Robotics Competition?
The FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC) combines the excitement of sport with the rigors and challenges of technology. It is half sports competition and half engineering with innovation as part of design, programming, mechanical systems, and business coming together to build a robot that can complete varied tasks, some with a driver, some with programming only. The experience is team and project orientation under deadlines and pressure. The goal is to build a robot that can function in an arena with and against other teams. This allows for a combination of team troubleshooting, leadership, business acumen, collaboration, competition, teamwork, presentations, and grace under pressure. Working on an FRC team prepares students for troubleshooting, solutions- based management, grit, working with tech and being good team players. It also offers opportunities on how to seek and apply for sponsorships, write business plans, and learn on the fly.
