What is FIRST®?

FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) builds science, engineering, and technology skills by engaging young people in mentor-based programs that inspire innovation and foster self-confidence, communication, and leadership.

What is FRC®?

The FIRST® Robotics Competition (FRC®) challenges high school teams and their mentors to build a robot in 6 weeks. These robots then compete in a game designed by Dean Kamen, Dr. Woodie Flowers, and a committee of engineers and other professionals.

FRC began in 1992 with 28 teams and a single 14 x 14-foot playing field in a high school gym. Today more than 4,000 teams participate nationally and internationally.
