FIRST Tech Challenge


FIRST Tech Challenge gives middle and high school students hands-on experience with engineering, programming, and teamwork. Students work with mentors to design, build, and program robots for an annual competition.

Teams develop their ideas, test their robots, and improve their designs as they prepare to compete together.
