The Robotics Academy is a frontrunner in CS-STEM Education Research. Below is a list of different research projects which have led to the development of many of our curricula and technologies:
The Robotics Academy hosts robotics competitions, provides training, organizes conferences, and conducts research on how to use robotics to teach CS-STEM concepts. Click here to view some of the partners that we have worked with.
Carnegie Mellon’s Robotic Academy staff and development team are housed in the National Robotics Engineering Center (NREC), where robots for business, government, and industry are designed, prototyped, and tested just outside our office doors. The NREC is part of the Carnegie Mellon University - Robotics Institute, a world-renowned robotics organization.
