To secure admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), the first things that come to mind are the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) scores for undergraduate courses and the Joint Admission Test for Masters (JAM) 2025 for postgraduates and PhD programmes.
However, for those seeking to upskill, IITs offer various short-term or certificate courses that don't require JEE or JAM scores for enrollment. These programmes cover fields like data science, AI, machine learning, virtual and augmented reality, robotics, and UX strategy, providing both strong theoretical insights and practical applications.
