Who this course is for:

• Students and professional who is willing to make a career in Linux internals and operating system.

• Linux enthusiastic who would like to see what is going on in kernel level either due to hobby or curiosity and wanted to build a career out of it

• Students who wanted to understand the kernel of other operating system but couldn't do so because of closed source, can learn linux and apply the almost similar concept in other OS
