Clubs and Teams

Robotics Team

Last year, the Griffitrons won the “Engineering Design Award,” which judges give at their discretion to teams with  designs that “blow the mind.”

Members of the Griffitrons start their work for the spring competition the summer prior. They work on five committees:

  1. Business: This team keeps track of the budget and expenditures
  2. Manufacturing: This team builds the physical robot
  3. Media: In charge of promotion and sponsorships
  4. CAD (Computer Aided Design): Designs the robot functionality
  5. Programming: Works on the coding for the robot
