International Robotics Competitions

“Everyone has a humble beginning, mine was with WRO and FIRST competitions. Participating in these programs enhanced my logical, analytic and communicational skills and really challenged my patience when the robot didn’t toe the line. It helped me connect with other people across the globe sharing the same passion. WRO and FIRST competitions broadened my view in the application of science and technology and paved a way to pursue engineering at Princeton University.” -Arsh Shah Dilbagi (Former Participant WRO & FLL)

 

WORLD ROBOT OLYMPIAD INDIA

An enlightened STEM based robotics competition that engages team of up to 3 students in scientifc challenges to develope their creativity, design and problem solving skills.
School Category: 9-18 Years

 

 

FIRST® LEGO® League?

FIRST® LEGO® League introduces science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) to children ages 4-16* through fun, exciting hands-on learning. Participants gain real-world problem solving experience through a guided, global robotics program, helping today’s students and teachers build a better future together. Our three divisions inspire youth to experiment and grow their critical thinking, coding, and design skills through hands-on STEM learning and robotics.
Age: 9-16 years

Impact

Since 2006, our efforts have been dedicated to popularize STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) education in India through hands-on Robotics initiatives like establishing robotics labs, workshops, competitive events, teachers’ training and many more.

World Robot Olympiad Association (WRO)

World Robot Olympiad Association (WRO) is a Singapore based non-profit organization serving a worldwide community of more than 22,000 teams in 60+ countries with fun and challenging robotics and STEM activities. WRO has been building this learning platform for 13 years now. The first WRO competition was in 2004 where with participation of 12 countries and 4000 teams.

Every year WRO competition is structured around a new challenge based on a real-life or science theme. The competition is conducted at multiple levels (inter school, regional & national) across countries where teams compete to qualify for the international championship. The international championship scheduled in November is the culmination of each year’s season.

The opportunity organise the international championship is given to different country each year, similar to Olympiad format. In 2016, India hosted the WRO India ‘Rap the Scrap’ season which was jointly organised by India STEM Foundation & National Council of Science Museum, Ministry of Culture.

For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST)

FIRST, is a USA based not-for-profit public charity founded in 1989 to inspire young people’s interest and participation in science and technology. FIRST programs: Jr. FIRST LEGO League (Jr. FLL), FIRST LEGO League (FLL), FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) & FIRST Robotics Challenge (FRC) are popular in more than 75 countries and impact over 400,000 students. These programs motivate young people to pursue education and career opportunities in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), while building self-confidence, knowledge, and life skills. Every season teams across the countries compete at different levels (qualifier, regional, national) to qualify & represent their countries at the FIRST Championship (USA) and other international events including European Open & Asia Pacific Invitational.

India STEM Foundation is the National Affiliate Partner of FIRST and has been instrumental in implementing Jr. FIRST LEGO League (Jr. FLL) and FIRST LEGO League (FLL) in India since 2009. Indian teams have received accolades and stood best at FIRST Championship & other FIRST international events.

OUR SUPPORTERS

We have been able to share a great understanding with some of the best corporates who have actively partnered with our programs to spread contemporary education in India. Robotics education is being talked worldwide today and has become an integral part of academics in most of the developed countries. Robotics based programs and competitions are the best platforms to unleash creativity, innovativeness, and self-learning.

Hear from our Fans

We are able to connect with individuals from all walks of life through our programs and our enthusiasm & commitment gets twofold when we hear from them!

Volunteer
Although hesitated to volunteer for the Robotics competitions as I don’t have a technical background, I had a great time while coordinating & interacting with the judges at the World Robot Olympiad. It was indeed a great experience and would  love to continue my volunteering in the future programs too!

Participant
I am participating in WRO & FIRST programs since my school days along with my friends. We use to have a lot of fun while finding out solutions for the challenges and every season we get to learn new real world challenges. Along with lot of learning, participation at FIRST programs (FTC) has helped me to get scholarship for my bachelors degree at USA.
