The lab will focus on agentic analytics, enabling students to go beyond simple visualization to build expertise in business intelligence and turn trusted insights into autonomous action.
Salesforce will co-design a curriculum to create the Tableau Lab, grounded in the vision of democratizing analytics through AI-first capabilities, while providing comprehensive faculty training. The curriculum will create an immersive learning environment featuring Tableau Agent, bringing conversational AI to the forefront of the student experience. Through lectures, tutorials, and practical exercises, students will master natural language data exploration and learn to utilize Q&A calibration to tune AI responses for accuracy.
Speaking on the collaboration, Romil Agarwal, VP, Sales, Salesforce India, said, “For a nation as vast and diverse as India, data is more than just information—it’s the very language of our progress. The ability to harness an agentic data landscape, where AI doesn’t just show us insights but proactively acts upon them, is one of the most critical skills for the future. India’s vast talent pool holds immense potential, and initiatives like the Tableau Lab are empowering students to master these agentic workflows, unlocking their potential to become the next generation of leaders. We are thrilled to collaborate with NIET to inspire and equip these young professionals to drive meaningful, autonomous impact across industries.”
