Course Curriculum Overview :

The course curriculum is kept strictly in line with the guidelines for a management program mentioned by the AICTE and UGC. Since it is a 10 months program there is no yearly or semester wise system of examination. Evaluations and assessments are held time to time during the course through tests and assignments. At the end of the course the final examination is conducted for the grant of diploma.

Placement Experience :

UPES University is a very famous university and its placement rate is also very good. However for the distance learning program you cannot expect the same thing inspite of the fact that the university provides you support in placement. 50% to 60% can easily get placements through on campus offers. One can try opportunities of placement through off campus drives. In terms of internship you are mostly on your own as the college doesn't provide it.

Fee Structure And Facilities :

The fee for the course is high as you can expect from the full-time program that the university offers. The cost for the 10 months diploma program is around 73,000 rupees. This has to be paid at the time of taking admission and includes the tuition fee and other related charges.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

Uttarakhand State government offers scholarship to the students who are domicile of the state and are either from reserved categories or are from the economically backward sections of the society. The central government through its national scholarship portal also extends financial assistance to the students. Educational loan can also be sought by the students.

Campus Life :

As a distance learning student there is nothing much for us to explore in terms of the extra curricular activities. These are more of things to be explored by the students who are enrolled in the full time program offered by the college. Infrastructure wise as we know that the college is a popular one it's top-notch. The regional centre of the university also has nice and sufficient infrastructure support.

Admission :

I applied for the college by filling in the detailed application form on the official website. I give the CAT exam but since I didn't got good score and I also had to continue my job I opted for a postgraduate diploma program from this university. UPES is a popular University in Uttarakhand and its distance learning arm offers variety of options in the diploma programme. After approval of my application I was asked to complete the admission formalities post which I got the admission in the program.

Faculty :

Since it is a distance learning program we hardly get a chance to interact with the teachers. whatever chance I got to interact with the teachers either through online or through the regional learning centre I can say that they are experienced and have good knowledge of their respective subject. They helped us and made sure that we learn the concepts and it's related things in an easy to grasp manner.

Entrance Preview:

The only exam that I had to give was CAT but it was a hard nut to crack. As my score in CAT met the cut-off this college, I received a call letter on my e-mail as I have earlier applied over here. I had to also go through a personal interview round and then got a final admission. All my academic documents and financial documents were also verified.

Graphic Era University has grown immensely since I have left

Placement Experience:

In the 4th semester, the companies started visiting the campus and prominent of those for our course were HDFC Bank and Axis Bank. The average salary offered was in the range of 35-40k a month. Nearly half the students from our batch were placed and I became a stockbroker now but took some experience by working at HDFC securities for a couple of years.

Doon University Review

Admission:

Personal interview and the group discussion are the two rounds that you need to clear in order to get admission here. You need to be aware about your course and some questions from your past job/ internship are also asked (if you have done any). Some personality questions are asked as well. Be confident and answer.

"One of the Best University in Dehradun"

Placement Experience:

The placement part is best in GEU. After the 2nd semester, students become eligible for campus placements. Many companies like Amazon, HDFC Bank, Axis Bank, Capgemini, Deloitte, Infosys visit our campus every year for campus placements. The highest package offered to students was 32Lakhs PA and the average package was about 4Lakhs PA. Every year 90% of students get placed in a well reputed company with a good package. If you study well and work hard, then you can easily get placed in some good company. University helps students a lot in their placements and also in their personality development, so they can crack all the interviews easily. My plans after getting the degree are to become a Financial Analyst in a well reputed company.
