If your team is looking for guidance—whether in engineering, programming, outreach, or preparing for judging—we’ve built a mentor network designed to help. This database includes college students, industry professionals, and others in STEM who are excited to support high school robotics teams.
Each mentor listing includes a short bio and areas of expertise. When your team is interested in connecting, simply fill out a quick request form, and we’ll coordinate the introduction via email.
This resource is free to use and open to all FIRST teams.
