IIT Madras Online Degree

Course Curriculum Overview:

For me, I was ambitious to join an IIT campus. Because of the online degree platform, the student ratio is much more vast than no one could imagine. They provide recorded classes and offline exams depending on their syllabus. Exams aren't competitive like JEE. But yeah it is a bit hard to crack the exams.

IIT Madras BS in Data Science and Programming program Review

Likes

After every lecture, there are 4-5 questions we can solve regarding that particular class.
Learn on your own time, if you want to learn at night learn at the night, if you want a week break, then take it. Not a problem at all.
Doubt Solving Techniques, We can solve our doubts in live lecture, unofficial Whatsapp/discord group, official discourse forum.

Dislikes

They are not spading awareness regarding DSA and discourse.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I want to make a career in the AIML field and I like hybrid degree courses that's the reason I choose this degree. faculty: student ratio is around 1:150 but no need to worry about this. Because when you complete 4 months of this degree, then they will provide you access to the student's forum, there you will find 100s of students who will be ready to help you with your queries. The faculty is awesome. One of the best content. Exams are taken every month, you have to go nearby TCS Ion digital zone for that, oppe exam for coding subjects and projects for some courses. Exams are moderate.

What is your review of IIT Madras data science program?

NileshBS in Data Science from IIT Madras (Graduated 2023)

The online Data Science program at IIT Madras is a great opportunity for someone who can not attend regular college because of financial constraints, illness, or other reasons. The online BS in Data Science and Application allows students to gain knowledge of this field from one of the most reputed engineering colleges in India.

The online lectures are taught by experienced faculty members from IITM. What I found most interesting was the professors' distinct approach to teaching. The students are routinely assisted by committed and supportive staff.

IIT Madras has undertaken a unique approach to imparting their expertise in the highly demanded field of Data Science.

What are your thoughts on IIT Madras offering a bachelor's degree/diploma online?

Shraya HazraB.Tech Mechanical Engineering & Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati (2020)

It is a full-time degree or diploma and so it will have more value than online. But if we compare IIT Madras’ online degree or diploma with any other college’s then it is better.

The duration of the course is 3 years. The mode of training is online, the lectures are mostly recorded and partly live sessions.

Whether the course will be good or not that depends on what subject you are planning to pursue. If you opt for a subject related to technology, then it is not a good option. This is because technology cannot be learned through books or audiovisual. It requires you to be present in the field to gain experience and knowledge.
