Finding the Path: My college Journey

I choose to pursue Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and communication because I liked Mathematics and Physics a lot. The faculty members were quite qualifield and supporting as well. The mode of teaching was majorly in English and clear. The exams were conducted on time mostly and were of moderate level. The faculty to student ratio was 1:6.

The college placement cell was responsible for conducting and coordinating placement activities on the campus and even counselling students to know about their interest areas. The University had Voice and Accent trainers apart from counsellors who used to help us prepare for our interviews . Internship opportunities were provided to students in some departments of Engineering.

Amity University provides placement facility during last year of the course. Several Companies like HCL,Wipro etc comes for hiring candidates in Bulk. I got placed in HCL. The average package offered in our batch was three lakh per annum for Technical support Engineer. Placement rate is Eighty percent.

My overall fee structure for pursuing B-Tech was around Eight lakhs. Amity University provides several types of Merit based scholorship as well as sports scholarships as well. The university also provides internship support during Summer Semester break and placement services that can be availed during last year of the course when companies like HCL, Wipro etc comes for campus placement/Hiring.

The Quality of Campus life is good weather as a day scholar or a hostelier as I have personally experienced both. The classrooms are spacious, ventilated and Airconditioned. Amity lucknow campus has well stocked central Library where you can get upto three books for Two weeks period as a loan. There are lots of Science/Arts Club events, membership, One Annual fest Amiphoria and one Sports Fest Sangathan where you can showcase your talent and get rewarded. The campus has a mess where we can avail meal facility for a fee and sports complex as well as Gym and coffee shop,stationary shop and few more shops where we can purchase daily items as a hostelier.

There are three rooms in each flat and a washroom which is shared by all the occupants of the flat. There are two hostels for girls and two for boys. There is a mess which provides Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks and Dinner for students and staff.The quality of food is good. We can apply for the hostel accomodation online in advance before our next year of course starts.

The admission process in Amity university was easy. The cut off to get a call for admission rounds was sixty percent in Twelfth and Tenth boards. I filled the form in May 2011. There was an English assessment and personal interview. The overall cut off was Seventy percent for both rounds individually.

The admission process/assessment day comprises of few rounds. First round is English written assessment round wherein they check your style of expressing thoughts through an essay and letter writing. This test even has few Grammer based exercises. The second round is the Personal Interview round where they check your English communication skills as well as knowledge of Science and Mathematics subjects. I revised my Physics,Chemistry and Mathematics concept from Eleventh and Twelfth standard books.The overal passing criteria was Seventy percent.
