Course Curriculum Overview:
The curriculum is very good. It starts off very easy, building core concepts and extrapolates from it, in the later stages.
It's focused very much on the fact that these skills will run the next generation.
The faculty is amazing and they keep live sessions, every week, to clear all the doubts. It is like an online college, with the infrastructure done right.

Placement Experience:
During 3rd year, placements are going to be happen. We can register for placement portal, the companiy profiles were appeared. We can apply to companies, and processing. So many offers were come from many companies which are stipened. Averag epackage is 25 lakhs, minimum and maximum packages are 5 lakhs and 1 crore. Moat of the students get placed in different companies. Nearly 75% students get placed. I they were not placed, they will be recommended by seniors from our college who are finished and placed before us. And some people were not sitting for placements as they are interested in public sector examinations like UPSC, groups 1, 2, etc. also some students start their start up ideas. I want to take placement first. Then I want to continue for 2 to 3 years then I want to write for govt jobs like IES and all in core side. Also I want to try for group 2 exams.

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.
