I am strongly against judging a college solely on the basis of placements. Placements should never be the major criteria for evaluating the credibility and worth of an institute. Rather, you should look for the college that has excellent records of international competitions, and which are known to offer better opportunities as a whole for personality development.

If it’s only placements you are concerned about, then please consider joining MUJ as it has a better placement scenario than UPES, and is expected to improve more so.

Particulars	MUJ placements 2022	UPES placements 2023
Highest CTC	INR 55 LPA	INR 36 LPA
Average CTC	INR 7 LPA	INR 8.66 LPA
Top Recruiters	Accenture, Amazon, Country Delight, Daikin, SAP Labs, ZS Associates	ONGC, Airbus, Boeing, Microsoft India, Zeta

Eventually, the most crucial factor is how well the students avail the opportunity put forth by the university.
