We aspire to be rooted in Indian values with global impact. We look forward to starting the inaugural postgraduate programmes that combine academic excellence with industry relevance,” Dipak Jain, vice-chancellor, Jio Institute, said.

The AI and DS programme have been designed for early-career professionals who aspire to become full-stack data scientists. The students will be well equipped for various roles, including AI Researchers, Data Scientists, and Industrial and Societal Entrepreneurs. At the same time, the DM and MC programme is designed for early-career professionals who aspire to build a career in areas such as Marketing Communications, Brand Consulting, Digital Marketing, Marketing Analytics, and Consumer Research.
