AI Engineering: Build Intelligent Systems with LLMs, RAG, and Agents

A

About this course

AI engineering today is about building systems that can reason, retrieve, and deliver real value in production. In this course, you will learn how modern AI applications are designed and built. We start with the foundations such as data, machine learning, and APIs and then move into working with large language models, embeddings, and real-world use cases. As the course progresses, you will build systems using retrieval-augmented generation, vector databases, and AI agents. You will also learn how to deploy, monitor, and improve these systems so they perform reliably in real environments. The focus is not just on understanding AI but on applying it in ways that reflect how top engineering teams at companies like Google, Microsoft, Netflix, and Amazon build and ship AI-powered products.
