Agentic AI Nanodegree Program

Course Overview

Move past basic chatbots and learn how to engineer intelligent, coordinated teams of AI agents. This comprehensive program teaches you the mechanics of advanced AI workflows, allowing you to design systems that can independently reason, plan, and execute complex tasks. You will gain hands-on experience using Python to orchestrate agents that seamlessly interact with external APIs, databases, and shared memory states.

Throughout the curriculum, you will build a highly practical portfolio by completing real-world projects reviewed by industry experts. From developing an automated sales team to creating a multi-agent travel planner, you will graduate with the proven ability to design scalable, autonomous AI solutions that modern tech companies are actively seeking.

What You Will Learn

• Advanced prompt engineering techniques, including Chain-of-Thought and ReAct.
• How to build and orchestrate multi-agent systems using Python and the OpenAI API.
• Strategies for implementing agent routing, parallelization, and prompt chaining.
• Techniques for integrating AI agents with external tools, web searches, and databases.
• State management and memory retention using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
• Creating self-improving AI workflows through automated feedback loops.
