University of Petroleum and Energy Studies - [UPES], Dehradun - associated department

Based on your personal education experience, you recommend that if you have the choice between IMSEC Ghaziabad and UPES Dehradun, you should choose IMSEC. However, if you have received a specialization in CCVT from UPES, then you should consider attending UPES. The reasons why IMSEC is the better choice are:

• IMSEC is located in the National Capital Region, which is a hub for startups, networking, and connecting with like-minded individuals. The location provides great opportunities to build a strong resume and gain industrial exposure. In comparison, Dehradun and Guna are relatively isolated.
• The fees at IMSEC are significantly lower than at UPES, offering a better return on investment.
• Both IMSEC and UPES are considered to be tier 3 colleges, meaning that students are likely to be placed in companies such as Infosys or Wipro. However, with hard work, skill-building, and networking, students have the potential to secure better job opportunities with product-based companies like Amazon, Flipkart, or Microsoft.
• UPES Dehradun has a higher number of attractive female students, compared to IMSEC and Jaypee Guna. However, it should be noted that there are plenty of attractive girls in Delhi as well. Ultimately, IMSEC is the better choice (unless you have received the specialization in CCVT from UPES).

KIIT, SRM, and UPES are some of the best private colleges in India. Placement statistics change for every college according to year and branch. I am a B.Tech CSE student and therefore, my answer will talk especially about the CSE branch.

In KIIT, around 90% of the students get placed as the placement season starts. Companies mostly require a 6-6.5 CGPA and the cutoffs can go to maximum 7.5 CGPA for some companies. A 6-pointer may end up with a better job than a 9-pointer because of skills. The placement scenario is good.

KIIT is better among the three for placements because it has an E-cell or Entrepreneurship Cell which is not present in the other two colleges. Over there, an internship camp is organized in which the students can get an internship in their field of interest, in different companies.

SRM- In SRM, there is a system of mass recruitment and most students get placed. Mass recruitment companies recruit students in large numbers with an average package of around INR 4.5 LPA. If you study hard, practice coding, are strong in aptitude, database, etc., you can get a package of INR 5-6LPA.

UPES-  CSE branch, the placement percentage is around 90%.  However, the number of companies that visit UPES is limited. IBM is a big company and offers the maximum placements. Amazon, Wipro, Dell, Flipkart, and others also visit the campus for placements.

Thus, because of its Entrepreneurship Cell and Internship camp, I would suggest that KIIT has the best placements out of the three. However, placements at SRM and UPES are also quite good and the placement figures for all three are at par.

You should choose KIIT Bhubaneswar for studying Law. It is older and more reputed. On an overall scale, it is better than UPES, Dehradun. Placement will depend on your interest. For Judiciary careers, KIIT Bhubaneswar offers more exposure and opportunities. Few law firms also take part in campus placements. The highest CTC offered in KIIT Bhubaneswar placements is around INR 7 LPA.  UPES offers better opportunities in corporate law. 

When considering which school to choose, it's important to compare your options. When it comes to choosing between UPES and other schools, there really is no comparison. UPES is hands down the better option.

If you are looking for a school that provides better internships, certifications, and industry-recognized degrees, then you should definitely consider the College of Management & Economics Studies at UPES. Their MBAs are tailored to specific domains, so you'll be able to focus on what you're truly interested in.

UPES also boasts a placement rate of around 95%, which is a great indicator of the school's success in helping students land jobs after graduation. Students who are serious about their studies have landed positions at top companies like Crisil, KPMG, and Amazon, with salaries that often exceed those offered by IIMs.

While UPES may not be in the same league as top private schools, it is still a better option than schools like ICFAI or DBS. In terms of return on investment, most students will likely find that UPES is a better choice. If you have the funds and are able to clear the entrance procedures, then UPES should be your top choice.

NIT Silchar seems to be a better option for CSE than NIT Hamirpur and UPES Dehradun. Here are some unique aspects of NIT Silchar that make it stand apart from these colleges 

• NIT Silchar is considered to be one of the top institutes of national importance in India delivering high-quality education in the field of engineering. 
• It was honored with the Outstanding Engineering Institute, East India by the ABP News National Education Awards.
• Additionally, it was awarded the award of best engineering college in eastern India by the leading industry body ASSOCHAM in the National Education Excellence Awards 2014.
• NIT Silchar got a 9/9 grade on the TEQIP project. There are only 3 NITs to achieve this.
• NIT Silchar has the honor of receiving some valuable comments from the President of India.
• NIT Silchar is one of the 3 NITs that have a supercomputer.
• NIT Silchar is above many NITs in the MHRD rankings so it should be given high preference.
• NIT Silchar has amazing infrastructural facilities such as an Auditorium, Stadiums, Courts, Sports Complex, Boating Club, the largest Central Library, etc

The above points are more than enough to convince you to join NIT Silchar instead of UPES Dehradun and NIT Hamirpur.

According to the reviews online, both colleges have their own pros and cons, and here are some comparison points which might help you make an informed decision.

• The location of both the colleges are good, be it Gandhinagar or Dehradun.
• The UPES campus is much bigger compared to the PDPU campus. But both are well maintained and facilitated.
• PDPU provides B.Tech in Petroleum Engineering while UPES provides the same in Applied Petroleum Engineering. The former is considered to be far better and more advantageous than the latter. 
• Curriculum of PDPU is very well prepared encompassing all major aspects. It has now been bifurcated into upstream and downstream.
• Placements at PDPU are much better compared to UPES.
• PDPU is visited by core companies like ONGC but UPES is mostly famous for its relevance among IT companies like Accenture, Wipro, etc.

Lastly, it can be seen that PDPU, even being a newer institution has grown a lot compared to other colleges. They are visited by core companies which hire students offering them a salary package of 14-15 LPA. So, it will be better if you go for PDPU as it will give you proper industrial exposure and opportunities.
