IIIT Hyderabad (IIITH) has collaborated with TalentSprint to launch e Certificate Programme in Generative AI and Prompt Engineering. The programme has been designed for professionals who are aiming to excel in the era of Generative AI (GenAI).

Ideal for experienced professionals, this three-month immersive programme is delivered in a blended format, combining live interactive classes by IIITH faculty with mentor-guided labs and a capstone project, the institute said in an official press release.

Participants will gain hands-on experience building applications using OpenAI and Hugging Face APIs, mastering LangChain and vector databases such as FAISS and Chroma, designing enterprise-level prompt engineering strategies, developing RAG pipelines, deploying intelligent systems, and creating ethical and explainable AI systems, it added.

Prof Sandeep K Shukla, Director of IIITH, highlights, “Generative AI represents one of the most transformative shifts in computing. Our curriculum goes beyond theory to offer participants deep insights into the GenAI stack; from prompt engineering to LangChain and vector databases. It empowers professionals to design, build, and deploy intelligent systems that drive real-world impact.”

This thoughtfully curated programme will help participants understand GenAI fundamentals as well as build solutions with purpose, transforming them into practitioners capable of leading enterprise-scale AI adoption.

The programme will combine academic depth with industry-aligned learning, providing participants with hands-on experience in building and deploying GenAI applications, the IIIT added.

“Generative AI is transforming the world today. From writing code and developing products to automating customer experiences, GenAI has become central to how industries innovate and scale. According to recent reports, over 78 per cent of global organisations are actively exploring or investing in GenAI capabilities. However, there exists a significant gap between the demand and supply of skilled professionals equipped to work with advanced AI systems, particularly in areas such as LLM tooling, responsible AI design, and real-time engineering,” the institute added.
