You won\u2019t just study theory: you\u2019ll master practical skills in applying AI tools within real\u2011world digital systems.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">You\u2019ll learn to finely control the behaviour of intelligent models by mastering prompt engineering and context engineering techniques \u2014 from basic principles of query formulation to advanced strategies for managing model outputs and working with prompt chains. Special attention will be given to retrieval\u2011augmented generation (RAG) approaches and memory management techniques: you\u2019ll understand the role of system instructions and learn how to properly structure context to get the most accurate and useful results.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">The programme will cover the evolution of approaches in AI and introduce you to current trends and architectural solutions \u2014 particularly the inner workings of LLMs: transformer\u2011based architectures, pre\u2011training and fine\u2011tuning processes, and inference optimisation methods. You\u2019ll see how to apply LLMs in practice \u2014 for instance, to generate code, analyse system architectures, automate technical documentation, and support software testing.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">We\u2019ll also address important limitations and risks: we\u2019ll examine model hallucinations, factual inaccuracies, and bias issues, and study key safety protocols and data protection principles. By the end, you\u2019ll be able to competently assess the capabilities and weaknesses of AI technologies and make well\u2011founded decisions about how to apply them in engineering tasks.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">The learning experience is designed to reinforce theory with hands\u2011on practice. In lectures, we\u2019ll take an in\u2011depth look at architectural solutions; then, in workshops, you\u2019ll practise crafting effective prompts and designing interaction scenarios with models. In lab sessions, you\u2019ll work with up\u2011to\u2011date LLM platforms, and through mini\u2011projects you\u2019ll try integrating AI assistants into real engineering challenges. Analysing practical case studies will help you see how AI technologies are implemented in real life and solve pressing engineering problems.<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">By the end of the course, you\u2019ll be fully prepared to confidently embed AI assistants into the development and operation of digital systems \u2014 and harness the full potential of modern AI technologies in your professional work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-28769-4\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"siteorigin-panels-stretch panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-28769-4\" data-stretch-type=\"full\" ><div id=\"pgc-28769-4-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-28769-4-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-headline panel-first-child\" data-index=\"8\" ><div class=\"so-widget-sow-headline so-widget-sow-headline-default-4e1b8d3af015-28769\"><div class=\"sow-headline-container \">\n\t<h3 class='sow-headline'>OBJECTIVES<\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-28769-4-0-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"9\" ><div class=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\">\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Development of a systemic understanding of the operating principles of modern artificial intelligence models, including large linguistic models (LLM);<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Development of skills in engineering application of AI tools in digital systems;<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Mastering the methods of prompt engineering and context engineering as tools for managing the behavior of intelligent models;<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Preparation for the integration of AI assistants into the development and operation of digital systems.<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-28769-4-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell panel-grid-cell-empty\" ><\/div><div id=\"pgc-28769-4-2\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-28769-4-2-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-headline panel-first-child\" data-index=\"10\" ><div class=\"so-widget-sow-headline so-widget-sow-headline-default-4e1b8d3af015-28769\"><div class=\"sow-headline-container \">\n\t<h3 class='sow-headline'>KEY TASKS<\/h3><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-28769-4-2-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-last-child\" data-index=\"11\" ><div class=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\">\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Develop a comprehensive understanding of the operating principles of modern artificial intelligence models, including Large Language Models (LLMs);<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Acquire practical engineering skills in applying AI tools within digital systems;<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Gain proficiency in prompt engineering and context design for guiding AI model responses;<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Open Sans';\">Prepare to integrate AI assistants into the development and operation of digital systems.<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-28769-5\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-28769-5\" ><div id=\"pgc-28769-5-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-28769-5-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"12\" ><div class=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\">\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3 style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Main topics of the course:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify; font-family: 'Open Sans';\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Block 1.
