NMIMS Global, India’s Top Ed-Tech University & INSOFE, Asia’s top Data Science school launch a 24-month online Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Ops
Mumbai, February 25, 2021: Data is the no longer the new oil, it is now the world’smost essential resource for business profitability and innovation.The immeasurable applications of data have created an insatiable demand for skilled professionals who are proficient in tools that drive automation, maximise insights, create lucidity & more from data; over1 million Artificial Intelligence professionals will be needed by 2021 globally.Therefore, NMIMS Global with knowledge partner INSOFE have designed the online 24-month Master of Science program in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Operations (MS in AI and ML Ops) to provide working professionals with an opportunity to create a strong foothold in an industry poised to grow to US$ 275 billion by the end of 2023.
“A recent study found that 30% of tasks in 60% job will be automated and 80m US&15m UK jobs might be affected*a but the fact we must pay attention to, is that the jobs themselves won’t entirely disappear; rather, they will be redefined,” says Rajiv Shah, Director and CEO, NMIMS Global, “thisMSin AI &ML Opsprogram will allow a student to upgrade, acquire and ace in-demand tools and skills without having to pause their career”. Moreover,94% of organisations now believe that AI will help create more opportunities than be a threat to their industry. *“The MS program has been designed to provide working executives with the skills necessary to compete in the rapidly growing market for Data Science professionals.” Dr. Dakshinamurthy V Kolluru, President, INSOFE added further stating that, “enterprises in the private and public sectors need executives, analysts, and specialists with advanced training in analytics technology as well as business management. Our MS program curriculum is designed to help students increase their skills in each of these areas, and students exit the program ready to compete in the world of Big Data.”
SKYROCKET YOUR CAREER GROWTH GRAPH
There has been a 45% increase in adoption of AI in India*band almost 65% of the jobs in the IT sector will witness transition in job roles over the next five years due to automation and digitisation*c. Currently, there are close to 91000 artificial intelligence personnel working across enterprises in India with a median salary of INR 14.7 Lakhs*f. Due to this phenomenon the Indian tech industry is poised to add 1.38 lakh jobs in FY20-21 alone*e
Career assistance is an integral part of the MS in AI & ML Ops program. Learners will get access to 500-plus top hiring partners of NMIMS Global & INSOFE and also get access to NMIMS Global’sjob portal and gain CV & interview assistance.
GAIN A COMPETITIVE EDGE WITH AN IMMERSIVE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
The Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Ops is designed to provide deep technical training to the student in the field of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. The program offers 750+ learning hours including 220+ teaching hours & 212+ lab hours in a flexible online-blended interactive format specifically designed for working professionals.
It adopts a holistic approach that allows students to apply knowledge via multiple routes such as internal assessment, examination while gaining hands-on experience at a Bootcamp and acquiring in-depth knowledge through a Scholar-guided Masters’ Dissertation.
The 5-day residential on-campus bootcamp will be held in Mumbai and provide a hands-on opportunity to solve real industry problems, build and scale prototypes and applications. Similarly, the Master’s Dissertation project of over 200 hours will encourage exhaustive study and lending experience on using complex research-driven data and applying it to solve business problems spread across 20 weeks. Students can choose from the following industry-relevant electives: Advanced Machine Learning areas like Computer Vision, Natural language processing (NLP), Big Data, Robotics, and Reinforcement Learning. Students will be able to;
- Understand & solve complex machine learning problems with competencies in data mining, regression analysis, text mining, and predictive analysis
- Gain confidence and mastery in the entire AI algorithm development and deployment cycle (understanding business problem to analytical and mathematical problem, data understanding, data preparation, modelling, evaluation, and deployment)
- Analyse& solve big data problems using engines like Apache Spark & Hadoop Ecosystem.Get competencies in algorithm development and visualization tools including R, Python & Tableau and specialised advanced machine learning areas such as NLP, Big Data, Robotics & Reinforcement learning.
- Draw strong computational and application architecture knowledge to deploy and scale AI and ML applications.
During the program, students will learnfrom the sharpest leading minds in the field of AI & ML. They will gain academic and industry insight from expert faculty including 50+ nationally acclaimed scholars, PhD. Holders from Top Universities with75+ patents, 20+ years average work experience and 300+ research papers. They together bring depth in the approach to Data Science education.
Knowledge partner INSOFE has routinely ranked amongst the top Data Science schools in the country and has academic affiliations with several high-ranking Indian and International Universities and several prominent institute-industry.
