Ayesha's Review On UPES, Dehradun

Upseat 2015, It was rank based result combining boards. I opted this college because it's the only university in Asia which provides degree in the integrated course of b.tech and LLB (cyberlaw).

The course curriculum is quite apt. It not only focuses on the theory but also on practical and research work. We only study the subjects which are related to our field. The college has a separate committee which provides a platform to students to showcase their technical skills.

Yes my college provides internship. Since I am only in 2nd year so don't know much about the process. Companies like dell, Microsoft etc come for the internship.

It has 100% placement record. The university is in collaboration with IBM for the CS courses and hence no issues of placement. Many companies come for the placement. Not only the IT or CS but also the non CS. The average package lies between 4-5 lakhs.

The college has various events including technical and cultural events. It has a cultural fest named as URJA and provides a platform for the students to showcase there hidden talents and also includes fun games and cultural night. Next it has technical fests like YUGMAK which has technical events. Other than this several events, orientation, programs are regularly held.

The gender ratio is 3:1 approx. There is huge diversity including the students from all over the country and even outside the country. There is a separate society which deals with the disciplinary matters of students even outside the college. There are extra preventive measures for the female students . The college provides counselling sessions in this matter.

We have 2 exams every semester. Mid semester and end semester. Mid semester are held in the mid semester whereas end semester at the end , they are the final exams. Practicals are held on the basis of CCE pattern. Evaluation is also done on the basis of CCE. But sometimes it becomes hectic for the students as there are back to back exams without any leave and students get drained out.

I had to attend a counselling session which was based on the rank. Then I had to fill a form stating my course options and had to pay a certain amount of fee. Then I got my registration details like the date, fee structure etc. Then I had to attend a registration session which was held at college itself.

The faculty is highly educated and have huge amount of knowledge. They are very helpful. They not only provide the knowledge about the subject but also it's benifits and uses in the near future. They are always ready for any doubts or issues related to course or even outside the course.
