M.Tech CSE AI/ML
The most advanced M.Tech college in Kolkata experience for engineers seeking deep research expertise in AI and Machine Learning. Students publish in IEEE and Springer conferences, work on funded research projects, and earn industry certifications. As the top AI/ML courses in Kolkata at the postgraduate level, this program attracts engineers from across West Bengal and beyond.
About the M.Tech CSE AI/ML programme
A two-year research-oriented masters for engineers who want depth rather than another survey of the field. Coursework front-loads advanced machine learning theory and research methodology in year one; year two is largely thesis, with the expectation that the work is submitted to a peer-reviewed venue. Students typically work within a faculty research group rather than alone.
Why study M.Tech CSE AI/ML at TIU
Thesis work is scoped towards IEEE or Springer submission, with supervision on writing as well as research.
Literature review, experimental design and reproducibility are a graded module, not something you are left to absorb.
Students join an active faculty group, so the thesis sits in a line of work rather than starting cold.
The programme is structured so a strong thesis converts naturally into doctoral study at TIU or elsewhere.
What you study, year by year

Tools and platforms
Who this programme suits
- Engineers who want to do research rather than apply existing tooling
- Graduates planning a PhD or a research-engineer role
- Working engineers looking to move from application development into ML research
Where this degree takes you
M.Tech CSE AI/ML: common questions
No. Research methodology is taught in semester 1, and the first year is designed to bring engineers from an industry or coursework background up to research standard.
Yes — semesters 3 and 4 are substantially thesis work, and defence is a degree requirement.
The programme is full-time and lab-based, so it is difficult to combine with full-time employment.
It is one of the intended routes. TIU offers a PhD in AI in both full-time and part-time modes.
