Advanced Robotics at the University of Washington (ARUW) is a student-run competitive robotics team. Engineering and business students come together to build nine robots to compete in the RoboMaster competition, held annually in Shenzhen, China.
ARUW provides its student members with hands-on experience in robotics development, engineering management, and business. Through ARUW, student members learn to use professional grade tools and work in a small team to design, build, and test integrated robotic systems. Student leads learn about engineering and business management, gaining insight into all aspects of the project as a whole including project management, budget management, and recruitment.
