Student Reviews
After just 6 months of starting my AI and ML journey, I have been rewarded with a Data Scientist position in Tech Mahindra with a very hefty package and this is just after going halfway through the program.
According to me this particular program is pretty useful and adds value because of its structured approach, strict schedule, deadlines and the discipline in learning that the overall process brings along.
I appreciate the platform upGrad has provided and how they have arranged modules and assignments. Modules are locked until you complete the previous one, so it feels like clearing a semester and going to the next one.
