Overview

The RoboJackets Outreach team's mission is the promotion of science and engineering education in K-12 students. Working primarily though FIRST programs, we engage students directly to facilitate hands-on learning through competitive robotics.

We currently have four projects we work on throughout the year to achieve this mission:

  • Technology Enrichment Sessions - educational workshops leveraging the FIRST Robotics Competition to teach fundamental robotics concepts to area students.
  • FRC Kickoff - the announcement event for the FIRST Robotics Competition. In 2016, over 1000 students were in attendance on campus.
  • FRC Mentorship - working directly with an FRC team, we act as coaches and mentors to assist students throughout the academic year, including building a competition robot over an intensive six week build season. The team we are currently working with is FRC 6705, WildCat 5e.
  • Robot In 1 Weekend - building a robot for the FIRST Tech Challenge in the span of one weekend when its build season starts. The aim of this is not to compete, but to inspire students in the competition at the start of their build season.
