Some people have some questions as to whether the STEAM acronym was intentionally included and whether it refers to art. While I was looking through the DLC, I found this on the recruitment posters:
Quote:

FIRST® Robotics Competition is the ultimate Sport for the Mind,TM where imagination and innovation come together! By combining the excitement of sport and beauty of art with the rigors of science and technology, teams are challenged to design a team “brand,” hone teamwork skills, and build and program robots to perform tasks against a eld of competitors.

This seems to indicate that FRC is trying to attract and include art more, which means that the A in STEAMWORKS probably refers to art.
