What is FIRST Robotics Competition?
|
The FIRST Robotics Competition pairs high school students with adult mentors—primarily engineers, teachers, and industry professionals—to design, build, and program industrial-sized robots to compete in a high-energy, team-based environment. Each year, teams are challenged with a new game that encourages innovation, collaboration, and strategic thinking.
Beyond the technical skills, students also gain experience in project management, teamwork, public speaking, and community outreach. The competition mirrors real-world engineering challenges and fosters a culture of Gracious Professionalism™, where competitors treat each other with respect and kindness, even in the heat of competition. It’s not just about building robots—it’s about building future leaders, problem-solvers, and changemakers. |
