For applying for admission to IIPE; a student after qualifying for the JEE Advanced exam has to manually apply on the IIPE website (www.iipe.ac.in) and follow the instructions as stated. Selection criteria for reservations are the same as per JoSAA rules. Admission is quite smooth, fair and peaceful without any ambiguities!!!

To be honest, Oil and Gas Industry is something that gives exposure to some of the toughest challenges in life, so was I keen into getting this course. IIPE was very warm it helped me out in overcoming all the challenges. Faculty Student ratio was another salient feature of IIPE because it provided one-to-one interaction and a healthy atmosphere to nourish students' skillsets. Every faculty of IIPE are PhD holders (mostly from an IIT) in some of the finest specializations equipped with wholesome knowledge to provide a fine education to the students. Exams are scheduled very properly and accurately in a phased manner, and the difficulty of the paper is quite commendable.

Several companies belonging to both core and IT sector have given Internship opportunities to students of IIPE. Some of them are ONGC, IOCL, HPCL Saint Gobain, etc from the core sector, while SG Analytics, etc from the IT sector.

From the 7th semester, students become eligible for campus placements. Very excellent companies pertaining to core sectors like ONGC, HPCL, GAIL, and OIL have visited IIPE for campus recruitment drives in the respective branches. Several IT and Analytics companies like SG Analytics, EXL Analytics, and Infosys have visited IIPE for campus drives. The number of offers made is higher than the total number of students! In the previous batch(2018-2022), almost the whole of the batch was placed except for a few going for higher studies/ personal plans.

The best thing about the institute is that the tuition fee is lesser as compared to IITs. So IIPE has an edge in this case. Scholarships are availed based upon the respective credibility of the student with his/her clause at the Scholarship committee of IIPE.

Shasvat is the annual fest held by IIPE. Generally, it is held in the month of March every year. Recently there have not been any Cultural fests owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. The library of IIPE is really great to have some of the finest collections of books pertaining to the particular industry and many more. The classrooms of IIPE are set up with centralized Air Conditioning with modern classroom amenities. Sports and Extra Curricular activities are given proper heed as well along with academics hence it maintains a proper balance. There are several clubs for students run by the students like Literary and Communication Club(LITCOM), E-Cell, and many more!

Both AC and non-AC rooms are provided by the Institute. Students can choose the room of their choice. The hostel rooms seem pretty fine and are tidy having all the necessary requirements like a Study table and a chair, Wifi, etc! The mess menu is also a splendid one that can easily satisfy the interests of individuals coming from any part of India. The registration process for Hostel is via IIPE Erp and is pretty smooth and easy!
