Human in the Loop: Expectations in the Agentic AI Era

November 4, 2026 @ 10:30 am - 11:30 am

The discussion covers which fundamentals have become more important rather than less, where new graduates fall short when an AI system produces the first draft, what curricula should stop doing to make room, and what a student beginning a degree today should do differently.

The format is conversational, with no presentations. The final portion of the session is reserved for questions from the audience. Students, early-career engineers, and faculty are all encouraged to attend.
