Women make up nearly half of India’s higher education enrolment yet represent only about a third of the tech workforce. At the same time, AI & ML roles rank among the fastest-growing jobs worldwide, and most employers expect AI to transform their businesses by 2030. In India, the AI talent pool is projected to roughly double to about 1.25 million by 2027—signaling strong demand for job-ready skills and inclusive pathways.
Edunet, in collaboration with Microsoft, SAP and LinkedIn, with support from the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship, presents AI Careers for Women (AICW)—a national initiative turning ambition into AI-enabled careers through industry-aligned learning, mentorship, and real projects.
Women make up nearly half of India’s graduates but hold less than 30% of tech roles. Our program is changing that. Through hands-on training, mentorship, certifications, and real-world projects, we equip STEM and Non-STEM women students across select states to build careers in AI. From entry to leadership, we create inclusive pathways for growth in the tech industry.
AI Fellowship for Women—supported by LinkedIn and Microsoft—is a nationwide program exclusively for Non-STEM women students and faculty. It bridges academia and industry through hands-on AI training, mentorship, and real projects that turn learning into career momentum.
