Any university student or recent graduate in computer science, software engineering, design or a related field. We accept first-year through final-year students.

We run several free cohorts each year supported by KPITB and PSEB. Self-funded slots are also available at heavily subsidised rates. Apply and we will share the current options.

Hybrid — most mentorship happens online, with optional in-person sessions and demo days at our Peshawar space.
2Strategy, Placement & Support
Q:How much time will it take per week?
8–12 hours per week is typical. We expect commitment — this is not a passive course.

No serious mentorship programme can guarantee placement. What we promise is real projects, real mentors and real introductions — the rest is up to your effort.
