Welcome!
VEX Competitions require students to solve real engineering problems as a team by designing a robot to play against other teams in a game-based engineering challenge. Each season the game changes and competitions are held year round at the regional, state and national levels. Each season ends at the culminating event in May when teams from around the world compete for world championship titles at the VEX Robotics World Championship.
Even the best robotics programs in the world had to start with building their first robot. This website will provide the resources and curriculum you need to begin learning the engineering design process required to build your first robot or to help you remember what it takes to win championship titles. |
