IIT Delhi Launches Fourth Batch of Certificate Programme in Machine Learning and Deep Learning
New Delhi, 22nd August 2024: The Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) has launched the fourth batch of its prestigious Certificate Programme in Machine Learning and Deep Learning. This programme is designed to equip professionals with the latest skills and in-depth knowledge required to excel in the rapidly evolving domain of machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI).
As AI and ML technologies continue to transform various industries, there is a growing demand for skilled professionals who can leverage these technologies effectively. The global Machine Learning market size was valued at USD 19.45 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 188.34 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 37.47% from 2023 to 2030. In India, the machine learning market is expected to experience similarly remarkable growth, with a CAGR of 36.11% from 2024 to 2030, reaching a market volume of USD 17.87 billion by 2030.
Through this programme, learners will develop proficiency in efficient Python programming, mastering the skills to effectively load and pre-process data from both online and offline databases using the Pandas library. Furthermore, they will delve into the fundamental principles and challenges of machine learning, designing and training neural networks with the powerful Keras and TensorFlow modules. By the end of the programme, learners will be equipped to design and implement a range of machine learning and deep learning techniques, applying them to real-world problems and applications.
Speaking at the announcement of the fourth batch, Dr. Manav Bhatnagar, Head CEPQIP, Brigadier Bhopinder Singh Chair Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Delhi said, “At IIT Delhi, our mission is to deliver education that is at the forefront of innovation, aligning with the evolving needs of the industry. As Machine Learning and Deep Learning continue to revolutionise industries worldwide, our certificate programme is designed to provide learners with a rigorous and comprehensive education that combines theoretical foundations with practical expertise. We take pride in empowering individuals to become leaders in the field of Artificial Intelligence, shaping its future and driving transformation across sectors.”
The six-month Certificate Programme in Machine Learning and Deep Learning is meticulously curated by esteemed IIT Delhi faculty and includes comprehensive coursework covering critical aspects of machine learning and deep learning. Learners will delve into subjects like Python, Data Processing, Data Analysis, Neural Networks, Deep Learning, Architectures and Recent Advances, NLP, among others. The programme will be conducted via the state-of-the-art Interactive Learning (IL) platform and delivered in Direct-to-Device (D2D) mode. This will include 76 hours each of online and self-paced learning, a three-week capstone project, a masterclass and an immersion session for interaction between faculty and learners in the IIT Delhi campus.
