PREREQUISITES: The diploma requires an undergraduate knowledge of statistics (descriptive statistics, regression, sampling distributions, hypothesis testing, interval estimation etc.), calculus (derivatives), linear algebra (vectors & matrix transformation) and probability (conditional probability/Bayes theorem).
The admission process will involve a short screening test on the above topics to assess participant readiness for the diploma.
Participants are required to possess an intermediate knowledge of Python since all assignments/application projects will be done using the Python programming language. Emeritus offers a complimentary Python for Data Analytics certificate course to meet this prerequisite. Participants who successfully complete this certificate course will receive a certificate of completion from Emeritus Institute of Management.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms are transforming systems, experiences, processes, and entire industries. It’s no wonder that business leaders see these data-driven technologies as fundamental for the future—and that practitioners fluent in both fields are in high demand.
We are fascinated by their world-changing potential, and we’ve created the Postgraduate Diploma in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, to help students understand the fundamentals of AI and machine learning and how to apply them to solve complex, real-world problems.
