Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) is looking for teams of high-schoolers in public, private and governor\u2019s schools from Richmond to Stafford and throughout the Northern Neck to compete. The deadline is \u00a0Jan. 6, 2023, for signing up to participate in the competition, which will be held March 31 to April 1, 2023, at the University of Mary Washington (UMW) Dahlgren Campus.<\/p>\n

NSWCDD, UMW, MITRE Corporation and the Fredericksburg Regional Military Affairs Council are teaming up to provide this STEM \u2013 science, technology, engineering and math \u2013 opportunity to area students. The Innovation Challenge @ Dahlgren aims to put a spotlight on the need for integrating more STEM learning into the classroom and presenting these types of programs in the Fredericksburg region and beyond.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to join our partners in hosting the second annual Innovation Challenge @ Dahlgren. Inviting students to explore the world of STEM is our priority,\u201d said NSWCDD Chief Technology Officer Jennifer Clift. \u201cThey are our future leaders in everything from software development to artificial intelligence.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two-day competition challenges high-schoolers to establish communication with a tiny robot on wheels, program it to maneuver a mat \u2013 navigating through the \u201csea\u201d and around \u201cland masses\u201d \u2013 then detect, acquire and act on a target. Winners will split an expected cash prize.<\/p>\n

\u201cUMW\u2019s Dahlgren Campus is thrilled to partner with NSWCDD on these innovation challenges for high school students in the region focused on robotics and coding,\u201d said Mary Washington President Troy Paino. \u201cWe look forward to what students create and code next and to continuing this powerful collaboration.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first high school challenge took place in April 2022 and featured 12 public, private and governor\u2019s schools. Fredericksburg Christian School took top honors, followed by Lancaster High School in second place and Bridging Communities Governor\u2019s School in third.
