Degrees of Freedom is a high school robotics team that competes in the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) program. While this program meets and competes year-round, the main build season is January - April, with key competitions held in March and April. Students for Degrees of Freedom do not need any experience with robotics and the range of skills we teach is wide: electronics / electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer aided design, manufacturing, programming, project management, teamwork, conflict resolution, problem solving, leadership, public speaking, social media, budgeting, fundraising, community involvement / outreach, and many more. The time commitment is about 6-10 hours each week, potentially more in the winter months leading up to the 2 regional competitions in March. Team meetings are after-school hours and on weekends.
