Curriculum

Four modules, one product.

75 hours of hands-on building over 12 weekends, from first Python program to a device that senses and acts.

  1. Weeks 1–4

    Software and computing

    Python, APIs and SQLite databases. No prior coding needed.

    Outcome: A working Python tool and database backend for the capstone.

  2. Weeks 5–6

    AI and automation

    Machine learning, deep learning, RL agents and image processing.

    Outcome: Train a model and build a smart assistant into the product.

  3. Weeks 7–9

    IoT and robotics

    Low-voltage ESP32 electronics, sensors, servos and networking.

    Outcome: Wire sensors and a servo to give the software a physical body.

  4. Weeks 10–12

    Entrepreneurship

    Market discovery, customer interviews, cost sheets and Demo Day.

    Outcome: Pitch the finished prototype to parents, teachers and guests.

For Grades 10–12

Proof of work, not just marks.

Admissions panels and internship recruiters look for what a student has actually built. Every Future Builder leaves with four things to show.

  • 1

    A public GitHub repository

    Python, APIs and ESP32 firmware, documented with a README.

  • 2

    A recorded Demo Day pitch

    Three minutes explaining the build, the testing and the business case.

  • 3

    A working device

    A physical gadget with live sensor data that the student keeps improving.

  • 4

    A certificate of completion

    75 contact hours across software, AI, IoT and entrepreneurship.

FAQ

Questions from parents

When are the classes?

Live classes run on Saturday evenings + Sunday mornings, about 3 hours per session. Dates for the next cohort have not been announced yet; join the waitlist and we will tell you first. Every session is recorded.

What will my child actually learn to do?

By the end of 12 weeks, your child will write and debug Python programs, train small AI models to recognise images, wire physical IoT circuits, and present a final business pitch. They move from consuming technology to building it.

Do they need prior coding experience?

No. The curriculum is designed for complete beginners in Grades 7 to 12. We teach everything from scratch, starting with basic logic and moving up to AI and hardware.

How does the hardware kit work for an online cohort?

We ship a personal ESP32-C3 hardware kit to your home around week 3 or 4, with free shipping anywhere in India. It includes the microcontroller, a breadboard, sensors (temperature, light, distance), LEDs and a servo motor. In the hardware sessions, instructors guide students step by step over video as they wire and program their own kit. The kit is theirs to keep.

What happens if they miss a live session?

Every live session is recorded and shared with students. If your child misses a class, they watch the recording, catch up on that week’s project, and can bring any questions to the next live session.

What is Demo Day?

Demo Day is the final session of week 12. Teams of 3–4 present the working prototype they built, combining software, AI and hardware, and pitch why it matters to parents, teachers and guests. Each student leaves with a recorded pitch and a certificate of completion.

How many students are in a cohort?

Each cohort is capped at 10 students, so instructors can review every student’s project personally. Once the seats are filled, registration closes early.

Is there a discount for enrolling with a friend?

Yes. If two friends enrol together, or your child was referred by someone already enrolled, use code FRIEND500 at checkout and enter your friend’s name. You save ₹500, and your friend gets ₹500 too: as a discount if they have not paid yet, or as a refund if they already have. One discount code per enrolment.

How does this help students in Grades 10 to 12 applying to university?

Admissions and scholarship panels look for evidence of technical initiative beyond marks. Future Builders students finish with a public GitHub repository of their code, a recorded 3-minute Demo Day pitch, and a certificate of completion: concrete proof of work for applications, essays and interviews.

What does the fee cover, and is there a guarantee?

₹5,499 covers all 12 weeks of live classes, the recordings, and the hardware kit shipped to your door. If Session 1 is not the right fit, request a full refund within 24 hours of it, and the kit is still yours to keep.
