Focus Areas
.
of the program
Data Analytics
Data is the new oil of this century and gaining insights into this data which may be available in structured or unstructured form using data mining, data analytics, etc. requires the corresponding skill set to be able to fetch the non-cognizant inference from the data. This inference is very much required to enable effective decision making by executives. The courses in this specialization are specifically designed to cater to these requirements.
Artificial Intelligence
The automated systems in the various domains have evolved from simple programming based systems to AI programming based systems that could take intelligent decisions based on the training model and the current input data presented to the system. This focus area helps to inculcate such specialized skill set for a graduate to be able to develop such intelligent systems.
Network Computing
Modern applications run across multiple machines either in a parallel and distributed systems fashion or as an n-tier client server system fashion. Hence, it is important that an MCA graduate is attributed with the knowledge of network computing phenomena to be able to develop such systems and this focus area is intended to achieve this.
