Artificial Intelligence has captured the imagination of the entire world with its potential to solve complex socio-economic problems of our times. Focused national efforts are underway in every country to derive the maximum benefit from AI and become a world leader in the field. India can get an edge over other countries by training its youth with the aim to fulfil the critical needs of the industry and to fill the gap in the availability of high-end AI scientists and engineers. The vision of the M.Tech. programmes, therefore, is to impart rigorous training in the foundations and deep technology of Artificial Intelligence to produce graduates who can become world leaders in AI and lead India’s march towards leadership in this important area.
