UPES Partners with Juniper Networks - Building a State-of-the-Art Networking & Cyber Systems CoE

UPES School of Computer Science

UPES has collaborated with Juniper Networks to establish a world-class Center of Excellence (CoE) in networking and cyber systems, designed to deliver immersive, hands-on learning aligned with global technology standards. UPES is now an official member of Juniper Networks Cloud & Automation Academy. This initiative strengthens UPES’s vision of producing industry-ready engineers with deep technical competence and internationally recognized certifications.

As part of the CoE, Juniper Networks has recommended and endorsed a dedicated suite of industry-grade hardware devices enabling:

Hands-on lab simulations
Real-time configuration and network testing
Seamless integration with Juniper’s global academic curriculum

The partnership provides exceptional academic advantages, including:

100% subsidized access to Juniper’s global certification programs (valued between USD 200 to USD 300 per learner)
Full access to Juniper’s associate and specialist level learning pathways, curated curriculum and lab setup guides (valued between USD 2,000 to USD 4,000 per learner).
Faculty and student upskilling aligned with contemporary networking, cloud, and cybersecurity requirements.

This collaboration equips UPES students with advanced competencies in networking, automation, cloud infrastructure, and cybersecurity capabilities that are in high demand worldwide. The CoE strengthens placement readiness by giving learners hands-on experience, deep practical exposure, and access to global certification tracks.

Through the Juniper Networks CoE, UPES is cultivating a pipeline of future-ready technologists, prepared to lead in an increasingly connected digital world.
