Robotics
Robotics I
Robotics I introduces students to engineering, programming, and design through hands-on experiences that combine creativity with real-world problem solving. Students explore robotics concepts while learning how technology, coding, and engineering work together to create innovative solutions.
Throughout the course, students design, build, and test robotic systems using motors, sensors, and specialized components. Students gain experience with tools and platforms such as Autodesk Fusion 360, Python, VEX VR, and Robot C while applying concepts in automation, programming, physics, and engineering design. Students collaborate in teams to solve challenges, refine prototypes, and showcase their work through practical applications.
Students may also have opportunities to earn industry-recognized robotics and design credentials while exploring future pathways in engineering, robotics, automation, and technology-related careers.
