A University’s worth, its ‘greatness’, should be judged by its value to society. Several key characteristics that will help us to define how this value might be measured are identified in the body of the Plan. It is vital though to begin by placing the essential elements on the platform to achieve greatness i.e. to build UPES as a true Research and Innovation led University.

Since its establishment in 2003, UPES has been among India’s pioneering innovation-driven Universities. We have a fine tradition of developing domain-specific and industry-ready graduates. However, after getting our teaching and learning processes in the right direction, we must continue to harness our research potential as well.

We have come along with the creation of 12 virtual research centres and winning more than 40 research projects from various Funding Organizations; both in the public and private sectors. This must motivate us to further develop and nurture our R&D ideas in a broad range of spectrums ranging from fundamental to applied research.

The following are 12 research centres:

  • Institute for Alternate Energy Research
  • Robotic Institute
  • Institute of NanoScience & NanoTechnology
  • Computation Research Institute

UPES, with its strong R&D base and consultancy activities, has been the destination of choice for corporates who wish to conduct high-quality and cost-effective research in the energy and allied sectors. UPES undertakes research and consultancy projects related to the Energy and Allied sectors through its sister concerns.

During the last more than five years, there has been significant growth in the externally funded research of UPES. We have completed projects funded by various agencies, such as the Department of Science & Technology (DST), Government of India; Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India; Oil & Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC); Uttarakhand Council of Science & Technology (UCOST, International Association of Universities (IAU). Indo-French Center for Pure and Applied Research (IFCPAR), World Bank, European Union and so on. These projects include Solar-Thermal Pyrolysis of waste to convert into biofuel, Grey water treatment technologies, India-France collaborative research for nano-technological solutions of contaminated drinking water, modelling of oil reservoirs, Novel Electrodes for Biofuel Cells, nano-biosensors for agricultural applications, solar-induced water splitting for hydrogen generation etc.

During the R&D work, UPES has also developed patented prototyped technologies. One such technology is Multfuel Neelam Cookstove, which can handle three different feedstocks (Forest biomass, Biogas from waste, LPG) individually or in combination. Except this, we have developed a miniaturized microfluidic viscometer for a variety of applications, including monitoring fuel adulteration, biofuel blending and biomedical diagnostics. Further, a Fuel injection system has been patented for compression ignition engines of stationary applications, particularly for diesel engines. Another such technology is an integrated automotive Biomass Gasification Unit. This unit has been developed to meet the entire energy demands of a family of 10 persons. A few salient features of this unit are its amenability to convert lantana (A common weed found all over the country destroying forest land) to low tar gas, its new design of down-draft Biomass Gasifier, and its throughput of 1 KW electricity and heat for cooking.

With all these efforts, UPES has several state-of-the-art pilot scale units, including an integrated Biodiesel plant (100 litres per day capacity) and biogas production units (total 100 m3/day). We have a sophisticated instruments laboratory housing various equipment involved in the R&D activities in the aforementioned areas. We also collaborate with various organizations, nationally and internationally with a focus to develop partnerships with the organizations located in Dehradun and its vicinity. More information on R&D activities at UPES can be found on https://research.upes.ac.in/

UPES emphasizes research-based learning. To enable quality research, the University provides qualified and experienced mentors with top-of-the-line facilities and the requisite environment. The University has a huge Learning Resource Centre, state-of-the-art Living Labs, extensive and high-quality electronic databases, and most importantly, an attitude that is geared towards innovation and exploration.

UPES welcomes research initiatives from individuals and extends its cooperation to further the cause of high

HELP TOPICS

Will the degree awarded by UPES carry emblem of UGC or any other body?

The degrees awarded by the University do not bear the emblem of either UGC or any other body.

 

Has UPES been approved by AICTE? Is there any such requirement?

Under the AICTE Act and its subsequent Regulations, Universities established under a State or Central Act in accordance with Section 2(f) and 3 of the UGC Act, 1956, do not require AICTE approval. However, the Universities are only required to maintain AICTE norms and standards and require no prior approval of AICTE for starting Technical & Professional courses.

This has also been clarified by the Hon’ble Supreme Court’s judgment in the case of Bharathidasan University v/s AICTE wherein the Court had ruled that:

“it is not mandatory for a University, created under an Act, to seek & secure prior approval of the AICTE to start a department for imparting a course or program in technical education or a technical institution as an adjunct to the University itself to conduct technical courses of its choice & selection. The Bench also said that the definition of technical institution excludes from its purview a university, and when by definition a university is excluded from a technical institution, to interpret that such a clause or such an expression, wherever the expression technical institution occurs, will include a university will be reading into the Act what is not provided therein”

How is UPES sponsored ?

UPES is sponsored by Hydrocarbons Education & Research Society (HERS) which is registered under the “Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860” (Registration No. S-41894 of 2002). HERS is a not-for-profit society promoted by a group of prominent professionals from the Industry.

What is Infrastructure and Hostel facilities, within campus or outside, and who controls it ?

Residential blocks have been earmarked for limited on – campus accommodation (on first come first serve basis) separately for boys and girls on triple sharing basis. Apart from this there are good number of private hostels and paying guest accommodations suitable for students near to campus. UPES does not have any direct or indirect tie up whatsoever with the Private hostels and does not undertake any responsibility in this regard. Parents are advised to verify the data independently before finalizing any arrangement with the concerned hostel and also sign a written contract with the hostel owners. Parents are also advised against making advance payments without verifying the facilities themselves as also, they should insist up on a written contract with the hostel owner, which should clearly state the payment modalities for early withdrawal as also, arrangements during summer school if applicable.
