This program has been created specifically for students who are interested in machine learning, AI, and/or deep learning, and who have a working knowledge of Python programming, including NumPy and pandas. Outside of that Python expectation and some familiarity with calculus and linear algebra, it's a beginner-friendly program.
Introduction
Get your first taste of deep learning by applying style transfer to your own images, and gain experience using development tools such as Anaconda and Jupyter notebooks.
Neural Networks
Learn neural networks basics, and build your first network with Python and NumPy. Use the modern deep learning framework PyTorch to build multi-layer neural networks, and analyze real data.
Convolutional Neural Networks
Learn how to build convolutional networks and use them to classify images (faces, melanomas, etc.) based on patterns and objects that appear in them. Use these networks to learn data compression and image denoising.
Recurrent Neural Networks
Build your own recurrent networks and long short-term memory networks with PyTorch; perform sentiment analysis and use recurrent networks to generate new text from TV scripts.
Generative Adversarial Networks
Learn to understand and implement a Deep Convolutional GAN (generative adversarial network) to generate realistic images, with Ian Goodfellow, the inventor of GANs, and Jun-Yan Zhu, the creator of CycleGANs.
Deploying a Sentiment Analysis Model
Train and deploy your own PyTorch sentiment analysis model. Deployment gives you the ability to use a trained model to analyze new, user input. Build a model, deploy it, and create a gateway for accessing it from a website.

Program Details
PROGRAM OVERVIEW - WHY SHOULD I TAKE THIS PROGRAM?
Why should I enroll?
In this program, you’ll master deep learning fundamentals that will prepare you to launch or advance a career, and additionally pursue further advanced studies in the field of artificial intelligence. You will study cutting-edge topics such as neural, convolutional, recurrent neural, and generative adversarial networks, as well as sentiment analysis model deployment, and you will build projects in NumPy and PyTorch. You will learn from experts in the field, and gain exclusive insights from working professionals. For anyone interested in building expertise with this transformational technology, this Nanodegree program is an ideal point-of-entry.What jobs will this program prepare me for?
This program is designed to build on your skills in deep learning. As such, it doesn't prepare you for a specific job, but expands your skills in the deep learning domain. These skills can be applied to various applications and also qualify you to pursue further studies in the field.How do I know if this program is right for me?
If you are interested in the fields of artificial intelligence and machine learning, this Nanodegree program is the perfect way to get started!
ENROLLMENT AND ADMISSION
Do I need to apply? What are the admission criteria?
No. This Nanodegree program accepts all applicants regardless of experience and specific background.What are the prerequisites for enrollment?
Students who are interested in enrolling must have intermediate-level Python programming knowledge, and experience with NumPy and pandas. You will need to be able to communicate fluently and professionally in written and spoken English. Additionally, students must have the necessary math knowledge, including: algebra and some calculus—specifically partial derivatives, and matrix multiplication (linear algebra).If I do not meet the requirements to enroll, what should I do?
We have a number of Nanodegree programs and free courses that can help you prepare, including:
TUITION AND TERM OF PROGRAM
How is this Nanodegree program structured?
The Deep Learning Nanodegree program is comprised of content and curriculum to support five (5) projects. We estimate that students can complete the program in four (4) months working 10 hours per week.
Each project will be reviewed by the Udacity reviewer network. Feedback will be provided and if you do not pass the project, you will be asked to resubmit the project until it passes.How long is this Nanodegree program?
