Re: Engineering and Robotics program in danger

Here is another piece of data that has come out recently http://www.atomicrobotics.com/2011/1...reer-interest/

Combine this with things like the Brandeis University Study and you have a good amount of data to show why robotics is a better investment than other projects. http://www.usfirst.org/aboutus/impact

How ever when i talk to other FTC or VEX teams i believe that is where the school can get the biggest bang for their buck, the teams are a 10th of the price and teach many of the same skills.
