Our Mission
The mission of FIRST Indiana Robotics is to inspire young people to be science and technology leaders and innovators, by engaging them in exciting mentor-based programs that build science, engineering, and technology skills, that inspire innovation, and that foster well-rounded life capabilities including self-confidence, communication, and leadership. Expanding access to the program across the state boosts the number of Hoosier students entering the Indiana tech workforce and gives them the skills they need to thrive.
Our Vision
FIRST Indiana Robotics is a robotics community that prepares young people for the future through a suite of inclusive, team-based robotics programs for ages 4-18 (PreK-12) that can be facilitated in school or in structured after-school programs in Indiana. Boosted by the FIRST® global support system of volunteers, educators, and sponsors that include over 200 of the Fortune 500 companies, our teams operate under a signature set of FIRST Core Values to conduct research, fundraise, design, build, and showcase their achievements during annual challenges.
