Programs at Univ.AI are run one-course-at-a-time, and require about 12-15 hours of your time each week, including live classes, labs, office hours, homeworks, and projects.
Every week, you have two classes of about 90 minutes each
Each session lasts about 90 minutes.
If you can commit that kind of time every week to learn a new field, then we welcome you to apply for Univ.AI programs in Data Science, and AI irrespective of your stage of career.
We conduct both group and individual evaluations. Evaluations are based on your class performance (exercises and quizzes), labs, homeworks, and projects. We ask that you always participate and attempt exercises even if you get them wrong: participation counts towards your grade.
Detailed evaluation criteria may vary from course to course, and are published prior to each course. Below is a representative grading structure:
Yes. We have a 2-tier certification system for all our programs. Students who score an A grade are awarded a special Certificate of Exceptional Performance. All students who successfully complete a program receive a Certificate of Successful Completion.
In addition, within a program, for each course you complete successfully, you get a course completion certificate and grade.
All certificates are granted by Univ.AI, and signed by our founding faculty, who are Harvard and UCLA professors.
In addition you have a github repository of all your projects, and a detailed transcript for the program, comprising your grades in each of the courses.
Univ.AI students may reasonably expect to get the best jobs in the industry, commensurate with their prior experience. Folks that come to Univ.AI without any prior work experience, and expect to get top entry-level positions in Data Science, and those with prior work experience, will be able to get more senior-level jobs.
In addition, we invite Univ.AI students to apply for positions at Univ.AI’s Data Science and AI consulting division, which offers top jobs at industry-leading compensation.
Anyone! Data Science and AI are horizontal skill that increasingly professionals of all persuasions will need to know - whether they are social or physical scientists, engineers, or medical professionals.
Our programs are part-time. Students currently enrolled at university, as well as working professionals, can apply for our programs.
At Univ.AI you can take entire programs or individual courses.
Courses
Admission to individual courses is unrestricted, and you can enroll simply by selecting a course from the “courses” page at www.univ.ai and paying the associated fee. You could reproduce an entire program by taking all the courses in any program.
Note: If you choose to complete a program one-course-at-a-time, you will be eligible for program certification. However, you can avail yourself of placement assistance, and other facilities only after completion of program certification.
Those enrolled into programs get access to employment, internship and other enrichment opportunities well ahead of program completion.
Programs
Admission to programs is a two step process -
Application and test
You need to complete an application at www.univ.ai, which includes an aptitude test that will test your knowledge in basic Python Maths and Statistics.
Based on your test score, you are offered admission to the program of your choice and offered one or more of tuition payment options (including, if eligible, an Income Sharing Agreement).
Alternative ways of getting admitted
You can take either AI-0 or AI-1 as a stand-alone course, and if you score a B in AI-0, or a B+ or higher in AI-1 and secure admission to the program of your choice.
Our DSLP, Deep Learning Leaders Program and Certificate in Data Science programs require you to know (high-school level) - linear algebra, calculus, and basic statistics. In addition we require you to know Python programming.
We conduct an entrance exam as part of the application to test you on the prerequisites to ensure that you are well prepared to succeed in our programs.

At present we offer only part-time programs, and sessions are conducted in the evenings (Indian Time Zone). They are designed such that working professionals can expect to finish them in a 6-9 month period with 12-15 hours of work per week (with breaks between courses).
The workload is calibrated to keep the rate of learning new concepts at a level that allows you enough time to learn them thoroughly, and explore all practical nuances of application.
Each of our programs comprise a series of 5-6 week courses. With few exceptions, most individual courses are 6-weeks long.
The learning system is entirely LIVE and comprises Interactive classes, labs, office hours, homework assignments, and an end-of-course project.
Each week, for the first 4 weeks, there are two classes, one-to-labs, and office hours. In addition you are assigned homework. The final week is for a group project.
There is a short break at the end of each course and the start of the next one. For more details, please refer to the how it works page of our website.
