Message From Head, CCE IIT Mandi

Prof. Tushar Jain

Prof. Tushar Jain

Head, Centre for Continuing Education

At CCE IIT Mandi, our focus is on creating industry-relevant, future-ready learning experiences that equip learners with practical skills and strong conceptual foundations. This AI-ML programme has been carefully designed to provide a structured journey, from fundamentals to advanced applications, ensuring learners build both depth and real-world capability.
The curriculum begins with strong foundations in programming, data handling, and machine learning concepts, followed by core applied learning in model development, evaluation, and deep learning. It culminates in specialization areas such as Generative AI, transformers, and modern AI application workflows, reflecting the latest advancements in the field.
With a strong emphasis on hands-on learning, industry-relevant tools, and disciplined problem-solving approaches, this programme aims to prepare learners for emerging roles in machine learning, and applied AI.
We believe this initiative will enable learners to not only understand AI-ML systems but also apply them effectively in real-world scenarios, contributing meaningfully to the evolving technology landscape.
