CRSU is a other institute, founded in 2014. This page brings together what is on record for this course at CRSU — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most PGD programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, 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 turning raw data into decisions: statistics, Python and SQL, data cleaning, visualisation and machine learning. Typical first jobs: data analyst, data scientist, business analyst or analytics consultant.

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

This is what the course costs, as recorded. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise, and apply to PGD programmes at CRSU as a group.
