UPES Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

One don't have to go round and round as placements are done well within the time as most students here are placed by 7th semester. Those who left behind can try their luck on day zero as we have mass companies coming for a 3 day event and hire as many as they can.

Campus placements at UPEE starts every September as let's say I am in my final year now and our placements have started ever since. So, 60% of my class is already placed by now and fortunately I am one of those.

The placement rate of UPES School of Engineering is 80%. Now this is bigger than most as it is impossible to have that placements percentage with a batch of 1000 or more. The average placements are also between 7-9 LPA and highest so far has been of 42 LPA. Top names in the industry like Microsoft, Adobe and Amazon are some of our biggest recruiters.

Around 100 recruiters is what UPES has and it is not at all easy for us even after that. I am placed while I am in my 7th semester and most students were. Those who are left will get another shot in this semester which is our last semester. All IT companies while coming to Dehradun UPES is their first coice university for recruitment.

Campus placements begin as early as 3rd year end. Because in the 5th semester our training and all starts. Also, students with intenrships certificates get a better chance and first chance too. Roles and all depends on skills but whoever gets placements get in between 5-10 lakhs. Some brilliant students though have got placements worth 30-40 lakhs too but only a few.

Since CSW students as in UPES School of Computer Science students are 1200+, I think 60 percent students do get placements. Now the criteria is that students get a strong bandwith in placements that it is not at all easy to become a part of placements as students carrying back in 3rd year are not allowed to appear for any job interview at the university.

UPES students have to be ready in the last year as both the semester placements activities keeps on having its toll. Also, a student qualified for a placement can only appear for the interview on the companies that are offering a 2x paycheck as otherwise once the placements are done means done at UPES.

UPES has seen placements in range of 50 lakhs and more and that because of the stupendous tie-ups that our placement cell has seen. Our CSE entries batch size is of 1200 and out of which 600 were placed with an average salary of 18 lakhs and now one can debate if any other college in Uttarakhand apart from IIT Roorkee provide such placements.

Currently I am completing my 1 semster so I don't know about the placements opportunity. But as I listen about this college they are giving a best placement if you have scored good and also have a good skills.

Placements are really good here many companies comes at campus every year each year the number of companies increases and the highest package is about 32LPA and students are allowed from 7 semester to enroll in campus placement program 100% placement is assured if u are scoring more than 7.5 CGPA and having no backlogs at all my plans are to get degree and try to get the campus placement if possible
