The degree course was introduced in 2020 as the first-ever online degree by an IIT, as part of an exercise to democratise high-quality education in India. The programme is designed to cater to candidates from all educational backgrounds. It is offered three times a year and attracts learners from around the world.

Appreciating the idea behind this scholarship programme, Prof. Andrew Thangaraj, Coordinator, IIT Madras BSc Program, said, “We have students from various backgrounds who are in need of financial assistance. The scholarships from RNTBCI will help them to achieve their goals, which would have been impossible otherwise.”

Dean (Academic Courses), IIT Madras, Prof.PrathapHaridoss, said, “We now see a growing demand for data science and analytics skills. In the BSc program, we have seen students learn the basics of data science, and working professionals, with years of experience, expand their knowledge. There is a drastic shift in every field from business operations to consumer behaviour which requires expertise in data science. Analytics, data science and programming skills are now essential tools across industries which, in turn, makes our students a valuable resource.”
