No, never.
24 lakhs for an undergraduate degree is insane. If UPES is charging such amount of money for education alone, please refrain at all cost.
I’ll keep this short, no doubt UPES is a good university in terms of facility, infrastructure and not to miss aesthetics (scenic beauty) but but but it has degraded in front of my eyes in in 4 years of stay. From merely 8 branches in Computer Science, it grew to more than 12 branches with capacity increased for all branches.
Placement is fine, I won’t thrash right away but keeping in eye the number of students, quality of placements isn’t good and what pinches me till date is the amount I’ve paid for the degree, yes, the degree. Teaching is fine too, not too good, not too bad but when I came to Pune, got to know about the quality, placements and top of it, amount they spent for their entire undergraduate education shook me to the core. They didn’t study in fancy infrastructure college but in rest other things, they were far superior.
