The First Program
Under strict rules, limited resources, and the guidance of volunteer mentors including engineers, teachers, business professionals, parents, alumni and more, teams of students have just six weeks to build and program robots to perform challenging tasks against a field of competitors. They must also raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and perform community outreach in the off-season. In addition to learning valuable STEM and life skills, participants are eligible to apply for $25+ million in college scholarships.
