The Story in Brief
IIT Roorkee has started a four-month postgraduate certificate programme in Building AI-Powered Business Applications for working professionals. The course is open to graduates or diploma holders with at least three years of work experience, the institute said in a statement.
Classes will be held for three hours each on Saturdays and Sundays. The fee is Rs 1,09,000 plus GST. Participants will learn to build AI agents, enterprise knowledge assistants, and no-code AI applications using tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Dify. The programme includes hands-on exercises, mini-projects, and a capstone project. Hindustan Times reported the launch.
The Indian Opinion
This programme targets a real gap: professionals who want to use AI but cannot code. Yet the Rs 1.09-lakh price tag and weekend schedule limit access to those already in high-paying jobs or sponsored by employers. The test will be how many enrol and, more importantly, whether graduates genuinely design production-ready AI solutions or just earn another certificate. Will IIT Roorkee publish placement or project outcome data? That would separate hype from value.
