Robotic Warriors Club<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Robotic Warriors Club (RWC) is a yearlong (16-week) after-school program where middle and high school students will receive hands-on experience designing, developing, programming, and constructing robots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A primary goal for this club is to prepare student teams to enter one of their own robots in the annual\u202fNational Robotics Challenge<\/a>\u202f(NRC) in Marion, Ohio. Indiana Tech has supported teams in the NRC since 1995 and has a long history of winning at this competition. This year\u2019s NRC will be on April 15-17th 2027. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Robotic Warriors Club has two divisions\u2014an introductory division for first-year students (6th-9th grade) just joining RWC. This division will introduce them to the world of robotics through building, coding, and testing Maze bots. The advanced division for eighth- through 12th-graders that will guide them toward advanced robotic design and programming. Students will receive two hours of instruction every other Wednesday from Indiana Tech engineering faculty and advisors who are experienced in robotics. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
