Applied AI Engineering · 12 Weeks
Strengthen how you build and deploy applications, test yourself in a hackathon, then build an AI/ML solution with a team. By the end of the program, your AI product is live and ready for early users.
What you learn in Essential is used right away at the hackathon, then becomes the base for building an AI/ML solution over eight weeks.
Understand code, errors, and deployment.
Use it while working with a team under time pressure.
Apply it to an AI solution ready for user testing.

Build a full-stack web app to live. You learn to understand code, read errors, connect frontend and backend, then check security before deploying.
Join a new team, set the scope, then build and deploy an AI prototype in 24 hours.
Learn AI/ML, system design, evaluation, MLOps, and deployment while building two AI solutions: one from the Product Owner's brief, one from your team's own idea.
An app with a backend and database you build and deploy yourself.
An AI prototype finished with a team in 24 hours.
One answers the Product Owner's brief. The other comes from your team's idea, ready for a market test.
A professional recording of you presenting your team's product.
From understanding the problem, building and testing the solution, to making decisions and presenting the results with your team.





Understand the problem that needs solving.
Build the solution with your team.
Deploy, test, then improve.
Make decisions and explain the reasoning.
Learn alongside people who are just as serious.

Documentation from Universa Academy programs and hackathons.
You learn the core material through the LMS. Class time is for asking, trying, and fixing what you are building.
Watch the videos, read the material, then do the exercises before Saturday class.
Start with a short exam, continue through four class sessions, then apply the material with your team.
Test what is running, listen to feedback, then decide what to fix next.
Teachers help on the engineering, AI/ML, and product side. Product Owners help your team understand users and business needs. They give direction and feedback; your team still decides.
