Indian Institute of Technology-Madras has launched five courses in artificial intelligence through its SWAYAM Plus programme, which seeks to promote employability-focused skilling courses.
These 25- to 45-hour online courses are offered free of cost and are targeted at students, faculty and working professionals.
"The key focus of these courses is to make AI available for everyone as no prior AI knowledge is required to apply for these courses," the institute said in a news release.
The five courses are: AI in Physics which will look at the use of AI tools such as machine learning and neural networks in solving real-world physics problems; AI in Chemistry; AI in Accounting; Cricket Analytics with AI and AI/ML using Python.
“These courses, which are aligned to the National Credit Framework (NCrF), can be taken by higher education institutions as a credit programme for the upcoming academic calendar as well,” said R Sarathi, dean (planning) and SWAYAM Plus coordinator at IIT-Madras.
The courses are open to undergraduate and postgraduate students from all academic backgrounds (engineering, science, commerce, arts, interdisciplinary), according to the news release. "No prior experience in AI or coding is required as basic digital literacy and enthusiasm to learn should be sufficient," it said.
The courses are developed by experts at IIT-Madras.
