AI EngineerCareer Launch Programme

Six months. Build an AI product that is deployed, running and yours to explain.

A project-led programme for students and recent graduates who want to build modern AI applications using language models, retrieval, agents, MCP, deployment, evaluation and production engineering practices.

What you will have at the end of six months

The programme is built around work an employer can inspect, run and question you about.

A

A live AI product

A deployed application that can be opened and tested through a real URL.

B

A six-month GitHub history

A repository that shows how the system developed week by week.

C

A technical design document

A clear explanation of the architecture, decisions, alternatives considered and engineering trade-offs.

D

A technical walkthrough

A recorded ten-minute explanation of your system, architecture, important decisions and results.

No two students in a batch complete the same capstone project. Students choose a problem early in the programme and progressively build it as they learn new engineering concepts.

Roles this programme prepares you for

The skills in the programme map to entry-level roles including:

Job titles vary between companies. The programme focuses on the engineering capabilities behind these roles rather than training for one particular job title.

Is this programme right for you?

Good fit if:

  • You are in your pre-final year, final year or have graduated recently.
  • Students from different engineering and technical branches may apply.
  • You can already write basic Python using loops, functions and files.
  • You want to build actual AI applications rather than study only theory.
  • You can commit consistently throughout the six-month programme.
  • You are comfortable learning by building, debugging and improving your own work.

If a student does not yet have the required Python foundation: Ask us about the Python for AI bridge programme before joining.

This programme may not suit you if:

  • You are looking only for a certificate.
  • You want only classroom theory.
  • You want to complete only predefined dummy projects.
  • You expect every solution to be provided step by step without building independently.

You will receive guidance, code reviews, project support and remediation throughout the programme, but the work you present at the end must genuinely be yours.

How the six months are structured

Months 1–2 · Foundations

60 hours

Students establish the engineering foundation required to work with modern AI systems and begin their individual capstone.

  • Python for AI engineering
  • modern AI landscape
  • transformers, tokens, embeddings and attention
  • prompt engineering
  • LLM engineering
  • OpenAI SDK
  • Anthropic SDK
  • Gemini API
  • embeddings
  • vector search

Students select their capstone problem during this period.

Months 3–4 · AI Systems

72 hours

Students learn how modern AI applications retrieve information, use tools, maintain state and interact with external systems.

  • Retrieval Augmented Generation
  • LangChain
  • LlamaIndex
  • AI agents
  • LangGraph
  • CrewAI
  • multi-agent systems
  • Model Context Protocol
  • MCP Python SDK
  • MCP Inspector
  • FastAPI
  • deployment
  • Docker
  • GitHub Actions

Each major concept is applied to the student's own project.

Months 5–6 · Production Engineering

48 hours

Students take the working system closer to the standard expected of real software.

  • evaluation
  • regression testing
  • observability
  • tracing
  • logging
  • latency
  • token economics
  • security
  • prompt injection
  • jailbreak resistance
  • data leakage
  • responsible AI
  • Indian data protection obligations
  • production hardening
  • documentation
  • technical presentation
  • portfolio preparation
  • technical interview preparation

180 contact hours in total. Students should plan additional project and practice time outside contact hours. A realistic total commitment is approximately 11–13 hours per week, depending on the student's pace and project.

Learn through smaller builds. Prove it through one serious project.

The course uses two complementary forms of project work.

Engineering mini-builds

During individual modules students complete short practical builds such as:

These are designed to make each technical concept concrete before it enters the capstone.

Individual capstone

Each student also develops one substantial AI application over the full six months. The capstone progressively incorporates application logic, model APIs, retrieval, tools, agents where appropriate, databases, evaluation, monitoring, deployment, security and documentation.

The mini-builds teach the individual engineering skills. The capstone shows that you can combine them into a working system.

How progress is assessed

Month 1 — Foundations check

Python, APIs, data handling and core software skills.

Month 2 — Independent build

A small working AI application built with limited assistance.

Month 4 — Engineering assessment

Students build a small working system from an empty project and complete a debugging task involving unfamiliar code. Part of this assessment is completed without AI assistance so that students and instructors can identify whether the underlying engineering skills are strong enough. Students who need additional support enter a structured remediation period before moving forward.

Month 6 — Capstone review

The final application is evaluated on whether it works, architecture, code quality, evaluation, reliability, deployment, documentation and technical explanation.

Choose a problem you can understand deeply

Students select a domain and define a specific problem with guidance from the teaching team. Projects may come from a student's interests, internship exposure, family business, local industry problem or original idea. The examples below indicate the expected level of system design.

Healthcare

A medical knowledge assistant that works from approved reference material, retrieves and cites evidence, identifies unsupported questions, records feedback and measures retrieval quality. It is not designed to diagnose patients independently.

Education

A learning system that records student performance, identifies weak concepts, retrieves relevant learning material, adapts subsequent questions and provides teachers with evidence of student progress.

Human Resources

A recruitment support system that extracts candidate evidence, compares it against defined job requirements, identifies missing information and provides explainable recommendations for human review. Discriminatory automated hiring logic is not part of the programme.

Legal

A contract intelligence system that identifies obligations, dates, unusual clauses, defined terms and risks while linking every extracted point to its source text.

Finance

A financial research system that reads financial statements, filings and approved source documents, extracts relevant information, identifies changes and provides evidence-backed analysis with appropriate controls. It is not marketed as autonomous financial advice.

Retail

A catalogue-aware shopping system connected to structured product information that understands constraints, compares appropriate products, explains recommendations and handles changing inventory.

Manufacturing

An equipment-support system combining manuals, maintenance history and fault information to identify relevant evidence, guide troubleshooting, record technician feedback and evaluate retrieval accuracy.

Digital Marketing

A marketing workflow that prepares campaign assets, records variations, supports controlled testing, analyses campaign data and produces traceable reports for human approval.

Customer Support

A support system that retrieves approved answers, uses tools where authorised, identifies when it cannot safely resolve an issue, escalates correctly and records unresolved cases.

Enterprise Knowledge

A controlled knowledge system that retrieves information from distributed organisational documents, respects access rules, cites sources and measures answer quality.

Students are not restricted to these domains.

Tools and technologies

The programme distinguishes between technologies students build with regularly, technologies they use through hands-on exercises, and technologies they learn to compare and evaluate.
