IBM Innovation Centre for Education (IBM ICE) is a unique global initiative by IBM. The course offers much-needed applied Information Technology Knowledge to the graduating students. The knowledge is provided in various futuristic technology arenas. The IBM ICE’s cutting-edge programs are offered in collaboration with MBU. In the process, first, IBM acts as the Knowledge Partner for Emerging Technologies. On the other hand, secondly, MBU serves as the Academic Partner.
IBM ICE Programs on Emerging Technologies are incredibly intense and delivered through a highly interactive model in conjunction with IBM’s online delivery platform and Industry-Academia Collaboration. This novel approach ensures deep knowledge is provided to students through broad-based industry alignment and interactions. This leads to talent discoverability and excellence in students’ professional makeup. Thus, students become ‘industry-ready’ skilled graduates at an early stage.
Even as technology changes to keep up with the needs of a changing world, Computer Science programs are often out-of-date and, in some cases, obsolete. Students thus need significant training after employment before being deployed and contributing to the employer’s business. IBM ICE provides cutting-edge technological knowledge and Industry-specific training with a state-of-the-art delivery model. Also, the students are provided with the requisite knowledge and skills to thrive in a constantly changing technological landscape, bringing immediate value to the employer.
IBM is a global leader in technology. IBM ‘Graduate’ badges are evidence of the rigorous 4-year training that IBM ICE students have undergone, enabling them to master the theoretical aspects of an emerging technology domain while being demonstrably confident with hands-on application concepts. The badges are awarded upon successful completion of 7 subjects and a project.
