SKILLS EMPLOYERS WILL PAY FOR BY 2030

AI PROMPTING

🔬APPLIED PHYSICS

⚙️LEAN ENGINEERING

🎯RESOURCE EFFICIENCY

🚀 RAPID PROTOTYPING

PILLAR 01

AI Skill

Prompt Engineering

Master the syntax of intelligence. Students use Generative AI to solve tactical missions — proving the prompt is as mighty as the wrench.

PILLAR 02

Applied Science

Theory Meets the Floor

Real-world application of kinetic physics, torque, and stability. We value quantitative results over guesses. Prove your mastery of mechanical resistance: in this arena, "how slow" is the new fast.

PILLAR 03

Tactical Engineering

& Entrepreneurship

Maximize output with minimal resources. Points awarded for optimization — excess materials in Slow Moving Ball & Marksmanship mean deductions. Implement Lean Resource Management and ensure Mechanical Fail-safes with a Low-Cost, High-Impact mindset.

PILLAR 04

Maker Skills

The Art of the Build

The art of the build. 3D Printing, Precision Soldering, and Rapid Prototyping — the ability to iterate and fix a hardware failure in the heat of competition.
