They're building robots.
We're building a workforce.
How's that for ingenuity?
THE SPARK IS NOW FULL COMBUSTION! Faced with an aging manufacturing workforce, The Pittsburgh Chapter of the National Tooling and Machining Association spear-headed efforts to bring a national student robotics program to the Pittsburgh region. Local manufacturers and educators joined forces in 2005, and with just 6 schools, launched BotsIQ. Now, in its seventh year, the program has exploded to include more than 40 schools and its own fan base. Working with a Robotics Curriculum based on the National Curriculum Standards and Massachusetts Institute of Technology's (MIT) mechanical engineering methodology, southwestern Pennsylvania students are taught to design, build and battle robots in a gladiator-style competition. The competition draws on students' knowledge of math, science, engineering and even public speaking. Perhaps most importantly, students see that building things is challenging, it's fun, and IT'S A POTENTIAL CAREER.
Students, their teachers and their manufacturing partners are working RIGHT NOW to construct their bots for battle. The preliminary competition is set for MARCH 23 & 24, 2012 AT CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA. The finals will be held on APRIL 13 & 14, 2012 AT WESTMORELAND COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN YOUNGWOOD, PA.

The Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) Center coordinates an international student underwater robotics (remotely operated vehicle or ROV) competition and a network of 21 regional ROV contests that take place across U.S. and in Canada, Hong Kong, Scotland, and Japan. Student teams from upper elementary, middle schools, high schools, home schools, community colleges, universities, and community organizations, such as the Boys and Girls Club and 4-H, participate. The competitions consist of three different "classes" that vary depending on the sophistication of the ROVs and the mission requirements.
