Learn about robots over the summer

Kids, getting bored with summer vacation already? SolidWorks Robotics University (SRU) may be just the antidote.
 
A stimulating alternative to bumming around and playing video games, SRU is a free, online, independent study robotics academy for prospective, beginning, and experienced robotics enthusiasts. More than 1,400 middle school, high school, and college students pre-registered for the academy by mid-May, accepting early admission invitations online. Many are competitors in BattleBots®, FIRST®, the MATE International ROV Competition, Trinity College Fire-Fighting Home Robot Contest, RoboCup®, or BattleCry@WPI robotics contests.
