Proud sponsor of the 2023 FIRST Championship
FIRST – For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology – is a national organization that has a mission to inspire young people’s interest and participation in science and technology. Founded in 1989, the organization designs mentor-based research and robotics programs that help to build skills in the science, technology, engineering, and math disciplines.
BAE Systems, Inc. is proud to partner with
FIRST because we know that the hands-on experiences and life skills that students gain through
FIRST – including collaboration, critical thinking, communication, creativity and confidence – are necessary for our country, our communities, and even our own future workforce worldwide.
We encourage you to learn more about
FIRST, including how you or your school may start your own
FIRST Team. It’s a great way to support STEM education, in your area and worldwide, while also experiencing “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.” Visit
