The Championship
The Uganda National STEM & Robotics Championship is the flagship event of the ASIST calendar — an annual gathering that brings together hundreds of teams, thousands of students and mentors, schools, parents and industry partners from every region of Uganda.
Across two intense days, learners compete in more than a dozen categories spanning robotics, artificial intelligence, science fair, coding, drones and underwater robotics. Winners earn national recognition and a pathway to international competitions.
