A specialised private university with distinctive strength in energy, petroleum and allied engineering, alongside management, law and design. Its niche programmes have few direct competitors in India, which is its principal argument.

UPES — frequently asked questions
Are the specialised branches risky?
They concentrate your options. A petroleum or energy specialisation is valuable within those sectors and less portable outside them. If you are uncertain about the sector, a general Computer Science or Mechanical branch keeps more doors open.
