FIRST Robotics Competition
Season-long robotics with a real team — the classic sustained engineering commitment.
- Engineering
- Computer Science
- Who can enter
- Grades 9–12, as part of a registered school or community team
- What it costs
- Team-based and costly: a rookie team's registration and kit run into thousands of dollars, plus travel. As a student you normally join an existing school team and pay little or nothing — ask what your team charges.
- When it closes
- We could not confirm this year's date against the organiser's own page, so we are not showing a countdown for it. Last published: Team registration autumn; build season Jan–Mar.
Sending this to someone sends the four facts above, not just a name — they will see who can enter and what it costs before they decide.
