What Students Say

Likes

Campus life is amazing and very interactive
Activities & Events conducted are happening

Dislikes

A bit rigid placement process with less possibility of sitting in core companies

Course Curriculum Overview

I chose this MBA program for its industry-focused curriculum, live projects, and internships. Exams are moderate and well spaced. More industry workshops and practical training would further improve learning.

Class Size: 90Course Fees: INR 2000000 per year

Internships Opportunities

The college offers internships in companies like KPMG, Accenture, and ITC across all domains and specialisations. Students also work on live projects, research papers, and business focussed assignments.

Placement Experience

Placements are decent, with an average package of 8-10 LPA. Top recruiters include KPMG, Accenture, Amazon, and ITC. Most students get placed with competitive salary packages, & internships help improve employability.

Fees and Financial Aid

The total fees is 20 Lakhs. They offer various scholarships to students depending on merit, girl child, alumni, etc. The fees are different for different MBA programs, ranging from 16 lakhs to 22 lakhs.

Campus Life

Campus life is vibrant with cultural fests, clubs, and sports activities throughout the year. The library is well stocked, and classrooms are decent, and student clubs provide excellent opportunities for learning & networking.

Admission

I chose UPES due to its value for money (scholarships), industry-oriented curriculum, and decent placement prospects. The admission process was smooth and based on GD/PI performance and entrance exam scores.

Faculty

The faculty are good, well-read, and helpful. The curriculum is relevant and helps students gain industry exposure. Semester exams are moderately difficult, and the pass percentage is generally high for general students.

Interview Experience

The interview was held after the results of different competitive exams were released. The selection was basis the minimum criteria for selection plus the student's performance in the personal interview round.

Night Life

Campus & hostel timings are regulated, with some restrictions for hostel residents. Many students stay in off-campus accommodations for greater flexibility. Cafeterias are popular hangout spots, and the locality is safe & student friendly.

I came to RIT Roorkee from Bihar for my MBA and I want to write this review specifically for students from Bihar and UP

Likes

The campus environment is good and you get students from different places, so you get a chance to interact with people outside your home state.
Faculty support can be good, especially when you are regular with your studies and approach them when you need help.
For parents from Bihar, having accommodation within/around the campus can make the transition easier.

Dislikes

Hostel and college rules can feel strict for students who want a lot of freedom.
You will need to put in your own effort for coding, communication skills, internships and other career preparation. The college alone cannot guarantee a good career.
The environment is fairly structured, which can be helpful if you want to stay focused on your studies.

Placement Experience:

The placement opportunities at Roorkee Institute of Technology are quite diverse, with a dedicated Training and Placement Cell that supports students through resume building, mock interviews, career guidance and recruitment drives. According to the institute’s current placement information, the 2026 batch has recorded placements across different sectors, with an average package of around ₹8 LPA and the highest package of ₹22 LPA. The institute also lists recruiters such as Cognizant, Finastra, Sopra Steria, KPMG, EY and Voltas.

Distance Learning Arm of UPES

Admission:

I applied for the college by filling in the detailed application form on the official website. I give the CAT exam but since I didn't got good score and I also had to continue my job I opted for a postgraduate diploma program from this university. UPES is a popular University in Uttarakhand and its distance learning arm offers variety of options in the diploma programme. After approval of my application I was asked to complete the admission formalities post which I got the admission in the program.

Best Management Institute with Affordable Fees

Remarks:

Student life as an MBA aspirant went so good with the faculty as most of them were my super seniors and with friends, I never missed my home. I did though, but in a very short period of time, they became my 2nd family. Along with this, the college had a good reputation with popular brands and organization hence, clear our path in achieving good placement with a better salary.
