If you are looking at B.Tech. in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science, Siddhant College of Engineering in Pune runs it as a 3-4 year, full-time undergraduate course. The total fee on record is ₹2.26 lakh – ₹2.6 lakh.

At its core, the programme covers 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.

Siddhant College of Engineering is a private institute, founded in 2005. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Siddhant College of Engineering — 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 Siddhant College of Engineering for the current semester-wise plan.

Here is how the fee on record breaks down. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise, and apply to B.Tech programmes at Siddhant College of Engineering as a group.
