More than 350 students from all over the state of Alabama will compete in the 2013 Alabama Robotics Competition at the University of Alabama on April 6.
Competing students range in age from third grade students to high school seniors. They’ll all be hoping their robot can take the first place spot in the event hosted by UA College of Engineering’s department of computer science. Jeff Gray, associate professor of computer science, says he hopes this third annual event will spark student’s interest in the field.
