IIT-R to launch 4-month course on AI in banking

Roorkee: In keeping with the shift towards digitisation that the Covid-19 outbreak has led to, IIT-Roorkee is soon going to launch an online programme on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in banking systems. "Artificial intelligence has the potential to transform banking and improve compliance. The Covid-19 crisis along with growing security and privacy concerns has reinforced the need to leverage new-age skills to tackle emerging challenges," AK Chaturvedi, director of the institute said. The institute is collaborating with WileyNXT, a digital education solutions organisation for the programme. The four-month joint certification programme will train IT professionals and graduates in implementing AI in the banking sector.
