Iken Ethiopia Robotics education and competition center was founded in 2011. The institute is a unique platform at promoting and strengthening the development of analytical and problem solving skills in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.
Robotics deals with a branch of technology that helps students to show their own design, engineering and programming skills. Realizing the importance, of hands-on activities for effective science education, by giving the platform for children to utilize their imagination and curiosity and get them to think out of the box
iken Ethiopia robotics education and competition center’s focus on robotics is significant, Robotics education is a great tool for STEM learning. One of the ways students will develop creativity and scientific thinking is through robotics education, because it helps students understand science technology engineering and math in a better way, students should learn by applying scientific principles to real life situations.
iken Ethiopia robotics education and competition center realizes Robotics training is  Effective way of introducing programming to students & the importance working hard on STEM fields through robotics by arranging several competitions for students that can channel competitive instincts in a positive way and help students understand Science Technology Engineering and Math by providing them Educational robots.
The 2018 robotics national final competition winners are the result of this education and competition. They are now qualified to participate in the 2018 VEX robotics competition in USA Louisville Kentucky. A group of students Known as Team Ethiopia will participate in this world stage robotics competition representing their country. Hence, this will create great opportunity for the participating students to share educational and cultural experience with other participants from round the world.
