Industry and College Mentors
Inspire students to learn through exploration —
and build the workforce of tomorrow
Our distinguished industry mentors give their time and energy to help students learn: programming, computer aided design, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, writing, graphic design, business planning, presentation, fundraising, and animation skills.
Who are FIRST mentors and coaches? Our team members say it best. A mentor/coach:
Business and Finance
MetalCow is like a small robotics company. Teach students to manage the business aspects of the team, to manage our budget, track parts inventory, and plan for team sustainability.
Design and Manufacturing
What would a robotics team be without a working robot? Mentor students as they design and build the mechanisms for a 120lb aluminum chassis competition robot.
Marketing and Graphic Design
Inspire students through art! Guide students as they create a promo video for our team, update the website, or design a poster for an outreach event.
Coding and Electronics
A robot can't compete without a brain, show students how to breathe life into the robot through teaching them wiring, soldering, and programming skills.
