iHUB DivyaSampark,IIT Roorkee Certification in Product
Management with Applied AI Program is welcoming its fourth batch, a
milestone that offers a moment to reflect on what this program has quietly been
building. Not just a course, but a community of professionals redefining what
product leadership looks like in the age of artificial intelligence.
The program has enrolled over 1250+ students across its
first three batches. But the more telling story lies in who those students are.
Walk into a cohort session and the range of profiles is
immediately striking. A GenZ founder still navigating the uncertainty of an
early-stage startup sits alongside a Lieutenant Colonel who has spent years
leading teams through high-stakes decisions.
This diversity is not incidental. It is, increasingly, the
point.
Alumni Dimple Verma, a retired Army professional,
said: "As I transition from the Army to the corporate world, this AI
Product Management program at Masai School and iHUB DivyaSampark, IIT Roorkee
gave me a meaningful bridge to understand the language, mindset, and culture of
the corporate ecosystem. What made the journey special were the interactions
with peers from different backgrounds and age groups, proving that age is truly
just a number when it comes to learning. The experience reaffirmed a simple
belief I hold dearly. Learning never stops, and curiosity remains one of our
greatest strengths throughout life."
Alumni Suraj Sharma, co-founder of Workflow, said:
"I was focused on building and shipping. This program pushed me to think
differently. The case discussions helped me look at problems through the lens
of users, markets, and business decisions. Just as valuable were the
conversations with fellow learners, many of whom brought different perspectives
and ambitions to the table. It changed how I think about what I'm building and
the impact I want it to create."
Manish Anand, CEO, iHUB DivyaSampark,IIT
Roorkee said, "What has been particularly encouraging across the
previous cohorts is the diversity of professionals who have come together to
learn, collaborate, and innovate. The future of product leadership, especially
in the era of AI, requires the convergence of technical expertise, business
acumen, and real-world problem-solving. Through this program, iHUB
DivyaSampark, IIT Roorkee is fostering a vibrant learning ecosystem where
entrepreneurs, industry professionals, defence personnel, managers, and
technology leaders learn from one another while building capabilities that are
relevant to the evolving digital economy. The success of our alumni and the
growing interest in the program reaffirm the importance of interdisciplinary
and industry-aligned learning."
Prateek Shukla, Founder & CEO at Masai School said,
“This program stands at the intersection of two forces reshaping the future of
work, artificial intelligence and product thinking. What I find most fulfilling
is not just the curriculum, but the community it has created. Product
management today demands cross-pollination of ideas. As we welcome our fourth
batch, we remain committed to building a learning environment that reflects the
real-world complexity our alumni will navigate in their careers.”
Product management in AI rewards synthesizing across
disciplines, not narrow expertise. A diverse cohort mirrors real-world
complexity where founders, corporate professionals, and leaders bring different
perspectives that elevate conversations. The program deliberately structures
community alongside curriculum. The fourth batch is now accepting
applications. Batch starts 23rd September 2026.
