Certification
from E&ICT Academy, IIT Roorkee
- • Python Fundamentals: Start from the ground up—variables, data types, operators, input/output, and writing simple programs with clear structure.
- • Control Flow & Problem Solving: Conditionals, loops, nesting, and building the habit of thinking in steps (break a problem into small, testable parts).
- • Functions & Modularity: Functions, parameters, return values, scope, and writing reusable code that is readable and maintainable.
- • Core Data Structures: Lists, tuples, sets, dictionaries, strings, and common operations (searching, counting, transformations).
- • Practical Python for Engineering: Error handling, basic file I/O, working with JSON, and writing simple utilities that feel "real".
- • Developer Environment Setup: Python setup, virtual environments, dependency management basics, using terminals confidently, and debugging workflows.
- • Git & GitHub Essentials: Version control basics, branching, commits, pull requests, code reviews, and collaborating safely on shared code.
- • How the Web Works: Understand HTTP methods, status codes, headers, cookies, sessions, and CORS, with practical examples.
- • APIs as Contracts: Learn how API design works in real products: request/response shape, error contracts, pagination, filtering, and documentation.
- • Browser Basics for Backend Engineers: Learn enough HTML/CSS to create simple pages and understand how frontend teams consume backend APIs.
- • JavaScript for Integration: Learn modern JavaScript essentials (ES6+), asynchronous programming (promises, async/await), and calling APIs from the browser.
- • FastAPI Core: Build REST APIs with routing, request validation, response models, error handling, and auto-generated OpenAPI docs.
- • Database Foundations: SQL basics, schemas, relationships, and how to model data for real applications.
- • CRUD and Beyond: Implement real endpoints with filtering, sorting, pagination, and robust error handling.
- • Authentication & Authorization: Learn identity concepts, JWT/session patterns, password hashing, RBAC basics, and secure API access.
- • Security Fundamentals: Validate input, prevent common API mistakes, handle secrets safely, and build secure defaults.
- • The Rise of LLMs (Builder Level): Understand what tokens are, why context windows matter, what knowledge cutoff means, and why outputs can vary.
- • OpenAI API Essentials (Python): Learn how to call LLM APIs, understand response structure, handle errors, retries, and rate limits in a professional way.
- • Prompting for Real Products: Learn zero-shot and few-shot prompting, role prompting, structured output prompting, and how to design prompts that are stable.
- • Controllability and Tradeoffs: Learn when temperature and max tokens matter, how stop sequences work, and what penalties affect.
- • Security for LLM Apps: Learn prompt injection, untrusted inputs, safe retrieval patterns, and how to keep systems robust in adversarial settings.
- • Integrating AI into FastAPI: Expose AI endpoints from your backend and design safe contracts around them.
- • AI Pair Programming in Practice: Learn to use AI as a senior pair programmer for scaffolding, refactoring, debugging, and explaining code, while enforcing your code standards.
- • GitHub Copilot as a Daily Tool: Learn how Copilot supports autocomplete, code suggestions, docstrings, and tests, and when to reject suggestions to avoid silent bugs.
- • Context Engineering: Learn what to include in context (and what to avoid), how to keep the model grounded in your codebase, and how to reduce hallucinations with constraints.
- • Building Specs with AI: Use AI to draft PRDs, user stories, acceptance criteria, API contracts, and edge cases, then refine them with human judgment.
- • AI Coding Agents (Staying in Control): Learn a disciplined workflow where the agent proposes a plan, asks clarifying questions, makes small diffs, and gets reviewed through PRs.
- • Design and UI/UX with AI: Rapidly draft UI flows and wireframes, then translate them into implementable user journeys and API requirements.
- • Personal AI‑First Coding Framework: Each student builds their own repeatable workflow for using AI across design, implementation, and debugging.
- • Deploying FastAPI Applications: Package and deploy services with correct environment management, secrets handling, and stable production configs.
- • LLMOps Foundations: Learn prompt versioning, evaluation sets, regression testing for prompts, caching strategies, and latency/cost budgeting.
- • AI‑Assisted Code Review and Quality: Use AI tools to review PRs, identify risks, suggest refactors, and improve readability while maintaining human ownership.
- • Software Testing using AI (Practical): Use AI to generate test ideas and test cases, then validate them by running and debugging like an engineer.
- • Multimodal AI (Practical Builders): Build at least one feature that uses non-text input (like images) and integrates safely into a product workflow.
- • Build Sprint: Students build an end‑to‑end product with a FastAPI backend, a minimal frontend, and at least one meaningful AI feature.
- • Engineering Artifacts: Students produce a PRD/spec, API documentation, architecture notes, evaluation notes for AI behavior, and a short demo.
- • Quality Gate: The final submission must include a clean repository, working deployment, and clear documentation that another engineer can run.
