University of Portland — Capstone Workshop
February 13, 2026
A hands-on session for graduating engineers — mechanical, computer science, and everything in between. Learn the prompting, grounding, and agentic thinking skills that help you show up day one already ahead, no matter what role you land.

The same question, two ways. See how adding role, audience, format, and focus transforms a generic AI response into something you could actually use.
AI gives textbook answers by default. Add your real-world constraints and watch the recommendation change completely — or not, which is the whole point.
Upload a real document and see how AI behaves with and without grounding instructions. Then try to catch it making things up.
Use Copilot Agent Builder to create a custom AI assistant grounded in a company handbook. Then try to break it.
You bring the expertise. AI extends your reach. The difference between a toy demo and a real engineering workflow is real-world context.
