Benefit theis program

Courses are taught by faculty of IIT Madras/other reputed institutes as well as experts from

the industry.

Unlike many competitive exams which work on the philosophy of elimination and selection and

admit a very limited number of learners into various programs based on their performance

relative to that of others, in this program there are specific qualifying criteria, and a

significantly large number of learners can enter.

Learners of any background, be it engineering, sciences, humanities, arts, medicine, law, etc

can attempt and join this programs. There is no limitation on the age of the learner or their

geographical location

    •  Admission to the program
      1. Regular entryJEE-based entry
          Regular Entry into Foundation level [[( jee examination not required)]] To enter the Foundation level, applicants have to pass the Qualifier exam. The Foundation courses allow for interested applicants with a variety of educational backgrounds to be trained in the basics (Math, Statistics, Computational Thinking, Python programming and English) required to take up the Diploma level of Programming & Data Science courses. Entry: Via the Qualifier exam into the Foundation level  
    • Eligibility to Apply for the Qualifier test
      1. Anyone who has passed Class 12 or equivalent can apply irrespective of age or
      academic background. Those who qualify can join the program immediately. View list of accepted class 12 equivalents.
      1. School students who have appeared for their Class 11 final exams can apply
      irrespective of their group/stream/board. Those who qualify can join the program after passing Class 12. It is expected that the applicants have studied Mathematics and English in Class 10. No additional eligibility other than the ones mentioned above is required to apply for the qualifier process or join the foundational level courses after clearing the qualifying exam. All regular entry applicants must go through the Qualifier Process to earn admission to the Foundation Level.
    • Qualifier Preparation: The qualifier process includes 4 weeks of coursework based on lecture videos, assignments, and live sessions of the four foundational level courses – English I, Mathematics for Data Science I, Statistics for Data Science I, and Computational Thinking – that will be provided through our online portal. Every week an assignment must be submitted for grading in each course. Qualifier Exam: At the end of the 4 weeks, a qualifier exam will be conducted for eligible candidates based on the content covered in the 4 weeks of study. Eligibility to appear for the qualifier exam (regular entry): In each course, the average of the best 2 out of the first 3 weekly assignment scores will be calculated. Only those who get the minimum required average assignment scores in all four courses (as given below) will be allowed to appear for the Qualifier Exam. Minimum Average Assignment Score required in each course General Learner            40%(Minimum Average Assignment Score required in each course)
    • SC / ST / PwD (with 40%disability)    30%(Minimum Average Assignment Score required in each course)
    • PwD with 40% disability & SC / ST      30%(Minimum Average Assignment Score required in each course)
    • OBC-NCL / EWS             35%(Minimum Average Assignment Score required in each course)  
    • JEE-based Entry: Candidates who qualified to appear for JEE Advanced 2022 can directly join our program in the Sep 2022/Jan 2023/May 2023 Term by following the steps below:
      1.  Watch video content and submit weekly assignments for first 4 weeks of the four
      foundational level courses – English I, Mathematics for Data Science I, Statistics for Data Science I and Computational Thinking. (This is identical to the “Qualifier preparation” content in the regular entry process)
      1. They are all made Eligible to appear for qualifier exam, irrespective of their scores in
      the first 4 weeks.
      1. It is mandatory to appear for the in-person quiz of 4 hours duration conducted at the
