Executive Post Graduate Certificate in Generative AI & Agentic AI
Department of Computer Science & Engineering, IIT Kharagpur
About EPGC in Generative AI & Agentic AI
A production first postgraduate online programme designed and delivered for the first time ever by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Kharagpur. The Generative AI and Agentic AI course curriculum offers end-to-end academic and applied training in Agentic AI certification, covering foundational models, system design, and production deployment.
Established in 1951, IIT Kharagpur is India’s first IIT and among the world’s most respected engineering institutions. Ranked 5th in Engineering by NIRF 2025, the Institute is recognised for high-impact research, strong global citation performance, and sustained contributions to artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced computing systems.
This agentic AI and generative AI program draws directly from IIT Kharagpur’s academic depth and research leadership, preparing engineers to design, customise, and deploy next-generation AI systems, from large language models to agent-based architectures operating in real-world environments.
A Production-First Generative AI and Agentic AI Programme led by IIT Kharagpur’s Computer Science Department
Faculty Leadership
Taught by professors from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Kharagpur.
Academic Rigour
Research-backed instruction with strong theoretical grounding and applied relevance.
Curriculum Progression
Generative AI → Large Language Models → Customisation and Fine-Tuning → Retrieval-Augmented Generation → Agentic AI → Production Deployment.
Industry Capstone & Projects
Two-week guided project under faculty mentorship.
Executive Alumni Status & Award Ceremony
Certificate presentation held on campus at IIT Kharagpur.
Curriculum Highlights: Design, Build, & Deploy AI that works in Production
The curriculum also focuses on building agentic AI architectures and AI agents capable of executing multi-step tasks using large language models and external tools.
Research-Backed Credibility
Faculty publish in ICML, NeurIPS,ICCV, ACL and IEEE Transactions. The curriculum reflects active research, not tool trends
100% Faculty-Led Learning
All sessions taught by IIT Kharagpur faculty. No outsourced instructors, only academic depth. Live Session Schedule: Saturday, 10 AM to 1 PM
End-to-End LLM Engineering and Deployment
Learn how LLMs are built and how they behave in real systems. Build, serve & monitor with latency, cost & reliability in mind.
Modern fine-tuning
Master PEFT, LoRA & QLoRA to customise LLMs and SLMs for your use case. Evaluate gains against a baseline & iterate with confidence.
Beyond GenAI to Agentic AI
Move beyond chatbots to systems that plan, use tools & coordinate tasks. Build agent workflows you can measure, debug & maintain.
