From Ideas to AI Creations: A Deep Dive into Prompt Engineering Challenge
This competition is a structured, offline Prompt Engineering challenge conducted under INNOVATEX 4.0. The event focuses on developing industry-relevant skills in interacting with Generative AI systems through effective prompt design, iterative refinement, and ethical AI usage.
Participants will work in teams to solve real-world problem statements by designing structured prompts that guide AI tools toward accurate, relevant, and creative outputs. The competition emphasizes clarity, logical structuring, constraint design, output formatting, and optimization strategies.
Guidelines:
Eligibility:
Open to undergraduate and postgraduate students from all recognized colleges.
Students from any specialization (Engineering, Management, Design, Sciences, etc.) are eligible.
Participants must carry a valid college ID card.
Team Composition:
Team size: 4 members per team (mandatory).
Inter-college teams: Allowed.
Inter-specialization teams: Allowed.
A participant can be part of only one team.
No changes in team members will be allowed after registration closes.
Competition Format:
The competition consists of one major challenge round followed by presentations:
Round 1: Prompt Engineering Challenge (Core Round)
Real-world problem statements will be assigned to each team on the day of the event.
Domains may include education, healthcare, business intelligence, software development, content generation, and analytics.
Duration: 4 hours (excluding lunch break)
Teams must:
Analyze the problem statement
Design structured prompts
Iteratively test and refine prompts
Document prompt versions and improvements
Generate AI outputs with justification
Final Presentation Round:
All teams will present before the jury.
Presentation Duration: 5–7 minutes per team
Q&A: 2–3 minutes per team
Total Event Duration: 7 hours
Submission Requirements:
Each team must submit:
Final structured prompt
Iteration log (minimum 2 refinements)
AI-generated outputs
