ABOUT US
OUR START
In July, 2018 Tesla selected the Desert Research Institute to receive Tesla’s Nevada K-12 Education Invesment Funding to support Nevada Robotics. The Nevada Robotics program was born from this initial investment. Two years later, Nevada Gold Mines chose us to partner with as well.
OUR VISION
For all students across Nevada to think creatively and solve complex problems through hands-on robotics education.
OUR MISSION
To collaborate with community and industry partners in delivering engaging robotics education to Nevada’s K – 12 students.
