance exam name UPESEAT, AIR rank - 10783 I have interest in both law and computer science technology UPES is the only university in INDIA which offer a 6 year integrated B.Tech LLB course so, I choose UPES.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Faculty is very nice and much experienced but I am a little bit dissatisfied with the course Curriculum we have to study Physics, Chemistry both semester in the first year and Mathematics for 3 semesters. I don't know the reason behind studying PCM for Techno-Lawyers for this long period of time for 1 semester Physics and chemistry is okay and maths is okay for 2 semesters but Physics and Chemistry for the whole year and Mathematics for 1.5 years is useless.

Internships Opportunities

Still now, there is no internship experience as I have passed just 2-3 months of my college life but I think so that It'll be so nice and knowledgeable.

Placement Experience

Placements are good in UPES. UPES is specialized university for Petroleum engineering but it has a good placement record in both petroleum and non petroleum branches. Maximum package offered to a petroleum student is around 25 laks and to a non-petroleum student is 17 lakhs.

College Events

4.5

URJA and IGNITE are the two biggest events/fests of the university, URJA is the cultural fest and IGNITE is the technical one.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Campus hostal is good (4/5 stars) mess food is okay, (3/5 stars)fees is high as per the facilities. (2.5/5 stars) there are more that 60-70 private hostels in dehradun for UPES students yearly charges starts from 75,000 per year to 1,60,000 per year including accommodation, food, transport facility.

Fees and Financial Aid

UPES has tie up with SBI, Oriental bank of commerce and some other govt. as well as private banks for study loans.

Campus Life

4.5

Gender ratio is very unequal there is one female after 2.5-3 males campus lige the campus is nearly 15 kms. away from the dehradun city in the lap of mountains. There are forests all around. There is no franchise on that 25 acres of land atleast there should be one Macdi or KFC. Extra curricular activities are in plenty in UPES. There are a lot of student chapters and societies in UPES including ACM, CSI, SPE etc. which provide a very good platform to the students to show their talent and to work for the society.UPES has football, basketball, volleyball teams which performed very well at National levels too.

Alumni/Alumna

Some Senior are very rude but most are quite good.

I took admission here with doubts but it's total value for money

Likes

What I liked the most about RIT is that they actually focus on placements and skill building from the first year itselfg
Fees is affordable as compared to other private colleges in dehradun
The campus is clean and focus on hygiene

Dislikes

The college is strict about 75% attendance
Some process like leave approval could be made digital

Placement Experience:

They start preparing you for the placements from first semester itself by providing you pdp sessions, language sessions and certifications. The highest package for my batch was 10 LPA in Intello labs and average goes around 6.5 LPA

A Well-Rounded B.Tech Journey with Good Infrastructure, Supportive Faculty, and Growing Career Opportunities

Likes

Faculty members are generally qualified and approachable, and students can seek help with academics and projects.
students should supplement the university curriculum with industry certifications, coding practice, internships, GitHub projects and real-world development work.
There are cultural events, technical activities, clubs, sports and other extracurricular activities. Hostel students can participate fairly actively in campus events.

Dislikes

The main improvement I'd look for would be more advanced, industry-standard laboratory equipment and greater practical exposure.
I couldn't find a reliable current official university figure for the overall girls-to-boys ratio.
The ratio can also differ substantially between CSE, other engineering branches and the university as a whole.

Placement Experience:

Haridwar University provides regular campus-placement opportunities across IT, core engineering and other sectors. The university reports strong overall placement activity, but programme-wise salary and placement data are limited publicly, so students should ask for CSE-specific statistics before admission.

Likes

I like the college curriculum and study materials and teaching style of the teachers . Some teachers are impressive and their teaching style is too good .
Campus life is not much engaging but we usually spent our time in studying only . Also for attendance there is not much more criteria but some teachers are very strict in taking the attendance.
Faculties are full of experience and knowledge. They are approachable online and offline too but after the class.

Dislikes

I don't like the placement system in my college because the students studying in 2nd year do not get any exposure of placement . There is placement cell in our college but not very active .
Infrastructure is good but it should be spread in a more big acres . My wish was to get into IIT Kharagpur that's why I am asking for big campus .
Overall curriculum and research based approach of the campus is good. They just give projects to the seniors and seniors work is to dictate us about the project and helps us in building different types of project.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The main aspects that motivates me to choose this college is the GFTI'S colleges . Because my father suggest me that govt. Colleges seeks more companies that's why I choose this college . But truth is totally opposite from the reality. Real world application based projects is just given by the teachers in every semester but we students copy it and give it to them from the gpt. College timing should be more less we have to study from 10 am to 5 p.m. Timings of exams are of 3 hrs only in semester . Difficulty level is moderate.
