School Of Design Life at UPES

Overall a positive experience here. Good improvements have been seen now from 2 years. The curriculum, the teachers, activities, all things have been improved. I can suggest someone to get here in my opinion.

We have a simple course curriculum. We have 2 sessions in a day of a particular subject which can continue upto a week and in similar way all subjects are been covered. We don't have written exams, rather we have a jury in which we present our whole semester work to the jury members and marking in done by them.

As this course has started in this college just a few years back, only 1batch has just passed out last year. There is a placement cell in the college but that doesn't help the students much. The students need to be updated and be in touch with teachers and the dean for the placements. Yes, the students get internships in their 4th year and the stipend totally depends on which place the student is working on and the kind of work.

We have lots of events going on all year in the campus. The major event is the annual fest named UURJAA which is a grand event. There are different student chapters in the college which organises different events every month.

Fee structure is a bit expensive. Each semester cost around 150000-170000 depending on the course and the year. Every year the fees increases by 10%. In the 3rd year of the course you will have to pay an extra amount of 21000 for an industrial visit.

The college provides scholarship for the students having good results. The students can avail some discount the fees if they get scholarship. No loan facility is provided by the college for the students.

We have a good sports good, a basketball court, a football field too. We have good infrastructure labs with well equipped desktops and Wi-Fi. We do have a digital library which is a very good option here. Infrastructure , classes, ground, campus is very well built.

Yes, the seniors here are very friendly and helpful. And there is no record of any raging in this collage. So raging is not at all the thing here and Seniors are good enough to help the juniors for any of the work.

Faculties here are highly qualified and experienced. Mostly all are graduated from NID or IIT. They have lot of knowledge and are always ready to share. One can easily approach any faculty for any help.
