AI Agent Development Program for Students & Professionals

1️⃣ Foundations: Generative AI & LLM Basics

Goal: Build your base in LLMs, tokens, context & structured outputs.

Topics: LLMs, tokens/params, context windows, prompting (zero/one/few-shot, CoT), temperature/top‑p, OpenAI vs Gemini vs Ollama.

Hands‑on: Prompt assistant • Prompt‑engineering notebook • Try OpenAI + Gemini APIs.

Mini Project: “Ask‑Me‑Anything Bot” (Streamlit + OpenAI)

2️⃣ Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG)

Goal: Enable your model to read + reason with your data.

Topics: Chunking, embeddings, ChromaDB, citations, evaluation.

Hands‑on: Build a PDF Q&A Agent • Create embedding store • Implement retrieval flow.

Mini Project: “AI Research Assistant”

3️⃣ Agentic AI with LangChain

Goal: Enable autonomous tool‑use + planning.

Topics: Agents & tools, tool calling, planner‑executor, function calling, LangSmith debugging.

Hands‑on: Planner‑Executor Agent • Multi‑tool integration (calculator, notes, search).

Mini Project: “Task‑Automator Agent”

4️⃣ LangGraph & Multi‑Agent Systems

Goal: Design collaborative graph‑based agent workflows.

Topics: Nodes & edges, state transitions, event triggers, planner/researcher/writer collaboration.

Hands‑on: 2‑agent collaboration • State memory visualization.

Mini Project: “Collaborative Research Agent”

5️⃣ Memory, Evaluation & Safety

Goal: Add long‑term memory, analytics, guardrails.

Topics: Short/long‑term memory, prompt injection defense, monitoring & scoring.

Hands‑on: JSON + Vector Memory • Self‑evaluation loop • Safety filters.

Mini Project: “Memory‑Aware Study Assistant”

6️⃣ UI Development & Deployment

Goal: Ship your production‑ready AI Agent.

Topics: Streamlit or React UI, FastAPI backend, Local vs Cloud (Render/Spaces/Streamlit Cloud).

Hands‑on: Full app build • Role‑based tabs (Student/Faculty/Admin) • PDF exports & reports.

Mini Project: “End‑to‑End AI Agent App”

🎓 Capstone Project & Graduation

Consolidate everything learned → Demo → GitHub Submission → Certification Ceremony.

Outcome: Portfolio‑ready AI Agent for career and startup growth.
