FIRST Robotics
The FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is a worldwide robotics competition consisting of over 3,500 teams. Each year brings a new competition that challenges students to design, build, and test a robot. Teams must work together under strict rules, limited resources, and deadlines. FRC prepares students to enter the workforce with practical experience and teamwork skills. It’s as close to “real-world engineering” as a student can get!
