FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a nonprofit organization with robotic programs for students aged 4-18. The programs are designed to inspire the next generation to purse career opportunities in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics).
This year, Hines will sponsor the TechnoDogs robotics team from Brighton, MI. The Brighton High School team competes in the FIRST Robotics competitions at state and international competitions. Community leaders contribute as mentors and sponsors at the tournaments to help students build a network of business and engineering professionals that help foster their skills. Jacob Jackson from Hines engineering team, has volunteered as a coach to assist students with engineering and CAD.
We wish the team luck on future competitions!
