"The FIRST Robotics Competition is an exciting,
multinational competition that teams professionals and young people to
solve an engineering design problem in an intense and competitive way.
The program is a life-changing, career-molding experience-and a lot of
fun. In 2005 the competition will reach close to 25,000
high-school-aged young people on close to 1,000 teams in 30
competitions. Our teams come from Brazil, Canada, Ecuador, Israel,
Mexico, the U.K., and almost every U.S. state. The competitions are
high-tech spectator sporting events, the result of lots of focused
brainstorming, real-world teamwork, dedicated mentoring, project
timelines, and deadlines. Colleges, universities, corporations,
businesses, and individuals provide scholarships to our participants.
Involved engineers experience again many of the reasons they chose
engineering as a profession, and the companies they work for contribute
to the community while they prepare and create their future workforce.
The competition shows students that the technological fields hold many
opportunities and that the basic concepts of science, math,
engineering, and invention are exciting and interesting." ~US FIRST
