Quotes
Professor Vinay J Ribeiro
Faculty Coordinator for IIT Bombay’s e-PGD (CS & AI) and faculty member in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering
“The programme is intended to go beyond teaching participants how to operate AI‑based tools. It will focus on developing a foundational understanding of both Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, which can help learners remain adaptable and competitive as technology continues to become increasingly centred around AI.”
