Galgotias University launches an industry-integrated AI & ML programme with Microsoft and byteXL

Designed for the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence, the four-year programme combines strong computer-science fundamentals with specialised, project-based learning. Students tackle real-world problems through live projects and case studies, building practical, job-ready capabilities beyond the classroom. The curriculum is continually aligned with industry needs, preparing graduates for high-demand roles such as Machine Learning Engineer, AI Application Developer, Data Scientist, MLOps Engineer and Cloud AI Specialist.

What the Programme Offers
The programme is structured around six core pillars: next-generation AI technologies, Microsoft certifications, career-launch support, high-demand AI roles, emerging AI domains and industry research. Together, these pillars are designed to give students an edge in a competitive, technology-driven job market.

Industry-collaborative research is central to the learning experience, covering Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Reinforcement Learning, Computer Vision, Speech Recognition and Robotics. Working alongside faculty and industry mentors, students gain exposure to cutting-edge tools, research practices and emerging AI domains.

Globally Recognised Microsoft Azure Certifications
A key feature of the programme is the opportunity to earn Microsoft Azure certifications recognised by employers worldwide. These include Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900), Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-901), Azure Data Fundamentals (DP-900), Azure AI App and Agent Developer (AI-103), Azure MLOps Engineer (AI-300), Azure AI Cloud Developer (AI-200) and Azure SQL AI Developer Associate (DP-800). These credentials enable students to validate their skills and strengthen their profiles with recruiters from day one.

Placement Assistance from byteXL
Placement and career support are integral to the programme. Through byteXL's dedicated placement assistance, students receive structured, end-to-end career-launch support, including industry mentorship, internships, soft-skills and communication training, aptitude and technical interview preparation, mock interviews and access to byteXL's network of hiring partners. The support is designed to help students translate their skills and certifications into strong career outcomes and placements with leading technology companies.

Commenting on the launch, Dr. Dhruv Galgotia, Chief Executive Officer, Galgotias University, said, “AI education cannot be limited to teaching tools that may be outdated by the time students graduate. Our focus is on helping students develop the judgement to frame problems, work responsibly with data and models, and take AI systems from experiment to deployment. By combining Microsoft's technology ecosystem with byteXL's applied learning and career support, the programme creates a structured path from computer-science foundations to industry-ready AI practice.”

Galgotias University is ranked 16th among India's top private universities, third among private universities in Uttar Pradesh and 46th among India's top private and government universities. It has also been globally ranked for three consecutive years. The NAAC A+ accredited university is now accepting applications for the programme.
