iHUB DivyaSampark,IIT Roorkee Certification in Product Management with Applied AI Program: One Classroom, Infinite Perspectives

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.
