NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCIV) — Students from several schools in the Lowcountry showed off their tech skills for possible future engineering and STEM-related jobs.
The students built and programmed robots for the "Eastern Defense Summit" in North Charleston on Dec. 6. Cane Bay, Philip Simmons, and Fort Dorchester high schools and Dubose Middle School took part at this year's showcase.
The showcase was hosted by the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic.
"The opportunity is (the students) get to learn critical thinking and electric skills," said Marcus Schoultz with the NWIC. "They also get to go with NWIC Atlantic. We send different mentors out to each one of the teams."
This is the second year that NWIC hosted the event.
