Build, innovate, and be inspired! Join Women in Robotics SE Michigan Chapter for a hands-on robotics adventure where you'll work alongside women engineers and STEAM professionals to build, program, and explore the exciting world of robotics.
Ready to discover what it's like to be a robotics engineer? Join the Women in Robotics SE Michigan Chapter and Girl Scouts for an exciting hands-on experience funded by a grant from GM where you'll learn from women working in robotics, engineering, technology, and other STEAM careers.
First time participants to the event will build and program their own mBot robot to take home, gaining valuable skills in robotics, coding, problem-solving, and teamwork. Throughout the program, girls will collaborate with women professionals who will help them with their build, share their career journeys, answer questions, and provide guidance.
Returning participants from last year's program are welcome, too! If you attended last year's event, bring your mBot robot with you. While participants may not receive a second robot, you'll have the opportunity to expand your robot's capabilities using a special expansion pack, with support from mentors and volunteers throughout the day.
Whether you're new to robotics or ready to take your skills to the next level, this event is a great opportunity to explore STEAM careers, build confidence, and connect with inspiring women leaders in robotics.
