"The course has helped me get back into study mode, understand fundamentals and fall in love with math again. The professors guide us clearly and help clearing our doubts in a very patient way. In my opinion, I feel the course is lacking a bit in practical and real world implementation of the concepts but the project manager was kind to address all our issues and also schedule extra hours dedicated to practical sessions. I feel very encouraged and see clear path on how I should develop my skills and surely try to put in as much efforts as the faculties have put in designing this course."
