FIRST

FIRST, a nonprofit that offers robotics competitions for students primary/secondary students, has partnered with PTC for a virtual design competition.

STEM projects build on the natural curiosity of children while teaching the scientific method, engineering, physics and biology, and let kids try on careers at an early age.

Student competitions prepare up-and-comers with the hands-on experience necessary to meet the challenges of next-generation engineering.

According to FIRST’s evaluation data, student participants are twice as likely to major in science or engineering.
