The
FIRST Robotics Competition is a multi-national engineering contest,
which immerses high school students in the exciting world of
engineering. Teaming up with engineers from businesses and universities,
students get a hands-on, inside look at the engineering profession.
In six intense weeks, students and engineers work together to
brainstorm, design, construct and test their "champion
robot". With only six weeks, all jobs are critical path.
The teams then compete in a spirited, no-holds-barred tournament
complete with referees, mascots, cheerleaders and time clocks.
The partnerships
developed between schools, businesses, and universities provide
an exchange of resources and talent, highlighting mutual needs,
building cooperation, and exposing students to new career choices.
The result is a fun, exciting and stimulating environment in
which all participants discover the important connection between
classroom lessons and real world applications.
