I am a student of UPES Dehradun and I can say that is a great University. It has a vibrant student culture and offers a lot of academic and creative freedom to students.
- The best thing about the university is that they have a tech-focus in all of their disciplines, which really helps to work on your skills, and be a cut above others. Being tech-literate is absolutely essential in today’s market. UPES constantly evolves its curriculum to keep up with the times. So unlike a lot of colleges, you won’t find an outdated curriculum that doesn’t help you.
- Another fascinating feature of the university is that it is industry-aligned. This creates an atmosphere where you’re trained by companies and may end up working for. Hence, the curriculum is literally designed to cater to companies’ requirements. Add to that the fact that they have partnerships with many industry leaders like BOSCH, Oracle, TATA, and more, which is a gateway to great internships and placements.
- The university has qualified faculty with good credentials. They have added many new schools that are highly in demand, like the School of Modern Media and School of Smart Agriculture. These new schools are addressing the problems of specialisations that a lot of school graduates are facing. Their Engineering curriculum is also unique in the sense that they offer an additional specialisation in tech like Blockchain, ML, AI, IoT, and Data analysis, in their courses. This is called Engineering +.
