Placements at UPES are approached as a continuous professional development process rather than an activity restricted to the final semester. Career preparedness is introduced early in the academic lifecycle and strengthened progressively each year through structured training, mentoring, and industry exposure.
The university’s Career Services and Placement Office begins engaging with students from the first year itself. Alongside domain-specific learning, students receive systematic guidance on communication skills, resume development, interview readiness, workplace etiquette, and employer expectations. This gradual and structured preparation model helps students build confidence over time and reduces the pressure typically associated with placement seasons.
