Goodrich – The excitement’s been non-stop for the young Martian robotics engineers who won national acclaim last April.
Since taking first place at the For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST) robotics championship competition in Atlanta, team members and mentors have won first place in the Kettering Kick-off competition, toured the Capitol building in Lansing, met Gov. Jennifer Granholm, mentored younger prospective engineers, demonstrated the robot in the Goodrich homecoming parade, have been featured on the cover of ‘Corp!? magazine, have been awarded full-ride scholarships, and were instrumental in earning FIRST the educational program of the year.
