FIRST Robotics Competition combines the excitement of sports with the rigors of science. Under strict rules, limited resources, and the guidance of volunteer mentors including engineers, teachers, business professionals, parents, alumni and more, teams of 25+ students build and program robots to perform challenging tasks against a field of competitors. Teams must also raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and perform community outreach. In addition to learning valuable STEM and life skills, participants are eligible to apply for $80 million in college scholarships.
FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is the the ultimate sport for the mind amoung high-school student participants and call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.”
Visitors can see how teams used limited time and resources to design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult basketball-sized field game against like-minded competitors. It’s as close to real-world engineering sport as you can get.
Admission is free and all are welcome.
