Great experience-UPES, Dehradun

The college is expensive as per the placements provided worth the fees they are charging. Also, need to work on its management system.

The curriculum was well organized and developed accordingly. They even provided labs with IBM instruments for telecommunications experiments. The lab sessions were well elaborated and explained. An industrial visit was also organized in the third year to the IBM data center in Bangalore.

The placements of the college are average frankly. The fees structure is too high as compared to the placement they give. They did prepare students for placement drive through extra classes. The companies that visited are LTI, dell, ByJus, Nagaro, Wipro, etc. The highest package offered was only 12 LPA.

The cultural fest is Uurja and the technical fest is Ignite. The fests are not that good frankly. They are not celebrated on a large scale as other colleges do. Participation is also low. The budget of the fest is kept low. The fest can be improved on a very large scale.

The fees structure is very expensive. My fees in the first semester were 1.30 lacs which kept on increasing 10% every semester. In the final semester, the fees paid were around 1.50 lacs. Apart from this, they take several other charges like 20 thousand industrial visits, 20 thousand for personality development classes, etc. There is transparency in the structure.

No, The scholarship is provided to the students who score 9.8 CGPA in the semester exams for the next semester.

The gender ratio for boys to girls is usually 10:1. The number of girls is low. There are many societies for sports, MUN, etc. The events are organized from time to time. They are really fun. Though not a lot of importance is given to them but still who take interest can gain a lot.

Yes, The hostel is tripe sharing with common washrooms. Each floor has around 10 rooms and 2 washrooms. That's why the queues are long, though they are kept neat and clean. The cost for a year is around 130000 Rs.

The alumni network is there. Various alumni meet are organized in various cities like Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi. It is a very good way to interact with all the seniors and the faculty.

I got admission through the entrance exam held by the college. You can also get admission through JEE mains and boards marks. I opted for B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering with a specialization in Telecom Informatics. I really liked the lush green campus and so many specializations available.

The faculty of the college was very helpful. They used to clear doubts of the students. They took extra classes to cover up extra important topics and tried to provide maximum knowledge to the students. The faculty was friendly so that students can easily share their doubts and get them clarified.
