Overview
About the programme
The Executive Programme in Full Stack Web Development programme from IITM Pravartak Technologies Foundation, IIT Madras is built for working professionals who need to move from doing the work to owning the outcome. Over 12 months, it takes you from foundations through to the judgement calls that only show up at senior level.
The curriculum is delivered by IITM Pravartak faculty alongside industry practitioners, and every module ends in applied work — a case, a lab or a decision you have to defend. Technology Innovation Hub of IIT Madras.
Sessions run on weekends, so the programme fits around a full-time role. You finish with a portfolio of applied work, a certificate from IITM Pravartak Technologies Foundation, IIT Madras, and a cohort you will keep calling long after the programme ends.
