New Delhi [India], October 6: The Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi), CEP has announced admissions for the ninth batch of its Certification in Quantum Computing & Machine Learning. The programme will enable learners to understand the principles governing quantum systems and apply machine-learning techniques to complex computational and industry challenges. It will also prepare participants to explore solutions that combine quantum capabilities with intelligent algorithms.
The programme is being offered by the organising department, Bharti School of Telecommunication Technology and Management, under the aegis of CEP, IIT Delhi. Through a combination of academic rigour and applied learning, participants will study quantum algorithms, foundational machine-learning methods and the rapidly evolving intersection of the two disciplines. The fully online programme comprises seven structured modules covering Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Algorithms, Classical Machine Learning, Quantum Fourier Transform and Quantum Machine Learning, Product Analytics, and other relevant areas.
Industry estimates valued the global quantum computing market at approximately USD 3.2 billion in 2025 and project it to reach USD 20.20 billion by 2030, representing a compound annual growth rate of 41.8 per cent. Advances in quantum hardware, wider access through cloud-based platforms and sustained public and private investment continue to accelerate this expansion. India has also strengthened its quantum technology ambitions through the National Quantum Mission, supported by an allocation of Rs. 6,003.65 crore between 2023–24 and 2030–31. The mission seeks to advance indigenous research, reinforce national security, encourage industry innovation and establish India as a significant contributor to the global quantum ecosystem.
Commenting on the launch of the nineth batch, Professor Abhishek Dixit, Associate Professor, IIT Delhi, said, “Quantum computing is moving steadily from scientific exploration towards practical application, creating demand for professionals who can connect advanced theory with real-world problem-solving. This programme gives learners the conceptual depth, computational exposure and project experience needed to understand quantum systems, apply machine-learning methods and contribute meaningfully to emerging technology-led industries.”
Participants will gain practical exposure to tools such as Qiskit and work on projects designed to translate theoretical concepts into computational solutions. On completing the programme, learners may explore emerging roles such as Quantum Software Developer, Quantum Machine Learning Engineer, Quantum Data Scientist and Quantum Consultant, among others.
The programme will be delivered through an Interactive Learning platform in Direct-to-Device mode. Learners will attend live sessions led by IIT Delhi faculty members and industry experts and complete more than 130 hours of synchronous and asynchronous learning. The programme will also include a one-day immersion at the IIT Delhi campus, providing participants with an opportunity to interact with faculty members, exchange perspectives with peers and deepen their understanding of applied concepts. Candidates holding a BTech or BE, BCA or MCA, BSc in any discipline, or BA or MA in Mathematics may apply.
