All department have their own Wi-Fi, lab, classrooms, and library. All the facilities in the hostel are very good. The mess staff is very nice.

I do not want to rate or give any rating to this college.

Placements: I think there are almost no placements in this college. If there are any placements, they are only for courses like B.A., not for other courses like B.Sc. or other programs. It is very bad, as equal opportunities should be provided for all courses, but the college shows partiality.

Infrastructure: There are average classrooms, and they could be better. The library is good, but Wi-Fi is not accessible in some areas, although it is available in the library. Hostels are okay, but for the last year, the mess has not been working. Students have to manage their own food, which is not a good thing.

Faculty: Faculty members are good, have good behavior, and are friendly. The course curriculum is very old in this college. The passing criteria are 40% of total marks. Otherwise, students get a back/supply in that particular subject.

Other: There is only an annual day event in my college, with no fests or other activities. I am currently studying a Bachelor of Science in Physical Science with Computer Science as my major subject.

Nice place with wonderful people.

Placements: The course that I study does not provide many placement opportunities. However, this place is really nice for studying. The environment here is very good. You get a competitive atmosphere with students from all over Himachal and even some students from different states of India. It is a good place where you learn many things in this department.

Infrastructure: The hostel infrastructure and location are very nice. The condition of the buildings is good. The mess and canteen are also very good. It hygienically provides food. Wi-Fi is available throughout the campus and in the hostels as well. Medical facilities are available in both the hostel and the college campus.

Faculty: Teachers and professors are well-qualified in their respective subjects. They cooperate whenever students need help and are always ready to support. Exams are held every six months. Before final exams, there are house tests like midterms. Students have to submit assignments and prepare PPT presentations every semester, which are evaluated by professors.

Other: First of all, English Literature is a very vast and interesting subject. Students learn many new things in life. After completing this course, they become a different and more knowledgeable person. It changes their perspective, and the place itself is very fascinating.

The Shimla campus of Himachal Pradesh University.

Placements: The core placement of the civil branch is very much limited. The highest package is somewhere between 9 LPA to 10 LPA. The average package is 4 LPA to 5 LPA. Most of the students prefer off-campus internships and placements. NALCO and L&T are some regular companies that come for placements. The roles offered are site engineer, junior engineer, etc.

Infrastructure: Although it is a government campus, the size of the campus is smaller than that of the other private engineering colleges. The campus provides Wi-Fi but at a basic speed. The labs are okay but the maintenance is very low. The classrooms are generic. The library is useful it is open most of the time. The hostel affordability is quite a problem because there are limited seats in hostels.

Faculty: The faculty members are academically very intelligent and always helpful to every student. The course curriculum is quite relevant and it helps students to improve their skill set to a certain level. The semester exams mostly focus on the university courses and it is somewhat difficult for those who take academics for granted.

Other: If you get enrolled for civil engineering, start preparing for GATE and other exams because it provides a good atmosphere for those kinds of exams.

Review of UIT Shimla from a student.

Placements: Only a handful of students, around seven, get selected from Civil and Electrical Engineering. However, if you are opting for CSE or IT, almost all students get placed, except a few. It is mainly a college for IT and CSE professions. The highest package is around 14 LPA, and the lowest is around 4 LPA. Companies like TCS, Wipro, and some local brands recruit students. Around 11–15% of students get internships if they apply. I cannot think of any top roles from my branch, but most students from Civil or Electrical either prepare for government exams or join family businesses in these fields.

Infrastructure: The college has a single building with all the branches and very little lab equipment. The classrooms are average, and the HPU library is a national-level library, which is a positive point. There is no hostel and nearly no campus other than HPU. The food quality in Shimla is worst. I do not understand why there is no good food available there.

Faculty: Faculty members are helpful and knowledgeable. The quality of teaching is good for most of them. The exams are of moderate difficulty, neither too tough nor too easy. Most students get good grades according to themselves. The course curriculum is relevant. Most of the time, classes are given priority for practical lessons, although some teachers prefer theory.

Other: I wish the college had a bigger campus, its own hostel, and better facilities. Events like Utkarsh and others are the best in Shimla and are the highlight of the year.
