Jigsaw Academy, an online school for analytics, is collaborating with the University of Chicago Graham School to introduce an Integrated Programme in Data Science and Machine Learning (IDM). The duration of the course is close to nine months at a cost of $5,000 with online and offline training.

The course will equip students with the superior training required to solve real-life business problems through big data analysis, as well as technical skills on machine-learning platforms. The content and curriculum for the course has been designed by lecturers from UChicago and industry experts from Jigsaw Academy.

Open to young professionals working across domains or functions, the IDM programme features electives addressing the analytical needs across different industry sectors.

Founded by Gaurav Vohra and Sarita Digumarti, and funded by Manipal Global Education Services (MaGE), the six-year old Bengaluru-based Jigsaw Academy has trained over 40,000 students in over 30 countries.
