Course Overview

The Programming, Data Structures, and Algorithms Using Python certification course imbibe Python problem-solving and programming fundamentals in its students. A Chennai Mathematical Institute offering, this eight-week curriculum features robust industry recognition amongst programming-oriented companies. Primarily built for undergraduates, this program falls under the following purviews - ‘Foundations of Computing’, ‘Programming’, ‘Artificial Intelligence, ‘Computer Science and Engineering, and ‘Data Science’

The extensive Programming, Data Structures, and Algorithms Using Python certification syllabus cover multiple concepts, including introductory concepts like loops, conditionals, functions, strings, etc. Candidates learn about sorting algorithms, backtracking, using files, exception handling, and more. Regarding data structures, the course also discusses Python dictionaries, objects, and classes to define various data types, including binary search trees and linked lists.

The Programming, Data Structures, and Algorithms Using Python training also offers an optional certificate to help candidates actively seek employment or educational growth. Aspirants can acquire this by clearing the requirements. These include scoring well in the weekly assignments and clearing Swayam’s two examinations.

Eligibility Criteria

Enrolling in Programming, Data Structures and Algorithms Using Python program will require candidates to know about school-level mathematics.

Certificate Qualifying Details

Furthermore, there are three criteria for students to fulfill acquiring the Programming, Data Structures and Algorithms Using Python certificate. These include obtaining adequate scores in their weekly assignments, a proctored test, and the unproctored examination.

The average assignment marks carry 25% weightage (from the best six out of eight), where 12.5% will be for the top-scored three quizzes and 12.5% for the highest-scored three programming assessments. The un-proctored evaluation carries a 25% weightage of the student’s average scores out of 100.

The un-proctored test carries 50% weightage of the examination score out of 100. The student’s final score will be the sum of these three, where they must maintain >=20/50 in their proctored exam, >=10/25 for their unproctored test, and >=10/25 in the average assignment marking. Learners can earn the Programming, Data Structures, and Algorithms Using Python certification only by meeting these requirements.

Evaluation process

Apart from doing well in the weekly quizzes and assignments, candidates must sit for Swayam’s Programming, Data Structures, and Algorithms Using Python certification tests. There are two of them, a proctor and an unproctored one, both offline and requiring in-person attendance.

While Swayam is yet to announce the timings and dates for the unproctored one, their proctored examination will commence on a pre-scheduled date. Aspirants can opt for either of the two sessions - morning or afternoon. All exam details will be available on the online registration form, which students must fill and pay the requisite fees to apply for the course-end evaluations.
