VEX Robotics

Robotics programming and competition practice, comprehensively developing STEM abilities and teamwork

Course Introduction

COURSE INTRODUCTION

The VEX Robotics course brings students into the exciting world of robotics programming and competition. Starting from basic mechanical assembly and block-based programming, the course progressively advances to sensor applications, advanced programming, and competition strategy development. Students learn mechanical design principles, programming thinking, and engineering methodology through hands-on practice, while developing teamwork and problem-solving abilities. Our student teams consistently achieve excellent results in VEX competitions at all levels, and robotics competition experience has become a highlight activity for many students' college applications.
