The first-year engineeringstudents may go on to earn an engineering degree in any of the more than 25 engineeringdisciplines offered by the University. The fourth-year students are all enrolled in the B. S. inMultidisciplinary Engineering Design (MDE) program, a four-year degree that incorporatescoursework and practical experience in mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering with anoverarching emphasis on engineering design.The first-year students are taking a Cornerstone Engineering Design course, EDSGN 100. This isa required course for most engineering majors that introduces students to engineeringfundamentals. The course

While some industry applications, such as Fernandeset al.'s [13] DAVE system, demonstrate custom GPT-powered solutions for BIM environments,our study uniquely focuses on teaching students to develop and deploy their own custom AIchatbots. Through our approach, students learn to create chatbots that can be deployed on theirown websites and easily shared with stakeholders, without requiring extensive programmingknowledge. By emphasizing tailored prompt engineering and leveraging
