About course

Agentic AI Engineering is a 26-week course designed for learners aiming to become AI engineers from scratch. No prior experience is required — the course starts with Python programming, working with data, and basic machine learning. Then you progress to building AI agents using the Vibe Coding philosophy: you define tasks, and AI tools generate the code and solutions. The program covers full AI engineering: creating single and multi-agent systems, RAG pipelines, LLM fine-tuning, deployment, and AI safety. By the end of the course, students develop a production-ready AI system and defend it in front of industry experts.
