National Robotics Week
National Robotics Week
National Robotics Week is celebrated annually during the first full week of April Initially. The mission is to inspire people interested in robotics and share excitement about the latest innovations. While the celebration cuts across all ages, MassRobotics hosts school groups from middle school thru high school aged students for 2-hour hands-on workshops and robotics challenges.
In 2025 MassRobotics welcomed students from Boston as well as from across the country for hands-on workshops, coding challenges, and the always-popular Robo Soccer. Students explored real-world robotics tech and left inspired and ready to shape the future of STEM.
MassRobotics STEM Sessions for National Robotics Week 2026 are sponsored by Microsoft.
