I was also confused about eligibility when I was looking at MBA options in Data Science and Business Analytics. From what I found while comparing programmes, eligibility usually depends on your graduation degree, minimum marks, and the specific admission rules of the university. You don't necessarily need a technical background for every programme, although having some comfort with numbers and basic data concepts definitely helps.

A friend of mine came from a non-technical graduation background and initially worried that Data Science would be too difficult. He eventually realised that the business side of analytics was just as important as the technical concepts.

I also compared Amity with other online options and looked at LPU Online's MBA programmes because I wanted flexibility alongside work. LPU Online offers UGC-entitled undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.

I'd suggest checking the current eligibility criteria of the specific Amity programme you're considering, because requirements can differ between programmes and admission sessions.
