The Robotics Challenge is a fun, team-based competition for students aged 11 to 14. By taking part in this extra-curricular or in-school programme, young people get the opportunity to discover what engineers can do to create a cleaner, sustainable world.
The competition is free to enter and teams can showcase all that has been achieved by attending heats across the UK which begin today. These heats are supported by STEM professionals and young people will have the opportunity to bring engineering to life.
