The University of Doha for Science and Technology (UDST), represented by the College of Engineering Technology, organised a robotics competition for its students across all disciplines. The competition aimed at building students skills in innovation and developing effective teamwork through many challenges.

There are multiple educational aspects of this robotics competition and the learning outcomes go far beyond the competition itself. The contest teaches the participating students to think in a critical and creative manner and promotes the spirit of initiative. During the competition, students had to build a robot that can travel a specific tortuous path with two stages of control; autonomous control and mobile Bluetooth control.

The competition saw the participation of 60 students grouped into 20 teams. They produced their models as per the requirements and 8 teams qualified for the final round. The performance criteria were based on the accuracy of travel, speed, and overall look as well as the robustness
