What’s the Webinar About?
Engineering design is critical to the success of any mission, whether it’s launching rockets or building competition robots. In this webinar, Dr. Denham will share:

  • NASA’s best practices for designing systems that are safe, reliable, and reproducible.
  • Practical examples from NASA missions and how these principles can elevate your team’s robot design.
  • Insights into the challenges of real-world engineering and how to apply problem-solving techniques to robotics.

Bonus Opportunity: Attendees will have the chance to ask Dr. Denham questions—whether about NASA’s exciting missions or your own team’s design practices.

This webinar and the content release were exclusively approved for Team 2531 RoboHawks, and we’re thrilled to share this experience with the broader FIRST community. It’s a rare opportunity to hear directly from a NASA engineer and gain insights you won’t find anywhere else!
