Our Story

Our History
Since the Chapter’s inception in 2009, the UPES SPE Student Chapter has always aimed for the skies. With the goal of disseminating knowledge among the college students, the chapter has progressed by leaps and bounds with each passing year. Today, the Chapter is a benchmark for excellence in all undertakings, be it planning & operations, social responsibility, industrial involvement or professionalism.

Our Values
The values of the Chapter are its backbone, because the Chapter subscribes to the ideology that an individual and an organization are both described by their value systems. Some of these values include elements of Professionalism, a spirit of Volunteering, the desire for Continuous Learning, a sense of Social Responsibility, and as embodied by our motto, a life led with the aim of Enhancing Competence.

Our Purpose
The Chapter aims to challenge its older self with each passing year. The annual UPES SPE Fest each year is, despite the vast success of previous years, unparalleled in exposure, participation and glory. The Chapter continues to grow by leaps and bounds and achieve new standards of brilliance every day, moving on, towards greater goals, and dispense technical and non-technical skills to all our stakeholders.
