B.Sc. in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence at Madras University

Madras University, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, offers B.Sc. in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence as a 3-year undergraduate degree. Fees for the full course come to ₹1.69 lakh – ₹8.01 lakh (roughly ₹56,000 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.

Madras University is a other institute, founded in 1857. This page brings together what is on record for this course at Madras University — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most B.Sc 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 Madras 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.Sc programmes at Madras University as a group.

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

To get into B.Sc. in Computer Science with Artificial Intelligence, you usually need Class 12 with Science subjects.

Admission to this kind of course is usually through CUET and merit. Reserved-category candidates generally get a relaxation in the minimum marks. Check Madras University's prospectus for the exact cut-off this year.

In most years, admission follows these steps:

1. Check that you meet the eligibility above and register for the entrance exam in time.
