What You Can Learn.

Build and deploy six multimodal AI applications spanning vision, voice, and document intelligence.
Apply frontier APIs and open‑weight models while making informed tradeoffs between quality, cost, and latency.
Implement evaluation frameworks including LLM‑as‑judge protocols and groundedness testing.
Design multimodal system architectures using a structured decision framework for real‑world AI engineering.
Receive individualized technical feedback and improve systems through weekly peer review of deployed demos.
Develop a professional portfolio featuring six publicly deployed AI applications on Hugging Face Spaces.

About This Course

Build and deploy six AI applications in six weeks: a semantic image search engine, a benchmarked visual question‑answering app, a real‑time voice agent, a document Q&A system with cited answers over real PDFs, a cross‑modal generative studio, and a capstone you design. This applied AI engineering course for working professionals centers on Vision, Voice, and Document Intelligence with Python, using the current generation of vision, speech, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), and generative AI models. Each week concludes with a fully working system deployed to a public portfolio on Hugging Face Spaces.

The curriculum teaches the decisions practitioners face on the job: frontier APIs versus open‑weight models, quality versus cost and latency, and evaluation the way industry runs it, including LLM‑as‑judge protocols and groundedness testing. Every assignment receives individualized written feedback from the instructor, and weekly demo threads put your deployed work in front of a cohort of peers for structured review. You leave with six live demos, a decision framework for multimodal system design, and the vocabulary to lead these projects at work.

Prerequisites
For those with little to no experience, we recommend taking COM SCI 910.1 Foundations of Generative AI before enrolling in this course.
