Psychology Honours from Amity University is really good as it is a NAAC Grade-A University and approved by AICTE and UGC. The University offers BA Honours in Psychology as well as in Applied Psychology.

Amity University is a fair option if you want to pursue your Psychology Honours and the two main reasons are – Course and Faculty. Almost all the colleges have the same curriculum and course, the difference lies in the type of placements and opportunities offered by the University.

Campus Life:

• The University maintains a healthy gender ratio where the number of girls outweighs the number of boys.
• Various debates and quizzes are organized the whole year round for students to participate in. The famous annual fest – Amicroma is also organized by Amity.

Placements:

• Students can sit for placements in the University but they should apply outside the Campus as the placements for Psychology are not that promising.
• Various internships are offered by the University but they are not paid internships. A student only gets a Recommendation letter.
• The placement rate for Amity is 97%.

Course Curriculum:

• The faculty is highly knowledgeable as everybody has completed their Ph.D. in the specialized subject.
• Various course-related activities are also conducted by the University.

Scholarship –

• The Scholarship Policy of Amity is very convenient. If you score between 75% to 88% in class 12, you can get a Scholarship of 25%.
• If you score between 89% to 94% in class 12, you can get a Scholarship of 50%.
• If you score above 94%, then you can be awarded a 100% scholarship.
• This Scholarship is named after the Amity’s founder, Dr. Aseem Chouhan Scholarship.

Therefore, these were enough reasons to state that Amity is a good choice for Psychology Honours and the type of personality development offered by it, is very unique too.

One of my friends is pursuing her BA(H) in Applied Psychology from Amity University. According to her experience, Amity University is definitely not the best, but it is not a bad option either. Given below is a brief review of the course. 

Faculty:

• The faculties are well-qualified. Most of them have their Ph.D. or doing their Ph.D. from Amity University. 
• Although most of the teachers do not have time to come to the class because of some of the other issues. Sometimes, they are in the middle of a conference, annual function, or a Sangathan or sports day.

Attendance: 

At Amity, attendance is a big issue. You need to maintain at least 75% attendance in each subject. 

Extra-subjects:

In Amity, you don’t join psychology or any particular course, but the baggage of other subjects like foreign languages, English, BS, EVS, and many more. You will have to study a total of 12 subjects in the first semester itself. Out of these subjects, only some of them are useful, the rest do not even matter if they were a part of the curriculum for psychology or not.

The BA Psychology department has almost 1800 students in the department, 7 sections for BA Psychology Hons, and each section has 60 students. The faculty members are not at par with the count required to teach 7 sections. So, you might face some difficulty with the lectures taught because of the huge crowd of students attending the lecture, all at the same time, in the same hall. But this problem is temporary.

Extra-curricular:

• You’ll be told to give a lot of presentations. Which helps improving public speaking skills. There are many extra-curricular activities that help in your overall development. Only proactive students take up the opportunities because this participation in these programs is not compulsory. The schedule in Amity is quite hectic.
• Constant seminars and NGO projects are organized alongside your curriculum. There are summer internships for the students, just the way they are organized for other departments.

Fee Structure:

As far as fee structure is concerned, it will cost you around 1 lakh per year, which is quite high as compared to DU, which has an annual fee of 10,000.

The number of girls in each section is more. The ratio of the number of girls to boys is 8:1. It would be best for you to go for options like Ambedkar University or DU. But Amity is not that bad. You would definitely enjoy those 3 years in the university.
