The best college with a variety of students and faculty. 

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in our college was fabulous. The facilities in our college, like labs, classrooms, and libraries, are the best. But as it is situated on the mountain, we have to face some issues regarding the mobile network and Wi-Fi. They are also not so good. The hostel was good and all the other facilities were excellent, but there was a little issue with the water supply as the college was situated in the mountains.

Review of UPES - University of Petroleum and Energy Studies.

Infrastructure: I am staying in a private hostel, which has a good ambience for study. The infrastructure of our college is good, and it offers many courses. There are 2 labs for automotive engineering where we learn about all the components of vehicles starting from chassis to powertrain. Wi-Fi speed is not so good. Labs have a good range of equipment. Our campus has 3-floors library with a good sitting space. Quite interesting books are available in the library, and we can utilise our quality time.

Overall the development of the students is good whereas the placements are above average.

Infrastructure: University of petroleum and energy studies have two buildings. One is located in Bidholi, and the other campus is in Kandoli that is 3km away from Bidholi campus. It is located on the hill, and it is 9km from Prema Nagar, via Nanda ki chowki, Dehradun. The Bidholi campus is surrounded by a mountain and has a very beautiful view. The infrastructure of the college is marvellous. The location is awesome. The clouds collide with college building in the morning, and it is a wonderful view.

Dissatisfied because of the faculty, placements, and the subjects were entirely different.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, but the college is not in according to the department wise. The labs are good, and there is a biggest playground. The food is good, and the hostels are well cleaned and maintained, I didn't feel any infrastructure issues, and there should be more labs. There are many labs with the good infrastructure, and I just thought there should be departments.

The college has 10 blocks, several labs, a library, an energy house, an administration department and separate hostels inside the campus. The college is 10 km away from Dehradun city. Natural beauty can be seen everywhere around the college. Wi-fi has a good speed with good medical facilities, sports and games available. The university owns a cricket stadium.

It’s a well-known college but lacks the spark which was there. It provides average placements, awesome weather and infrastructure. You should be focused on getting things done by yourself. Don’t expect a lot from college as they will bring the company, but if you are a mediocre student it won't be that much of a help.
