2023 AFRL Challenge Competition

April 10-14, 2023

Innovare Advancement Center, 592 Hangar Road, Rome NY

The AFRL Challenge Competition is an annual STEM initiative for local high school students. The intent of the competition is to provide a more realistic view into the types of high-tech problems our Nation is facing and how researchers go about dissecting and solving these complex challenges. Participating in this competition provides students a new perspective in the field of engineering, science, and/or math, depending on the problem's origin. There can only be one team from each participating high school; two students, ages 16 years or older, and a one teacher/coach/mentor. The competition is held during Spring Break.

Teams to be announced soon!
