RUMAD is a student-led tech club dedicated to educating the Rutgers community on how to make their innovative ideas to life with mobile app development.
The goal of the Accelerator is to take students from knowing nothing about app development to a level where
they can build and ship their own apps. They will pick a track from iOS, Android,
or Backend development to learn about.
We will also provide every mentee in the Accelerator program with close mentorship from an experienced
mentor. They will receive career and academic guidance to help ensure they are successful in their journey
at Rutgers and beyond.
Applications are released every Fall semester.
The RUMAD Incubator program is perfect for anyone who is looking to apply their iOS, Android, or Backend development skills in a structured manner. You will be working on a team to create a mobile app project. This project can be anything your team chooses. You are expected to contribute to the development of your project each week on your own time. In addition, you will have meetings with your mentor and other team members each week as well. These meetings will be approximately 1 hour long and can involve coding, delegating tasks, or debugging any issues which you could not fix on your own time during the week. The meetings will help keep you and your group on track to finishing your project!
