Robotics Regional Competition

FIRST Robotics Competition events are, in the words of our teams, "full of passion, excitement, joy, and sorrow...the thrill of success and the agony of defeat." The FIRST Robotics Competition has grown to 30 events, one of which is the Boilermaker Regional competition hosted by Purdue FIRST Programs. Teams from the United States, Canada, Brazil, Great Britain, Ecuador, Israel and possibly additional countries are expected to compete in FIRST events this year. Visit the Boilermaker Regional Event Page for more information.

LEGO League Qualifying Tournament

Purdue FIRST Programs is also the proud host of a LEGO League Qualifying Tournament. These events allow team members to come together to celebrate their accomplishments and recognize teams for their excellence in various aspects of the process. Robot design and performance, teamwork, sportsmanship, and documented research are some criteria the judges use to determine award winners and present the trophies that signify team excellence.
