Which college has better placement in CS banned or UPS Dehradun

Ans: Preeti, Bennett University’s CSE program reports an average placement rate of 70–80% with a 2023 average package of ?7.99–11.01 lakh and over 232 recruiters, including Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Adobe, and Meta, regularly visiting campus. The highest package reached ?137 lakh, and the curriculum is industry-driven with strong Times Group connections and a modern research environment. UPES Dehradun’s School of Computer Science achieved a 91–94% placement rate in 2024, an average package of ?8.41 lakh, and a highest package of ?50 lakh, with 750+ recruiters such as Amazon, Microsoft, Deloitte, and PwC. The top 10% of CSE students at UPES secured average packages of ?14–17.7 lakh, and the placement cell is recognized for its efficiency and global industry partnerships. Both universities offer robust infrastructure and industry exposure, but UPES consistently places more students, has a higher recruiter base, and its CSE program is rated highly for placement support and global employability.

The recommendation is to prefer UPES Dehradun for CSE if your priority is a higher placement rate, broader recruiter network, and stronger placement support, while Bennett University is a strong alternative for those seeking a more research-focused environment and Times Group industry connections. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Career Counsellor - Answered on Jul 11, 2025

Career
Sir, I scored 96.6 in CBSE Board XII and the 99.4 percentile in CUET 2025, totalling 816 marks out of 1000 in PCM and English. I am planning to take admission in B.Sc. (Physics) at DU, preferably at St. Stephen's, Hansraj, Hindu, Kirorimal, Ramjas, or Khalsa College. What are the chances for an admission in those colleges, and which one do I have to opt for higher study (MS and research in physics)? Kindly advise.
Ans: Param, Your 99.4 percentile in CUET 2025 and 96.6% CBSE XII score place you well above the estimated cut-offs for B.Sc. (Hons.) Physics at all six colleges: St. Stephen’s (expected CUET ≥550), Hindu College (≈520), Hansraj College (≈490), Kirori Mal College (≥425), Ramjas College (≈735 marks equivalent to 98%), and Khalsa College (≈700 marks equivalent to 93–98%). All six colleges indicate first-list admission based on these thresholds.

For pursuing an MS and research in physics—where having knowledgeable teachers, good research facilities, connections with industries, and chances to work on different projects are important—Hansraj and Hindu are the best options because they have strong physics departments, high rankings, modern labs, and many research publications. Kirori Mal and Ramjas offer strong mentorship and campus placements in scientific roles, while Khalsa provides solid project-based learning on North Campus. St. Stephen’s, lacking an Honours Physics programme, is less aligned with specialized research pathways.

Recommendation: Choose Hindu College or Hansraj College for B.Sc. (Hons.) Physics to maximize exposure to advanced research projects, collaborative faculty, and a robust peer network essential for seamless progression into MS and research programmes in India and abroad. Hansraj’s notable research grants and Hindu’s interdisciplinary centers make them prime choices. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
