If you STILL feel like skimming through it or feel bored by looking at its length – then take it granted that you are NOT eligible to join this course.
So, please don’t read further.]

PLEASE read ONLY when you have enough time to read and PLEASE use a bigger screen than a mobile phone.

============================================================================================================================

Hello All,

We, the AstroMediComp team, are proudly announcing the next batch of Real Time Rendering, which henceforth, will be called as RTR 2024 or RTR 6.0.

Looking at the success and statistics of prior 5 batches (you will find their statistics below), we are going to continue the same idea of online live-coding for this batch too.

About The Course or “Course Contents” :

This course covers “Graphics & Animation Programming” using OpenGL on 6 platforms and DirectX11 on one platform. These platforms are – Windows, Linux, Android, macOS, iOS and Web for OpenGL and Windows for DirectX11.

Simply speaking, after completion of this course, students will confidently code in :

  • Windows Programming
  • Linux Programming
  • Android Programming
  • macOS Programming
  • iOS Programming
  • Web Programming

(Remember, from above list on “Android” and “iOS” we are going to program in Embedded Systems Applications using OpenGL-ES and same can be done on supporting Embedded Boards like NVIDIA Jetson Nano, NVIDIA Tegra, RaspberryPi and other boards which have GPU on them)

When the sessions are online, there will be live-coding without any source code printouts/source code downloads/notes. And you will code and understand every line of a program of about 1000 lines of code (these are just average number of lines of ONE program) and you will do more code in assignments.

This will be possible ONLY because of consistency, which can only be achieved by doing more than 500 assignments on each of the above mentioned platforms.

But wait :

  1. For those who don’t have any computer background, who don’t even know what programming is, who never wrote a single line of code due to testing background – be assured that after completing this course and all above assignments, you will start loving and earning in programming! Just maintain the patience, passion and consistency.
  2. For those who are feeling panicked by the above number of assignments – be assured that after understanding every line of code, you will enjoy coding and will happily complete all assignments.
  3. For those who are experienced and so are overlooking / ignoring the above number due to “OC” (Overconfidence) – be assured that you may be the one who is left without a chair when the music stops. This has happened in all of the previous 5 batches.

So, don’t take this number lightly, we mean it. In short, consider above mentioned bullet-points as our “Course Content”.

Course Duration : 1.5 years (or 18 months). 

Course Fees :

For students residing in India : ₹90,000 + 18% GST = ₹1,06,200 (There are installments and they will be conveyed during the First Introductory Lecture.)

For students residing out of India : ₹1,80,000 + 18% GST = ₹2,12,400 (No installments/part payment allowed.)

[REMEMBER : Fees are decided ONLY by students, NOT by us and so are non-refundable in any case].
If you feel that the fees are on higher side OR if there is a discrimination between students residing in India and out of India, please don’t ask us – ask the students who decided this. Social Media is at your fingertips.

==================================================

Looking at above data and every batch-wise surprisingly increasing number of students, you will realize that in spite of higher-sided fees, without any job assistance or guarantee, without any infrastructure, not even notes, all above batches have emerged as highly successful.

That is why, instead of considering this as a course of “Graphics & Animation Programming”, we have given this course a new purpose of “Learning Programming using Graphics & Animation”.

Looking at the mass trend in the I.T. industry of India, we were never expecting any job opportunities in this complex, yet mass appealing, advertising, mesmerizing, eye-catching world of animation and game industry.

BUT WE WERE WRONG ABOUT THE INDUSTRY!
Now, we are proud to say that this course has caught the eye of our I.T. industry. Till now, multiple companies have approached us and many of them have already recruited our students for “Graphics & Animation Programming”, with excellent packages. And this number does not include those companies who have recruited our students just because of their better programming skills developed in them by this course (to avoid indirect advertisement of I.T. companies we are not disclosing these names – ask already passed-out students or see / refer social media like LinkedIn directly).

Please note that we do NOT arrange any campus.
All these companies have approached us on their own.

Rectify above details by asking anybody and everybody who has attended this course. Actually, don’t even think about joining the course without being 100% completely assured.

—————————————————————————————————————-

B] Payment of Fees: 

Update (1st December 2023): For the students residing in India, the payment will be accepted ONLY via Internet Banking.

The following message is for you (ONLY for students residing in India) from Dr. Vijay D. Gokhale Sir :
=====================================================================================
Hello Students,This is Dr. Gokhale Sir.
Read the following message very carefully because it is regarding your admissions and payments of the upcoming UNIX System Design 2023-2024 batch.Today we came to know that due to the recent decision of the Government, UPI / QR Code transactions are limited to ₹1 lakh per day per bank.
Meaning :- Only 9 admissions per day per bank can be done by UPI / QR code.
So, on the first day of admissions we received 18 admissions (with fees) by switching between 2 banks.
This is not only cumbersome to our administration but many students are also getting transaction failure messages about “Receiver’s Limit Reached”.
So, changing the method of payment from UPI / QR code to Internet banking.Note : I know that the way of UPI / QR code transactions is very easy for you, but to allow more students to get admissions without any failures per day we are switching to Internet Banking.
=====================================================================================

Out of India students will receive a different link for the payment.

We are providing you all the dates well in advance, so that you can prepare and take the admission as soon as you receive the payment details.
Still, if you fail to take the admission in the mentioned deadline, then AstroMediComp Administration will not be responsible.
