The camp will be hosted at SP Jain Global Dubai Campus, our official Knowledge Partner for the Camp.

The Winter Camp will run from 16th to 21st December 2026.

9 AM - 6 PM

Yes, each day we will have 2 snacks & beverage breaks and a lunch break, giving us timely recharge and refreshment to continue the momentum. One at 11 AM for 15 minutes, another at 1 PM for 30 minutes, and one at 4 PM for 15 minutes.

Yes. The students will be provided with morning shakes and cookies, lunch, and a light evening snack with juice on campus each day.

We don't run accommodation directly, but can support residential students with help securing nearby accommodation at fair pricing, with transport between accommodation and campus. We also have evening activities through the week, including a gaming night, movie night, jamming night, and an outdoor closing activity.

Students are under continuous supervision by designated program mentors and coordinators, with both male and female staff present. All our classes will have first aid kits and medicines available and we are committed to making this a safe experience for each child.

Each student will be given a Photo ID Card with all necessary details and for safe pick-up and drops, we will also provide a unique card to each parent to ensure the entire experience is smooth and safe. We have taken special care about security and the entire premise will be under CCTV Surveillance.

The camp is designed as a highly interactive, in-person experience, so students are encouraged to attend all sessions. In some cases where recording is feasible, sessions may be recorded for limited reference, but regular participation is strongly recommended.

Our Winter Camp is open to students from Grades 8–12, across all streams like Science, Commerce, and Humanities. We welcome students with all kinds of career aspirations, whether they dream of becoming doctors, engineers, IAS officers, entrepreneurs, artists, researchers, or are still unsure about their path. The program is built on the belief that becoming future‑ready is every student’s right, regardless of background or career goal.

Yes, completely. The camp is designed for beginners and does not assume any prior knowledge of AI, startups, finance, public speaking, or career planning. All concepts are introduced in a simple, structured, and hands‑on manner.

Students apply online by sharing basic details. Our team then connects with the student for a short, friendly interaction, and the final confirmation is shared after this conversation.

This is not an exam or elimination round. It is a conversation to ensure the program is a good fit for the student and to set the right expectations on both sides.

There are no marks‑based cut‑offs or subject requirements. Selection is based on a student’s interest, openness to learning, and willingness to actively participate.

Each batch is limited to 70 students to ensure personalised attention, meaningful interaction with experts, and a high‑quality learning experience.

Students are expected to have access to a laptop (Windows or Mac) on which they can operate AI platforms to create projects and basic comfort with using online tools and browsers. The wifi will be provided at the venue.

No specialised software is required beforehand. Most tools used during the program are web‑based, and clear instructions will be shared wherever access or setup is needed.

Students are encouraged to attend all sessions. However, one or two unavoidable absences may still be considered while awarding the certificate.

The Early Bird fee (valid till 15th October) is AED 4499. The Standard fee (from 16th October onwards) is AED 4899.

Yes. A group discount of AED 300 per student is available for groups of four or more students applying together.

The fee covers all academic sessions, expert‑led workshops, program resources, career exploration tools, participation in competitions, certificates, and meals during session hours.

Payments are made through a secure online payment link directly to the account of SP Jain Global. You can pay using debit cards, credit cards, or opt for EMI options as supported by the payment gateway.

The program fee is generally expected to be paid as a one‑time payment. In exceptional cases, students may request an installment option with a valid rationale, which will be reviewed on a case‑by‑case basis.

Withdrawal within 5 days of payment gets a full refund, withdrawal between day 6 and day 10 gets 50 percent, and there's no refund after day 10. In the rare case the camp cannot go ahead due to circumstances beyond our control, students are issued a credit toward a future edition rather than a cash refund.

We understand that parents are the most important stakeholders in any child's journey and we deeply care about enabling them with the right awareness and means so they can support the students in the best possible way.

There are 3 dedicated online parent sessions, each led by a different expert — an IIT Kharagpur professor, a global digital wellbeing expert, and an adolescent psychology expert. For more details about the experts & the session, please check out the ‘For Parents’ section of the website 

These sessions are designed to help parents understand the science behind the teenage mind, helping parents support their child’s wellbeing and decision-making, share practical tips from each expert's field, and clarify parents' specific questions in real time. The goal is to equip parents with concrete ways to support their child's growth without burnout, through the program and beyond.

