It was a fantastic journey so far with the support of UpGrad team
I wanted to get into the ML\AI space for some time and decided to enroll in upGrad after being inspired by a friend. It was a fantastic journey so far with the support of upGrad team (special kudos to Karen for the excellent job) and I never imagined that I can make this far as I am a pretty occupied individual personally as well as professionally. I am looking forward to complete my masters and pursue PhD in near future. The foundation provided was fabulous and has enabled me to do design some innovative solutions at work. Thanks to UpGrad for making it happen.
