Generative AI and Prompt Engineering: Principles, Methods and Engineering Applications

Generative A.I. & Prompt Engineering: Principles, Methods and Engineering Applications introduces readers to the foundations of generative artificial intelligence and the practical art of communicating effectively with AI systems. It explains how well-designed prompts can support learning, problem-solving, programming, technical writing, and engineering design.Bridging principles with practice, the book develops a systematic approach to framing instructions, providing context, refining outputs, and evaluating responses. It also emphasizes responsible use, critical thinking, and the verification of AI-generated content. Designed for students, educators, researchers, and practicing engineers, this text encourages readers to use generative AI thoughtfully and confidently in academic and professional work.
