Introduction:
Welcome to the curriculum for the Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI&ML)
Specialisation. This specialisation course is taught in Bootcamp mode. Bootcamps are 13 weeks,
intense learning sessions designed to prepare you for the practical world – ready for either industry
or becoming an entrepreneur. You will be assisted through the course, with development-based
assessments to enable progressive learning.

In the era of connected computing devices, securing the personal data, application, system, network
and organization becomes the challenging task in the field of Computer science and Engineering.
The specialization prepare students to take up job or to become entrepreneur in the challenging
area of Cyber security

Pre-requisite

Before the start of this specialisation course, you would have completed the following courses;

In the 1st year of study, you would have studied Engineering Mathematics, Communication Skills,
Computer Aided Engineering Graphics, Statistics & Analysis, Basic IT Skills, Fundamentals of
Computer, Fundamentals of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Project Management skills and
Multimedia & Animation.

In the 2nd year of study, you would have studied Python Programming, Computer Hardware,
Maintenance and Administration, Computer Networks, Database System Concepts and PL/SQL,
Data Structures with Python, Operating System and Administration, Object oriented programming
and Design with Java, Software Engineering principles and practices.

In this year of study, you shall be applying your previous years learning along with specialised field
of study into projects and real-world applications.

Course Cohort Owner

A Course Cohort Owner is a faculty from the core discipline, who is fully responsible for one
specialised field of study and the cohort of students who have chosen to study that specialised field
of study.

Guidelines for Cohort Owner

1. Each Specialized field of study is restricted to a Cohort of 20 students which could include
students from other relevant programs.
2. One faculty from the Core Discipline shall be the Cohort Owner, who for teaching and
learning in allied disciplines can work with faculty from other disciplines or industry experts.
3. The course shall be delivered in boot camp mode spanning over 12 weeks of study, weekly
developmental assessments and culminating in a mini capstone.
4. The industry session shall be addressed by industry subject experts (in contact
mode/online / recorded video mode) in the discipline only.
5. The cohort owner shall be responsible to identify experts from the relevant field and
organize industry session as per schedule.
6. Cohort owner shall plan and accompany the cohort for any industrial visits.
7. Cohort owner shall maintain and document industrial assignments, weekly assessments,
practices and mini project.
8. The cohort owner shall coordinate with faculties across programs needed for their course to
ensure seamless delivery as per time table
9. The cohort owner along with classroom sessions can augment or use supplementally
teaching and learning opportunities including good quality online courses available on
platforms like Karnataka LMS, Infosys Springboard, NPTEL, Unacademy, SWAYAM , etc.
Course outcome: A student should be able to
Design, optimize, operate and maintain a secure network/system/application/cloud and data
CO1
resources for given requirements
CO2 Apply cryptography to secure a cyber system.

CO3 Respond to incidents to mitigate immediate and potential threats .

Test, implement, deploy, maintain and review the infrastructure to effectively manage the
CO4
network and resources.

CO5 Monitor network to actively remediate unauthorized activities.
