About the Diploma in AI & Robotics Engineering Program
- The 1-Year Diploma in AI & Robotics Engineering at Forsche Technology Solutions is Tamil Nadu’s first and most comprehensive entry-level program dedicated to Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. Designed for students completing Class 12 or early-stage engineering graduates, this diploma bridges the gap between academic theory and the hands-on technology skills demanded by the global robotics and AI industry.
- Students learn to design, program, and control intelligent robots using the same frameworks used by leading technology companies — including Python, TensorFlow, OpenCV, and the Robot Operating System (ROS). Training takes place in our NVIDIA Isaac Sim Lab, giving students real-world robot simulation experience that very few institutes in Tamil Nadu can offer.
- This diploma is ideal for aspiring AI & Robotics engineers, students seeking a practical skill edge after Class 12, and individuals who want to explore careers in autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, drone technology, humanoid robotics, and AI-powered systems.
