“SAMAGAM-2023”, Orientation Programme held for Amity University Online students
Amity University Online organized “SAMAGAM-2023”, an Orientation Programme, for students, with an aim to provide them an opportunity to experience the vibrant Amity culture, meet the faculty, interact and network with their peers.
Addressing the students of Amity University Online, Mr. Ajit Chauhan, Chairman, Amity University Online, averred, “Amity University Online is committed to providing the best online education to the students which is at par with regular programs. Amity University has the best infrastructure and highly advanced technology which enables the students to avail the resources of the University efficiently and effectively. In this uncertain world, online learning is a great medium to improve your skills, for your career progression and Amity University Online students have been very well placed across all industries, ensuring that each student becomes a success story. Thousands of students from Amity campuses in India and abroad have joined this Orientation Programme today which will provide them an opportunity to experience the world-class Amity campus and will also serve as a great platform for networking.”
Highlighting the significance of the Programme, Prof. (Dr.) Balvinder Shukla, Vice Chancellor Amity University Uttar Pradesh, stated, “This Programme is extremely important for online students to familiarise themselves with the faculty, campus and their colleagues since they are not able to experience the infrastructural facilities provided by Amity, in online mode. Under the NEP 2020, UGC has provided a lot of flexibility to online students, wherein they can pursue various programmes in online mode, while continuing with their profession/career. The three-tier strategy of providing education at Amity includes understanding the industry requirements, converting those requirements into course curriculum/teaching pedagogy and enhancing the skills of the students through various value-addition programmes.”
Welcoming the students, Prof. Abhinash Kumar, Director, Amity University Online, said, “Amity University believes in providing equal opportunities to all its students whether, they are part of regular programmes or online programmes. During Covid 19, Amity University Online provided online education to more than 2.5 lakh students. The students are educated through various modes including webinars, expert talks and “AMITUTOR” which is a special 24*7 helpline to assist them with any queries/support required.”
During the Orientation Program, students were also provided with information about the “Academic Philosophy of Amity University Online”, “Effective Teaching-Learning in Online mode via LMS (Learning Management System)”, “Academic Support Services”, “Student Aspirations and Career Progression” and “Amity University Online Examination System”. Over 3,000 students attended the programme physically and over one lakh students joined the Orientation Programme, online, from across the globe.
