Post Graduate Program in AI and Machine Learning

FAQs

• What is AI and Machine Learning?

  AI stands for “artificial intelligence” and refers to the study and development of computer systems that can perform tasks traditionally limited to human intelligence, such as decision-making and speech recognition. The related field of Machine Learning is the study of giving computers the ability to learn and adapt without being explicitly programmed. These closely aligned fields of study are on the cutting edge of technology and in high demand, which is why AI and Machine Learning courses present such an enormous opportunity for students.
