The VEX IQ Robotics Lab introduces students to computer science, robotics, and engineering through a hands-on, team-based experience. Members will design, build, and program robots using VEX IQ components—snap-together plastic parts that allow for creative, functional designs. Along the way, students will develop essential STEM skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, and innovation. Throughout the year, teams will work together to prepare for the VEX IQ Challenge, a competitive, Olympic-style robotics competition where students complete specific tasks using their custom-built robots. The process encourages students to refine their skills in programming, mechanical design, and strategic planning—all while building confidence and having fun. Whether you're an aspiring engineer or simply curious to try something new and exciting, the VEX IQ Robotics Lab offers a supportive and inspiring space to learn, build, and compete.
