The developments in this decade, including High-Speed Internet, Accelerated High-end
Hardware, Mobile Devices, and Artificial Intelligence, have opened new opportunities in the
field of Information Technology. Huge disruption, and new job opportunities are knocking the
door of young minds, due to the Generative AI as impact on every domain. The Amity Institute
of Information Technology (AIIT) was established in the year 2015 with an aim to attract
young talent interested in the field of computer science and information technology.
At present, AIIT is running a two-year Post Graduate programme MCA, and M.Sc. (Cyber
Security). AIIT offers and four years Undergraduate programmes, i.e., BCA (Honours / Honours
with Research) with three specializations with BCA - Artificial Intelligence (AI) and
Machine Learning (ML) , BCA - Data Science and Analytics, & BCA- Blockchain and Cyber
Security. The institution also offers four years B.Sc. Information Technology (Honours /
Honours with Research) program. A full-time and part-time Ph. D. Research programme in
Information Technology are also offered at the school. The school created a
technology-assisted teaching-learning environment having Amizone (ERP System) and a Learning
Management System (LMS) to achieve excellence in pedagogy. The faculty members use new-age
teaching and learning tools and technologies for the implementation and demonstration of the
advanced technologies. The blended learning, flipped classrooms, case studies, and
project-based learning are the regular activities carried out in the department.
The pedagogy tools and techniques for effective knowledge transfer make the learning interesting
for students having different learning abilities and different interests. Due to the use of
synchronous and asynchronous teaching and learning methods, AIIT at Amity University Mumbai has
created its unique identity in the education field. The AIIT students are equipped with the
essential skills to face all kinds of challenges in the technical and research realm. AIIT
updates the curriculum of all the programmes to match the skillset requirement, including a
strong foundation of core courses and recent advancements in the field of Information
Technology.
The school is facilitating state-of-the-art classrooms with LCD projectors, high internet
connectivity, excellent ambiance, ventilation, and airconditioning. The Computer Laboratory is
equipped with exemplary computers, as per the software installation requirements for the
open-source and bespoke software. The virtual computer laboratories are accessible through a
cloud-based environment. The school provides a digital library, consisting of IEEE, EBSCO,
Scopus, E-Books, Journals, and Magazines, as online learning material.
The major research domain of the AIIT is Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Image
processing, Web3, and Cloud Computing. There are nine Ph. D. scholars pursing their research
under the able guidance of the experienced faculty members. There are several Scopus and WOS
indexed publications, and two patents in the account of the AIIT.
