Ellen Green signed up for her high school robotics team because she’s competitive and likes to be involved – not because she was looking for a career.

We support FIRST Robotics—which held its national championship in Detroit in 2018 in the first year of a three-year contract—because it creates interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) fields among Michigan students like Green.
