Agentic AI represents the next frontier of artificial intelligence, moving beyond static models to autonomous, goal-driven agents that can reason, plan, take actions, and collaborate with humans or other systems. These capabilities are already reshaping industries from healthcare to finance, education, defense, and sustainability.This hackathon challenges participants to learn agentic AI frameworks, engage with industry mentors, and design impactful solutions to meaningful real-world problems. Teams will identify a challenge where agentic AI can provide unique value and then prototype an agentic system that demonstrates the potential for societal or industry benefit.This hackathon is open to all FAU students.Format• Teams: 3–5 students.• Goal: Identify and solve a real problem using agentic AI frameworks, tools, or methodologies.• Deliverables: A working prototype, simulation, or design architecture, along with a 5 min presentation.• Approach: Teams may build with open-source frameworks, extend existing models, or develop novel workflows.Pre-Hackathon WorkshopsPre-hackathon workshops will help participants build skills and shape ideas:• Intro to Agentic AI Frameworks (LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, etc.)• Industry Talks: Opportunities and challenges of deploying agentic AI.• Ideation Labs: Guided sessions to help teams define meaningful problems and solution strategies.Workshops will be on Zoom on from 4:00pm–6:00pm on Oct 24, Oct 31, and Nov 7.Register on Canvas: https://canvas.fau.edu/enroll/NLD6ALEvaluation CriteriaTeams will be judged on:• Insights – Did the team deeply understand the problem and opportunity?• Innovation – How novel and creative is the agentic AI solution?• Impact – What is the potential societal, industrial, or scientific impact?• Usability – Is the solution practical and user-friendly?• Scalability – Can it generalize or scale beyond the prototype?Contact for SponsorshipMichael Miller Director of Development College of Engineering and Computer Science Florida Atlantic University 📞 561-297-2083 | ✉️ millermichael@fau.edu