The sessions will be conducted online, on the weekends after the summer camp is over. There are four sessions of approximately 1.5 hours each. More details will be provided in the whatsapp group we will create for the parents

Yes. Every student gets a one-on-one session with the Founder after the camp to discuss their career direction and build a forward roadmap, plus access to virtual industry internship with Celonis and the online Business Case Competition run in association with Celonis. 

They will also participate in an AI challenge judged by experts from Amazon, Google, Indigo etc. We will also share exclusive ebooks around AI, Entrepreneurship, Soft Skills, and guidebooks on getting internships, AI project ideas, on getting into Ivy League Universities, and more. 

Beyond this we keep sharing resources on an ongoing basis, and continue supporting students who want to build further on their startup ideas or have any doubts. The idea is to keep the community thriving well beyond the six days of camp.

For certain topics, such as communication or emotional resilience, students will be grouped separately (Grades 8–10 and 11–12) to keep discussions more relevant. Other sessions may be conducted together to encourage collaboration across Grades 8–12 while ensuring that students across different grades derive the same benefit.

Learning is experiential and interactive, with live projects, simulations, discussions, case‑based thinking, reflections, and teamwork rather than passive lectures.

The goal is not to create mastery in one subject but to provide structured exposure, strong foundations, and guided exploration. Students leave with clarity, practical skills, live projects, and tools they can continue using long after the camp ends.

Sessions are led by professionals from fields such as finance, AI, mental health, public speaking, & startups, with experience across institutions like IIT Kharagpur, SP Jain, BITS Pilani, Deloitte, Niti Aayog, TedEd, EY, etc

Academic success alone does not guarantee emotional health. The program consciously addresses stress, anxiety, digital overload, and resilience, helping students grow without burning out.

Yes. Wellbeing sessions are designed and facilitated by qualified psychologists and public mental health experts, ensuring a responsible and age‑appropriate approach.

Bhaskar is a graduate of IIT Kharagpur and Stanford, currently a Mentor with NITI Aayog (Atal Tinkering Labs), and a guest speaker at Masters' Union, Mesa School, and IIT Kharagpur. He has coached 1000+ students, professionals, and founders on career clarity, job readiness, and startup building. He has previously worked with Fortune 500 brands like Tata, Titan, and Asian Paints, and partnered with Google, Amazon, and Microsoft.

Roobaroo's work is backed by a wide network of researchers and professionals — including professors from IITs and TISS, and professionals from companies like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. The network includes alumni from institutions like Harvard, Stanford, and UC San Diego, as well as people working across government bodies such as IPS Officers, and social impact organizations, including the Azim Premji Foundation. We have 25+ onboarded mentors, field experts, and advisors supporting our work.

Bhaskar has watched closely how the world of work and wellbeing is shifting — and started Roobaroo.ai to help students grow without burning out and truly thrive, not just perform. The idea came from seeing, again and again, how talented young people are pushed toward achievement without being given the clarity or emotional tools to sustain it.

Growth and wellbeing have long been sold as two separate worlds — but life doesn't work that way. Roobaroo builds holistic programs that integrate career guidance, skill-building, profile-building, and wellbeing into one journey, because young minds need more than career prep alone — they need clarity, future-proof skills, portfolio, and confidence to stand out in the AI world along with wellbeing to sustain themselves as they grow.

Roobaroo.ai is primarily an Indian company. In the UAE, we will be conducting the winter camp in collaboration with SP Jain Global Dubai Campus — all invoicing and billing for the Dubai camp is handled by the Institute. We are opening our summer camp for the UAE after receiving an overwhelming number of enquiry from the parents there while we were doing the IIT Delhi Summer Camp in India.

We had organised two editions of summer camp in June 2026 which saw participation of 80 students from 70 schools and 26 cities across India. We have received very satisfactory feedback from both students and parents alike and are proud that our program is uniquely different from all such programs in the nation.
