The field of engineering is typically dominated by men, but thanks to an innovative program young women are realizing their love for engineering early. FIRST Robotics is a competition with the enthusiasm and energy of a college football game. Students have six weeks to design a robot that can complete a number of tasks and this year, I spent the evening talking to with two girls who have big engineering dreams.
In this week’s video blog, I visit Francis Tuttle Technology Center, with one of the most prestigious FIRST Robotics teams, as they begin their journey.
