The Campus: A Modern Hub in Dwarka

GGSIPU operates from a large, modern main campus in Delhi.

• Location: The main campus is located in Sector 16C, Dwarka, Delhi. It also has a newer East Delhi Campus (Surajmal Vihar).

• Campus Size & Vibe: The Dwarka campus is spread over 60 acres and features modern, well-planned, and air-conditioned buildings. It's a bustling urban campus with a large and diverse student body.

Healthcare Connection: An Affiliating University (Not Constituent)

This is a key point of distinction for GGSIPU.

• No Constituent Medical College: GGSIPU does not have its own constituent Medical College (for MBBS) or a large teaching hospital directly on its Dwarka campus.

• Affiliation Role: The university's "Faculty of Medicine" (School of Medicine and Para Medical Health Sciences) acts as the affiliating university for several major government and private medical colleges in Delhi. This includes:

• Vardhman Mahavir Medical College (VMMC) & Safdarjung Hospital (Central Govt)

• Atal Bihari Vajpayee Institute of Medical Sciences (ABVIMS) & Dr. RML Hospital (Central Govt)

• Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Medical College & Hospital, Rohini (Delhi Govt)

• North Delhi Municipal Corporation Medical College & Hindu Rao Hospital (Municipal)

• Army College of Medical Sciences (ACMS) (Private - for Army wards)

• On-Campus Health Programs: The university's own campus offers paramedical, B.Pharm, and allied health courses, but not the MBBS degree.

Fee Structure: State University (Aided vs. Self-Financed)

As a state university, GGSIPU's fees are highly structured. On-campus (USS) courses are generally more affordable than private affiliated colleges, but more than traditional central universities.

•

Admissions & Career Pathways: National Tests & IPU CET

• Getting Admitted: GGSIPU's admission process is multi-faceted and relies heavily on national-level tests and its own CET.

• National Tests (Primary Gateway):

• B.Tech: Admission is primarily based on rank in JEE Main Paper-1 (except for B.Tech Biotechnology).

• MBBS / BDS: Admission to affiliated colleges is strictly based on NEET-UG rank, followed by MCC Counselling (for All India Quota/Deemed/Central) or GGSIPU Counselling (for State Quota seats).

• MD / MS: Based on NEET-PG rank, followed by MCC/GGSIPU counselling.

• Law (BA/BBA LLB): Admission is strictly based on CLAT-UG rank.

• LLM: Based on CLAT-PG rank.

• MBA: Based on CAT, CMAT, or IPU CET scores.

• IPU CET (Common Entrance Test): The university conducts its own entrance test (IPU CET) for various programs not covered by national tests, or for filling seats after national tests. This is a primary gateway for courses like BBA, BCA, B.Ed, BJMC, B.Pharm, MA/M.Sc, and B.Tech (Biotechnology).

• CUET: GGSIPU also accepts CUET-UG scores for admission to many of its on-campus and affiliated college UG programs (like BBA, BCA, B.Com Hons, BA Econ, etc.), often in addition to or as an alternative to IPU CET.

• It is crucial to check the specific admission brochure for the desired course each year to confirm the valid entrance exam (JEE, NEET, CLAT, CUET, or IPU CET).

• Career Support (Placements): GGSIPU (both on-campus schools and top affiliated colleges) has a strong placement record, especially in Engineering, Management, and Law.

• Industry Focus: Strong linkages with the Delhi-NCR corporate and tech hub. The university has a central placement cell, and each school/college has its own active cell.

• Recruiters: Attracts a vast number of recruiters, including top-tier IT/Software companies (Amazon, Adobe, TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Josh Technology), finance firms, law firms, and media houses.

• Salary Potential: Varies greatly by college and course.

• On-Campus (USS): For B.Tech (USICT), the highest package often reaches ₹45 LPA+, with an average package around ₹12 LPA. For MBA (USMS), the median package is around ₹6.18 LPA.

• Affiliated Colleges: Top affiliated engineering/management colleges also post high packages, though the average may vary.

• Law (USLLS): Median package reported around ₹5.2 LPA.
