Amity University Gurugram offers a placement structure with opportunities for summer internships and final placements in the last semester, available to students with a minimum GPA of 6.5. Companies like Hunger Box, Healthians, Healthifyme, and Welljji participated in placements, offering 18, 20, 10, and 4 vacancies respectively. Despite this, only 20% of students secured placements due to limited offers and the lockdown's impact, prompting many to find jobs independently. Internship opportunities are diverse, involving renowned organizations such as the Nutrition Foundation of India and Britannia, though they do not offer stipends as they fulfill research report requirements.
The M.Sc. Food and Nutrition program costs INR 67,000 per semester, lower than other M.Sc. courses at the university, covering facilities like air-conditioned classrooms and fully equipped labs. The Amity Scholarship Scheme is available for the top 5% of students in the merit list, but financial assistance and on-campus jobs with stipends are not reported. Admission involves an entrance exam or interview with a 95% pass rate, though Sponsored candidates pay 70-80% more fees.
The process is perceived as lenient, potentially admitting less deserving candidates. Additionally, the compulsory Foreign Business Language course can be burdensome for some students.
