Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad and TalentSprint to Equip Young Talent in Artificial Intelligence

Posted on: 06/Mar/2019 2:58:31 PM
The Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad has announced a Professional Program in Artificial Intelligence and Emerging Technologies. Conceived as a first-of-a-kind, five-week residential program in AI and emerging tech for recent graduates and senior college students, it will be offered in partnership with TalentSprint starting May 27, 2019.

IIT Hyderabad (IITH) ranks 9th on the list of India’s elite engineering institutions in 2018, as per the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF). It has ranked in the top ten list consistently for the last three years. IITH is also the first Indian institution to introduce a B.Tech program in AI, which it announced last month. It has been running an M.Tech in AI and ML since 2017. The institution is considered a leader in state-of-art R&D and academic innovations.

It is believed that over 95% of India’s engineering graduates have minimal access to cutting-edge technology expertise. At the same time, it is estimated that 75% of industry activity in the coming decade will require substantial AI capabilities. This program will offer participants a rare option to learn about Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Blockchain, and Quantum Computing from top-rated IITH professors, live on a premier academic campus for five weeks, and obtain a high-value certificate upon completion.
