The STEM Robot Challenge takes place periodically in the third quarter of each year, to create a playground for science, technology and creative skills, for students of all ages in Ho Chi Minh City.
The contest also aims to encourage the spirit of learning and discovery, so that students can gradually master science and technology; helping them have the opportunity to develop creative thinking, use algorithms and technological knowledge to solve problems, improve their ability to handle situations and find optimal solutions.
At the same time, the contest promotes the movement of learning, applying science and technology to practice, and developing young science and technology human resources.
It is expected that the Organizing Committee of the contest will award one first-place prize, two second-place prizes, three third-place prizes, four fourth-place prizes, and ten sub-prizes.
