The International Institute of Information Technology, Hyderabad (IIITH) and the National Institute of Food Technology Entrepreneurship and Management, Kundli (NIFTEM-K) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to foster collaboration between academia and industry through joint initiatives in research, training, and innovation. The agreement aims to bring together expertise from both institutions in food technology, computing, sensing, artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision, blockchain, drones, and robotics. The collaboration will focus on developing technologies for agricultural produce grading using computer vision-based sensing, food and product traceability and provenance through blockchain, bio-sensors for detecting adulteration and counterfeits, and AI/ML for large-scale sensor data processing. The MoU was signed during a visit by Prof. Harinder Singh Oberoi, Director, NIFTEM-K, and Prof. Vinkel Kumar Arora to IIIT Hyderabad.
IIITH, India’s premier research-led institute in information technology has collaborated with TalentSprint, Part of Accenture, a leading global education company powered by AI, to offer advanced programs for professionals seeking to lead in the era of Generative AI (GenAI). Building on the success of legacy AIML programme, which has trained and transformed thousands of professionals in advanced AI and machine learning, the launch of this Certificate Programme in Generative AI and Prompt Engineering marks a decisive step forward in creating a future-ready AI workforce. Generative AI is transforming the world today. From writing code and developing products to automating customer experiences, GenAI has become central to how industries innovate and scale. According to recent reports, over 78% of global organizations are actively exploring or investing in GenAI capabilities.

IIIT Hyderabad offers undergraduate programmes exclusively in Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) and Computer Science and Engineering (CSE). The institute runs two flagship undergraduate tracks: a four-year BTech program with an annual intake of about 250-300 students, and a five-year dual degree programme (BTech + MS by Research) that admits around 100 students each year. The dual degree, modelled on the US system, requires a research thesis and is designed to nurture bright undergraduates into research pathways from the very beginning. At the postgraduate level, IIIT Hyderabad offers MTech programmes that are strongly industry-focused and particularly popular among students from private colleges who seek advanced skills and better career opportunities. About one-third of MTech entrants have work experience, often using the programme as a springboard for career progression. Admissions to MTech are through IIIT’s own PG entrance exam, with fees of Rs 4.5 lakhs per year and an annual intake of around 100 students.
