Amity University Haryana, Gurugram, has been ‘Empanelled as Higher Education Institute’ under PM YUVA Yojna by National Institute for Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development (NIESBUD), Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, Government of India.

  • To educate and equip, students with potential and early-stage entrepreneurs
  • To support entrepreneurs through Entrepreneurship Hubs (E-Hubs)
  • To connect entrepreneurs to related networks of peers, mentors, incubators, funding and business services
  • To catalyze a cultural shift to support aspiring entrepreneurs

The university is starting formal training of Entrepreneurship under the banner of AUH-E-Cell from forthcoming session aimed to groom 2500 entrepreneurs.

Amity University Haryana, Gurugram is in partnership with IMA (Institute of Management Accountants - USA), Wiley and Miles Education, US CMA (Certified Management Accountant), which is a globally recognized, advanced-level qualification appropriate for accountants and financial professionals in business. Achieving the CMA demonstrates professional expertise in financial planning, analysis, control, decision support, and professional ethics – skills that are in demand by organizations around the world. Basically, CMAs can explain the "why" behind numbers, not just the "what". And that is why the CMA qualification gives one greater credibility, higher earning potential, and ultimately, a seat at the leadership platform. The US CMA has been integrated into the university curriculum to enable the students to cover all the 12 core competencies, included in US CMA, in the first 4 semesters itself. Thereafter, in Semester 5, students are expected to additionally appear for and pass the 2 CMA exams:

• Part 1 - Financial Planning, Performance & Analytics

• Part 2 - Strategic Financial Management

Thereafter, when students appear for placements with MNC’s in early Semester 6, they will stand apart as a university graduate who’s an IMA member and has cleared the globally-recognized CMA exams.

Note: US professional qualifications like CMA mandate a university degree, and given the fact that university education covers a vast majority of the content, the professional exam only focuses on the skill-gaps which are needed for the profession. Therefore, unlike various non-US qualifications, US professional qualifications “complement” university education and have lesser number of exams - for instance, 2 exams on US CMA. For more information on the US CMA program, visit www.imanet.org or www.mileseducation.com/cma.
