This programme is specifically designed and offered in response to the
rapidly developing field of data science and AI that are currently gaining
unprecedented traction in the industry as well as in the job market worldwide. As
such, there will be rich opportunities for specially skilled graduating students to
work across multiple domains of the digital economy and participate in enhancing
India’s global competitiveness. The programme hence aims to produce the next
generation of highly skilled post graduates that are required to continue propel the
high-value economy growth of our country. This programme strikes a balance between
Computer Science, Statistics and Mathematical Sciences, which enables it to provide
a more comprehensive training in terms of the computing aspects of data science. It
is also system-and-product driven in that it covers the essentials in software and
product development, and it provides students with a large amount of practical
trainings.
The programme is structured to equip students with the following:
- To impart principled understanding of data Science field
- To understand methods to extract non-obvious and useful patterns from large data sets
- To acquire skill sets required for a data scientist
- To build machine learning models for challenging problems
