STEM Genius Teams

Why Participate in Competition?

Participating in robotics competitions offers students a multifaceted platform for holistic learning and skill development. These events provide hands-on experience in STEM disciplines, fostering practical application of theoretical knowledge in a real-world context. Students engage in problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork as they design, build, and program robots, honing their technical abilities.

What can we offer?

STEM Genius offer specialized training and resources specifically tailored to excel in competitions. Students gain a deeper understanding of advanced coding techniques, complex algorithms, and efficient programming, which are essential for creating competitive and innovative robotic designs. They receive mentorship from experienced instructors and have access to state-of-the-art facilities, which enables them to push the boundaries of their projects. Overall, involvement in these competitions equips students with a diverse skill set and a passion for learning that extends far beyond the competition itself.

Here is a list of robotics and coding competitions in Singapore.
