The AI Engineering with Claude Nanodegree program prepares developers to build and ship production-grade AI agent systems with Claude, the Claude Agent SDK, the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and Claude Code. Across four project-based courses, you'll go beyond demos to engineer the "harness" that runs an agent in production: controlling the agentic loop, governing MCP tools, evaluating systems so silent failures surface before customers do, and enforcing rules in code with bounded autonomy and human-in-the-loop guardrails. Portfolio projects are anchored in real industry scenarios from insurance, retail, financial services, and manufacturing, including an MCP-powered "Agentic Analyst" and an enterprise multi-agent code-review orchestrator.
