For psychology students at IILM Gurugram, the classes usually include a mix of lectures, discussions, and practical sessions, usually between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. (with breaks between classes!).

Students also work on assignments that involve observation, analysis, or reflective writing. The schedule leaves enough time for reading, self-study, and project work, which is essential for a subject like psychology.

There is an Amity Student Counselling Services department where trained counsellors support students to overcome personal and professional challenges.
