Learning AI from the best profs just got easier

For Sakthisree Venkatesan, the covid pandemic arrived just when she had taken up a machine learning job with a wholesale retail chain after graduating in computer science from an engineering college in Coimbatore. It meant she had to work from home, and saved time on commutes to the office, which she put to good use by signing up for an artificial intelligence course on Univ.ai. It’s a newly launched platform where professors from the world’s top educational institutions teach AI from the foundational to advanced levels.

For Venkatesan, this was a different experience from the MOOCs (massive open online courses) she had signed up for earlier, including Stanford professor Andrew Ng’s famous machine learning course on Coursera.
