Engineering skills for the future

Students work together to solve a real-world problem, build and program a LEGO-based robot, and present their ideas in a fun, challenge-based environment.

FLL can have a strong impact on students by building problem-solving, creativity, communication, and teamwork skills while also increasing confidence and interest in STEM subjects. This robotics program can develop habits of learning that support future success in future robotics programs and beyond. Students typically advance to FTC, Drone, and FRC programs.

Design, Fabricate, Build, Program, Drive.

The FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) shows students how to strategize about creating a robot that meets the requirements of the themed challenge. Using 3D CAD, fabrication, and programming, teams create a functional robot that utilizes motors, sensors, and other hardware to drive, pick up objects, and score points with their alliance team.
