Do you want to be a data scientist? Let me flip or amend this question a bit. Do you want to be a successful data scientist and witness unprecedented career growth. If this statement still hasn’t sunk and hit you hard then you can take all the time in the world. In the meantime, I’d like to shed light on artificial intelligence and machine learning course offered by NGA SCE. NGA SCE, as many of you may be knowing that it is a long distance arm of NMIMS.
Many may be already tempted to shrug off this course as another hyped up course. But doing so would be a hasty move. To start my argument, I’d like to begin by arguing that this artificial intelligence and machine learning course brings with it the trademark quality of NMIMS. Students will enjoy same high quality of education that NMIMS has been unwaveringly exhibiting in the field of higher education for several decades now.
Before bringing forth more unique features, I’d like to first share information on the eligibility requirements for this course.
