Curriculum

4 months · 16 weeks · 96 topics

Four months, one theme a month. Every week is five live classes with a daily assignment, one mini project built from that week’s topics, and a doubt session at the weekend. AI engineering evolves rapidly, with new developments emerging weekly, so the curriculum may be updated to reflect relevant advances and changing industry needs.

How a week runs

  1. 1Live class, Monday to FridayTwo hours in the evening with the instructor: concepts, a worked build, and your questions answered as they come up.
  2. 2Daily assignmentA short assignment after every class, so each topic is practised the day it is taught.
  3. 3One mini project every weekYou build one small project from the week's topics, every week of the batch.
  4. 4Doubt session at the weekendEvery weekend, a live session to clear the week's doubts before the next week starts.
  5. 5Recordings for 12 monthsEvery class is recorded and stays available to you, with the community, for 12 months.
  6. 6Capstone in month 4Weeks 15 and 16 are yours: define a problem, build it, deploy it and present it to the batch.

Tools you will use

  • Python 3
  • Git and GitHub
  • FastAPI
  • SQL, SQLite and PostgreSQL
  • LLM APIs
  • OpenAI Agents SDK
  • Model Context Protocol
  • LangGraph
  • Vector databases
  • Docker and Compose
  • Streamlit
  • CI/CD and cloud deployment

What you will be able to do

  • Write and test Python the way a working engineer does, with Git, packages and a debugger
  • Build and ship a backend with FastAPI, SQL and real external APIs
  • Call LLM APIs well: prompts, structured outputs, streaming, cost and latency
  • Build retrieval systems with embeddings, vector databases, reranking and evaluation
  • Build agents from scratch, then with the OpenAI Agents SDK, MCP and LangGraph
  • Design multi-agent systems with memory, human oversight, guardrails and tracing
  • Deploy an agentic product with Docker, PostgreSQL, CI/CD and monitoring
  • Present a production-minded capstone you can put in front of an interviewer

Who it is for

This batch is for

  • Working engineers moving into AI engineering
  • Graduates and career switchers who can give two hours every weekday
  • Developers already calling LLM APIs who want agents, RAG and production depth

Before you join

  • A laptop you can install software on
  • Two hours free on weekday evenings, and a few more at the weekend
  • No programming experience needed: month 1 starts from the terminal

Not for someone who wants to watch at their own pace. The batch moves together; if evenings are not possible, the self-paced courses are the better fit.

Questions people ask

What if I miss a class?

Every class is recorded and you keep access to the recordings and the community for 12 months. Bring anything you are stuck on to the weekend doubt session, so you can catch up before Monday.

Do I need to know programming?

No. Month 1 starts from the terminal and basic Python. If you already code, the first weeks go quickly and the pace picks up from week 3.

How are classes delivered?

Live over video, two hours each weekday evening in India time. The joining link and the class calendar reach your email before the first class.

Is there a certificate?

Yes, a certificate of completion at the end of the batch for everyone who completes the capstone.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, within the refund window from purchase, requested from your account page, the same as every course here. After classes start, write to support and we will look at it case by case.

Is this part of a membership plan?

No. A live course is bought on its own, one payment for the whole batch. Plans cover the self-paced courses, projects and interview kits.

How can I pay?

In one payment through Razorpay, by UPI, card, net banking or any other method Razorpay offers you. The invoice reaches your email as soon as the payment clears.
