All kids have access to the university. They pay kidZos(KidZania currency) as tuition fees and identify the subject they wish to pursue. The disciplines featured at the university offer undergraduate, graduate and PHD degrees. By earning a degree at the university, kids enhance their value on the job market at KidZania Mumbai as they get higher pay (kidZos) for their increased knowledge.

These specially designed modules for each subject will help the kid to receive a holistic view of the field they major from the university.  On passing the test, they would receive their Amity University ID card and be awarded with a Bachelor’s degree allowing them to earn more at other activities related to their field of graduation.
