National Junior Robotics
Competition
The National Junior Robotics Competition (NJRC) is an exciting and unique event organised annually by Science Centre Singapore and the Agency for Science Technology and Research (A*STAR). This robotics competition encourages students to develop problem solving skills, entrepreneurial skills, creative thinking skills and team spirit among the participants.
Over the past 10 years, more than 30,000 participants and 200,000 supporters have gathered for this premier robotics competition. It has gone a long way since its first year in 1999 with only 167 teams and 70 schools.
The NJRC is an excellent opportunity for students to interact with their peers, teachers and judges, the latter coming from tertiary institutions, research institutions and experts from various industries. The NJRC is about celebrating the process of learning through interactive, meaningful experiences.
The finals for the last NJRC took place on 11 November 2010 where teams went against each other to compete for the top prize, The Championship Award. Congratulations to all the teams that won. Click here for a list of the winners.
