Brainware University, Kolkata, West Bengal, offers B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning) as a 4-year undergraduate degree. The total fee on record is ₹1.7 lakh – ₹5.5 lakh, which works out to about ₹43,000 a year.

Expect to spend most of your time on how machines learn from data: programming in Python, probability and statistics, machine learning, neural networks, computer vision and natural language processing, with projects on real datasets.

Brainware University is a other institute, founded in 2016. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Brainware University — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most B.Tech programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations (mathematics, science and programming), the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means how machines learn from data: programming in Python, probability and statistics, machine learning, neural networks, computer vision and natural language processing, with projects on real datasets. Typical first jobs: machine learning engineer, AI developer, data scientist or research engineer. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Brainware University for the current semester-wise plan.

The fee figures on record for this course are below. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise, and apply to B.Tech programmes at Brainware University as a group.

Colleges revise fees most years, and hostel, transport and exam charges are often billed separately. Confirm the current figure with Brainware University before you pay anything.

To get into B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning), you usually need Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics, plus Chemistry, Computer Science or another technical subject; most colleges ask for roughly 45–60% in these subjects.
