Proven,Verifiable Impact!
Designing, building, and programming a robot transforms theoretical knowledge into tangible, functional creations. This experiential learning fosters a deep understanding of STEM concepts, making the subjects more relatable and inspiring curiosity.
Team members learn to embrace challenges, iterate on designs, and persist in the face of setbacks. This resilience not only enhances their capacity to tackle complex STEM problems but also bolsters their confidence. The sense of accomplishment derived from overcoming obstacles contributes to a positive feedback loop, reinforcing a belief in their personal capabilities.
Participants in our program will develop technical skills as well as crucial workforce soft skills, including teamwork, communication, problem-solving, logical reasoning, perseverance, resilience, creativity, collaboration and .
The 2022 FIRST Longitudinal Study found that by their fourth year of college, 61% of FIRST program participants declared a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) major.
As a participant and alumni, numerous educational scholarships are available to further your educational pathway, along with the potential exposure and connections to Top STEM industry mentors and employers.
Over the last couple decades our club has done not only local, regional, and world caliber competitive events, but WE with the help of our sponsors make it our focus to give back to our community. You may have seen us showcase our charitable talents at local street fairs, Science Festivals, High school Campus Previews, and/or occasional banquet dinners.
