UPES B.Tech Biotechnology: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The biotech program offers two batches of around 30 students each, ensuring a good faculty-to-student ratio. While faculty members are generally accessible, higher-ranking ones may be less so. The academic year includes two exams: a mid-semester exam contributing 20% and an end-semester exam contributing 50% to the final grade. Faculty numbers are adequate despite a growing student population. Placement opportunities are strong, with top companies like Cipla, Hyundai, and Boeing recruiting graduates.

The highest salary package offered is 50 lakhs, and the average is 7-8 lakhs. Students can also intern with companies such as DELL and IBM, which often lead to pre-placement offers. Successful placements largely depend on student performance throughout the course, with faculty support available for job-seeking students. Confirming a course seat requires a 1 lakh INR upfront payment, part of the first semester's 2.1 lakh INR fee. The first-year fee totals 4.2 lakh INR, and the entire four-year course costs 19 lakh INR.

While there are scholarships based on 12th-grade performance, they are extremely limited.
