Galgotias University Launches AI & ML Programme with Microsoft and byteXL
Galgotias University launches an industry-integrated B.Tech CSE AI & ML programme with Microsoft and byteXL, offering specialised AI learning, Microsoft Azure certifications, research exposure and placement support.
The four-year programme combines computer-science fundamentals with specialised, project-based learning designed for the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence. Students will work on real-world problems through live projects and case studies, gaining practical capabilities alongside classroom learning.
The curriculum is continually aligned with industry needs and is designed to prepare graduates for high-demand roles including Machine Learning Engineer, AI Application Developer, Data Scientist, MLOps Engineer and Cloud AI Specialist.
The programme is structured around six core pillars covering next-generation AI technologies, Microsoft certifications, career-launch support, high-demand AI roles, emerging AI domains and industry research. These components are designed to strengthen students' capabilities in a competitive, technology-driven job market.
Industry-collaborative research forms a central part of the learning experience, with areas including Deep Learning, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Reinforcement Learning, Computer Vision, Speech Recognition and Robotics. Working alongside faculty and industry mentors, students will gain exposure to cutting-edge tools, research practices and emerging AI domains.
A key feature of the programme is the opportunity to earn Microsoft Azure certifications recognised by employers worldwide. These include Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900), Azure AI Fundamentals (AI-901), Azure Data Fundamentals (DP-900), Azure AI App and Agent Developer (AI-103), Azure MLOps Engineer (AI-300), Azure AI Cloud Developer (AI-200) and Azure SQL AI Developer Associate (DP-800). The credentials are intended to help students validate their skills and strengthen their profiles with recruiters from day one.
Placement and career support are also integral to the programme. Through byteXL's dedicated placement assistance, students will receive structured, end-to-end career-launch support covering industry mentorship, internships, soft-skills and communication training, aptitude and technical interview preparation, mock interviews and access to byteXL's network of hiring partners. The support is designed to help students translate their skills and certifications into career outcomes and placements with leading technology companies.
Commenting on the launch, Dr. Dhruv Galgotia, Chief Executive Officer, Galgotias University, said, “AI education cannot be limited to teaching tools that may be outdated by the time students graduate. Our focus is on helping students develop the judgement to frame problems, work responsibly with data and models, and take AI systems from experiment to deployment. By combining Microsoft's technology ecosystem with byteXL's applied learning and career support, the programme creates a structured path from computer-science foundations to industry-ready AI practice.”
Galgotias University is ranked 16th among India's top private universities, third among private universities in Uttar Pradesh and 46th among India's top private and government universities. It has also been globally ranked for three consecutive years. The NAAC A+ accredited university is now accepting applications for the programme.
Admissions are now open for the B.Tech CSE Specialisation in AI & ML, in collaboration with Microsoft and powered by byteXL. Prospective students can review eligibility and submit their application through the Galgotias University admissions portal.
