Meritus Centre for Creativity and Innovation is inviting schools ot take part in the Future Engineers category of the well-renowned World Robotics Olympiad.
Schools are invited to enter a team of three students to participate in this competition. Participating teams need to create, design and build a robot model that look or behave like a human athlete. The competition starts from preliminary to the final judging.
Advanced Robotics, WRO Football, Regular Senior High, Open & WeDo Categories shall be held directly at national championship. Hence, no regional level competition will be held for these category.
3 key challenges of WRO Competition
1. Intense competition - student teams from 100+ countries take part
2. Future Engineers challenge is rigorous & complex
3. Calling for immense hard work and preparation
