IIT Bombay introduces online PGD in Computer Science to empower professionals

To enhance the technical proficiency of professionals and graduates in the sector, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay has announced the launch of its e-Postgraduate Diploma (ePGD) in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), an online program.

The course, which will begin in June 2025, is currently accepting enrollments.

The comprehensive curriculum of this ePGD includes six courses covering topics such as advanced programming, computing systems, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI).

The program will conclude with a graduation ceremony on campus, where candidates who successfully complete the course will be granted alumni status.

The ePGD in CSE is ideal for recent graduates, software developers, IT professionals, data scientists, machine learning practitioners, engineers, and individuals with significant on-the-job experience who wish to formally validate their knowledge with a postgraduate degree.

Candidates must have a BE, BTech, or BS (4 years) degree, or a higher degree in a related field of computer science.

Candidates with an equivalent degree from any engineering background may also be considered, subject to meeting additional requirements.

To apply for the IIT Bombay PG Diploma course 2025, interested candidates should visit the official website of the IIT Bombay CSE department.
