As listed on the portal, students can avail any of the courses listed below:
- Programming

Those who are interested in applying for the free educational courses offered by IIT Madras can take part by visiting the official portal i.e. nsm.iitm.ac.in/cse/
Let us tell you that each course has YouTube recordings of live lectures that the college faculty taught to students amidst the Covid-19 pandemic. Speaking about the new initiative, Professor C Chandra Sekhar, who is the Head of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, CSE at IIT Madras said, “The recordings of live lectures for CSE core courses at the undergraduate level and the graduate level, by the faculty of the Department are expected to be helpful to the students in Engineering Colleges to learn the underlying concepts and principles of the subjects of these courses in the right manner.”
Giving further insight about how the free course initiative will be beneficial for all, Dr Rupesh Nasre, who is the Associate Professor at the CSE Department of IIT Madras said, “The portal has been created to help students who could not study at IIT Madras, especially those from remote and rural areas of the country. They will have access to the same curriculum that is taught in the institute. This initiative will ensure that quality material is accessible to all students.”
Besides the YouTube sessions, the department is working to engage senior students for conducting live sessions for tutoring students who need help.
