FIRST® Robotics Competition challenges high-school students (under the guidance of a volunteer professional) to raise funds, construct a team "brand", and design, build, and program an industrial-sized robot, to compete in a field-game with strict rules and various tasks. It allows students to experience and participate in complex engineering processes, develop authentic business and marketing skills, and promote the growth of leadership, communication, and other team skills invaluable in the workplace and everyday life.
FIRST® is a prominent non-profit public charity that designs accessible programs to empower young people to pursue education and careers in science, technology, engineering, and math and also build personal skills to become leaders and innovators in the workplace. It stimulates the growth of these skills by engaging students in menter-based programs. FIRST® has huge impact, creating a huge global community of people passionate about STEM, with over 680,000 students, ranging from Pre-K to 12th grade.
