System of Education

As Followed by World's Best Universities

100% Attendance

At Amity, every student is required to achieve 100% attendance in all the Lectures, Tutorials and Practicals and Seminars during the semester; to ensure academic excellence, disciplinary approach and growth of the student. A minimum of 75% attendance is required to appear in the examinations. However, in case of contingencies, a relaxation up to a maximum of 25% is granted.

Curricular Updation

The course syllabus is regularly examined and evaluated by an expert committee as per the industry requirements. For this, many points are considered such as feedback reports on the placements, employability of the passed out students, latest developments in the technology, statutory compliances of various bodies etc. The revised course curriculum is then reviewed by Board of Studies of the institution for recommendations to Academic Council for approval.

Semester System

Amity University follows a Semester System which is in conformity with the global practices and standards. The Course curriculum of one year is taught into two semesters i.e., 17-18 weeks each. Semester system promotes greater interaction between faculty members and students and also permits more meaningful term paper and research assignments.

Grade System

The level of students' academic performance as the aggregate of continuous evaluation and end term examination is reflected by letter grades on a Ten Point Scale. Letter grades (A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, F) have points associated with them in quantified hierarchy and have qualitative meaning. Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) & Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) are calculated based on the students' performance in Semester(s), & overall respectively.

Amity University follows Absolute Grading as well as Relative Grading depending upon the student strength in a particular programme & batch. Students are required to maintain minimum SGPA & CGPA to pass a semester/promote to the next semester and qualify for Degree/Diploma.

Internal Evaluation System

For better judgement of the academic performance and development of the students, Amity conducts assessments at regular intervals. 30% weightage is given to continuous/internal assessment in a semester wherein 3-4 evaluation components with weightages are defined.

It covers Class Test, Viva, Quiz, Case Discussion / Presentation / Analysis, Home Assignment, Project, Seminar, Term Paper, Attendance etc.
