Artificial intelligence is the area in computer sciences that focuses on developing machines that react like humans and make decisions.
Currently ,It is one of the most important trend in Computer science. To study Artificial Intelligence ,one.must do an undergraduate degree in engineering or in computer science and then go for further specialization in Artificial Intelligence.

On the other hand, machine learning is considered a subset of artificial intelligence. It is the study of algorithms and statistical models and use it to enable a computer system to perform a specific task without explicit instructions but rely on patterns.

For doing your specialisation in Artificial Intelligence and machine learning, you must finish your undergraduate in B.E/B.Tech and then go  for GATE exam through which you can go for counselling and try for top Institutions such as IITs or NITs to  specialise in that field. 

Some of the institutes in India which offer Master courses in Artificial Intelligence are:
University of Hyderabad

IIT Bombay

IIT Madras

IISc Bangalore

ISI Kolkata

IIT Hyderabad

IIT Kharagpur

Not only that ,a specialised course in Artificial Intelligence for the first time is being introduced at undergraduate level . A degree of Bachelor in Technology on Artificial Intelligence is being offered at the  Indian Institute of Technology, Hyderabad for.the academic session 2019- 2020. It has a capacity of 20 students and students can go for it through the JEE advanced.
The mission of the Department of Artificial Intelligence, IIT Hyderabad, is to produce students with a sound understanding of the fundamentals of theory and practice of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.  It is the first Institute in India to provide an undergraduate course in Artificial Intelligence.

School of engineering and technology ,Jain University also offers B.Tech Computer Science with specialisation in Artificial Intelligence. The eligibility is Pass in PUC / 10+2 examination with Physics and Mathematics as compulsory subjects along with Chemistry / Computer Science / Electronics as one of the subjects and obtained at least 60% marks (55% in case of SC/ST category) in the above subjects taken together.

Once you have such specialisation ,there are many career opportunities. As an A.I proffessional,you can expect careers such as those given below:

Data Engineer


 Research Scientist


 Natural Language Processing Scientist


 Machine Learning developer


 Automation and Optimization Engineer


 Game developer

I hope the above details are helpful to you.
