UPES offers a structured admission process through the UPESEAT or JEE Mains, with counselling sessions in Delhi or Kolkata for ranks between 1200 and 3780. Candidates need to bring essential documents and a Rs. 1 lakh Demand Draft for counselling. Chemical Engineering, especially with a specialization in Refining and Petrochemicals, is highly sought after due to excellent career prospects. The faculty is well-qualified, many with advanced degrees from prestigious institutions, offering robust academic support and industry insight, though teaching skills vary.

Assessments include midterms (20%), end terms (30%), and internal evaluations (50%), supplemented by online learning resources. UPES's fee structure is considered expensive at approximately Rs. 5.5 lakhs per year for B.Tech, totaling Rs. 15,28,000 over the course duration. Despite high costs, fees are justified by academic quality and facilities, with payments accepted via NEFT, Paytm, or Netbanking. The college has a 90% placement rate, with top packages reaching 36 LPA in 2023 and average packages between 4-6 LPA.

Major recruiters include Schlumberger, Tata Power, and Deloitte. However, some concerns exist about job opportunities not always matching expectations.
