Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI&ML) are the two domains emerged as the driving force of advanced technologies. It introduces automation to every other field and rapidly transforms the way of people work. The career in AI is going to be the most demanding job worldwide. Every industry adopts AI&ML as part of their system and hires more number of experts and students from this field. The lack of skilled professionals is a most significant challenge faced by the industry. 

NCET introduces 4-year AI&ML department on the base of computer science and engineering to serve the needs of industry. The program curriculum helps the student to develop AI&ML models to identify patterns, recommend actions and perform tasks. The student specialized from this program are required in robotics, natural language processing, computer vision, cyber security, business intelligence and manufacturing industries. The AIML department of NCET has well equipped labs and infrastructure facilities to train the students with advanced technologies. The faculty is well-trained, determined and dedicated to ensure the industry required potentials to the students.
