The Indian Institute of Technology, Mandi (IIT-Mandi) has collaborated with National Skills Development Corporation (NSDC) to launch certificate courses on data science and machine learning. The programme is set to commence in the first week of November.
IIT Mandi faculty members will conduct the course through live-streaming sessions.
The programme will allow students to build a foundation in data science and specialize in machine learning with Python to enhance data-driven decision-making. Upon completion, students can explore careers as data scientists, business analysts, data analysts, and business intelligence professionals on new-age skills.
These are six- and nine-month certificate and advanced certificate programmes, respectively. The selection of candidates will be based on an eligibility test conducted on October 15 and 16. Upon course completion, the programme certificate will be collectively issued by IIT Mandi and NSDC.
Professor Tushar Jain, head at Center for Continuing Education (CCE), said, “The global demand for data science and machine learning experts is growing rapidly. These certificate programmes are designed to impart these skills to students.”
The live online certification course would cover all the fundamental and advanced skills in the tools used in data science, deep learning, machine learning, and image processing. The course’s main objective is peer-to-peer learning and to gain experience of sessions from faculty of IIT Mandi to boost the overall professional journey of the applicants.
