The placement record of MBA Biotechnology of Amity University, Noida, is not decent. Amity Institute of Biotechnology is different from the School of Engineering & Technology. The school of Engineering and Technology offers BTech courses except for Nanotech and Biotech. 

Amity University Noida MBA+B.Tech and B.Tech placement is handled by the same placement cell (Amity University Technical Placement Center). Thus, no proper placement record of MBA students is available with the university. The opportunity of getting placed in managerial posts in MNCs is unlikely. You will end up having job offers proposed for B.Tech graduates.

Therefore, you should not opt for the MBA Biotechnology program from Amity University, as its placement cell for MBA biotechnology students is not up to the mark. 

For managerial courses, on-campus placement offers a major chunk of good placement opportunities. So, it would be better if you pursue your graduation separately and go for your MBA later from an institute offering specialized management courses.

The average annual fee in Amity is around INR 3.11 Lakhs and that of Acharya is also around INR 3 Lakhs. But the first year fee in Acharya is around 6 lakhs while for the rest of the years being around INR 1.8 Lakhs. The overall amount remains nearly the same, it’s about affordability here.

Placements:

• While there are some civil department-specific placements in AIT, students mostly get placed in IT and Software companies.

• The Average package at AIT is around 7 LPA, it’s around 4.5 LPA at Amity, considering 1700 placed students and 525 recruiters for that year, and those are some good placement stats.

• Few core companies that recruit from Amity are Eleation, ZTE, Gemalto, etc.

Amity also has a Departmental Research cell concentrating on various aspects of civil engineering and its recent advances.
