BY THE NUMBERS:

FIRST ROBOTICS:

FIRST Robotics combines sport, science, and technology. Competitions challenge students to work under pressure, strict rules, and limited time and resources. Students are also tasked with raising funds, making a brand for their team, and working with others in their crew to design, test, and program a robot over six-weeks. This industrial-sized robot is then used to compete against other FIRST teams. According to FIRST, it’s as close to “real-world” engineering a high school student can get.
