As soon as the winter comes around, both Bronx Science robotics teams enthusiastically immerse themselves in their venture to build a new robot. All robotics students look forward to the start of their building phase which starts in January. Robotics is a huge family, and they help each other out any way they can. Each team works tirelessly for one to two months, perfecting their creation. They first design the robot, then construct it using machines found in the shop. Another important aspect of the team is  programming the robot to move and do other helpful actions. At the end of build phase, each team takes their robot to compete in a FRC tournament. Last year, both the Fe Maidens and the Sciborgs qualified to compete in the world championships hosted in Detroit.
