Based inHunza.
E47 works in Hunza, Gilgit–Baltistan. The free course is taught here in the valley, to students from here — and capstone projects are pointed, where possible, at real problems the valley faces.
MISSION & VISION
Move fromcurious tobuilding.
Give capable students in underserved regions the tools, mentorship, and hands-on engineering experience to move from curious, to capable, to building real things.
We want a Pakistan where a student’s zip code — not their ability — is no longer the limiting factor on what they can build or become.
HOW WE WORK — FOUR COMMITMENTS, IN ORDER
01Educate
Teach real engineering skills, not just theory
02Elevate
Raise students' sense of what's possible for their future
03Empower
Hand over tools and ownership, not just instruction
04Excel
Push toward real, working output — not certificates
WHO WE SERVE
Three tracks,one program.
The free Hunza course is the mission; the paid track funds it, and the Sandbox carries graduates on to building real ventures.
E47Free Track
The Hunza course. Free, and the whole point.
Students in Hunza, selected through application and interview. Cohort 1 targets 50–75 students, secondary school through early college.
Use it for
- Selected by application and interview, never ability to pay
- Five courses in order, CAD through a mechatronic capstone
- Every student finishes with a working device they built
E47Paid Track
Paid courses elsewhere in Pakistan.
Students elsewhere in Pakistan, via paid courses and — from Year 2 — a paid 10-day Hunza immersion. A funding mechanism, not a separate mission.
Use it for
- Same curriculum, delivered outside the valley
- Year 2: an optional 10-day Hunza immersion
- Revenue flows straight back into the free track
E47Sandbox
Graduates turning a capstone into a venture.
Hunza program alumni turning a capstone idea into a real venture, supported through the Sandbox incubator from Year 2.
Use it for
- Opens from Year 2, for program alumni
- Mentorship, workspace, and a path to first customers
- Aimed at real problems in Gilgit–Baltistan
SPACE 47
Five courses,taken in order.
Each course builds on the one before: design a part in CAD, wire it up, race it, code it, then bring it all together in a working device.

How thecoursesrun.
Small cohorts, taught in Urdu, on the same kind of tools engineers use. Every course ends with something students built themselves.
