UPES-Honest Review

3.0Helpful

Likes

I liked the extra curricular part of our college, the college does support your other talents
The music fests, sports fests and other fests were really enjoyable.

Dislikes

Student parking space is messed up, its far away from the campus and very unorganised.
There is no ac in the classroom, classes during summer are hell.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is creative and being a creative person myself, I wanted to dive in this field. Plus design in the modern world is a much required job in every aspect. The only negative point i felt, unlike other courses the assignments here were tough and compulsory.

The college aesthetics are good every building has a greyish black color which makes the buildings look premium
The food inside the college campus is good we have 3 cafes inside and a big food court also we have dominos rught above the food court

Dislikes

Huge campus makes us tired of walking and our classes are scheduled in different blocks which makes us even more tired
The food is good but a little expensive inside the campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

I was interested in art since my childhood everyone in my family praised me for that but for some reason i was going for engineering first but when had a deep convo with my father he said " do whatever u feel like" and then i did a research on the course named B.des (bachelor's of design) and I went for it. In today's world design is everywhere, everything needs a design from a huge aircraft to a small paper boat everything needs a design so its practical for me atleast. I wont recommend any teaching methods improvement coz everything here works fine. Also we dont have exams we have jury in which every faculty judges our work and what we have done in a full semester and it always happens at the end of the semester.

Likes

There are many opportunities to grab upon in terms of academics and extracurricular.
Girls and boys ratio almost equal in design

Dislikes

I don't like management over here in different things like fests and all
Didn't like the medical services over here. The infirmary acts as a coorparate work. It is closed on Saturdays and Sundays.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is good. It also depends on the teacher who is teaching. Sometimes it varies with batch to batch as the faculty is different. The curriculum prepares us well as it teaches from the very basic. We have time to time exhibitions. People can visit. It's a good thing to boost confidence.

Know my university, UPES

3.9Helpful

Likes

No compromise in facilities and labs, free access to world class machines and softwares is provided by the college
University is tucked away from the city noises between beautiful mountains surrounded by forests and small villages

Dislikes

Lack of coordination and communication between different departments within the university

Course Curriculum Overview:

The freedom to be as creative as I can be is the one thing that attracted me to pursue this course while learning I realize that the course itself will provide you with the outline of what is needed and going on in the industry but it's completely up to the student how well he or she wants to prepare themselves for the industry. But I think our course could include the latest developments in the industry highlighting the challenges and opportunities in the current era. We dont have exams in design, we have juries and exhibitions where we have to present our works and get hands-on review

The truth of UPES from a UPESite itself

3.6Helpful

Likes

The infrastructure & all the necessary equipments & labs are there
The faculties are highly qualified. they are PHDs or IITs passouts.

Dislikes

Management system of the university in general is poor
Transportation facility & connectivity is not good

Course Curriculum Overview:

I think the curriculum is quite relevant to the real world. The course curriculum is more of theoretical and less of practical, which is bit of a negative point. The faculties are quite good in their field which is pros for the students.

My overall experience in UPES, dehradun

4.8Helpful

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because of my interest and bend towards drawing and designing and also that I loved to do and create more things. The faculty and student ratio is okay like I did not feel that any faculty is being burdened because of many students and there is one faculty per subject for different years. All the faculty members are very qualified and have had great experience in the industry as well as in the teaching field. The teaching method of all teachers varies in a good way. They make every class seem interesting and not boring and they know how to keep students well involved, the assignments are also quite interesting and fun to do. After every 6 months, we have our jury which is also quite interactive as the faculties try to get hold of all the things done in the whole semester and it does not seem like an exam but just a way to put up your works in front of extremely qualified people.

Fee Structure And Facilities:

though it's on the same level as other national Law universities that was at my time now its expensive. the college is relatively expensive moreover including the overhead expenses the course will cost you around 18-20 lakh approx. but that depends on the Nature of the students you travel and commute through your own car then it will be in late 20's.
