Prompt Engineering

Master the craft of working with large language models: clear instructions, few-shot patterns, structured outputs, guardrails, and evaluation loops. You will build reusable prompt libraries and small automations each week—with mentor feedback until your capstone demonstrates production-grade prompt design, not random trial and error.
