Our Divisions
Montclair Robotics has 4 engineering divisions and 1 non-engineering division. They work together to build the robot, host fundraisers, and do community outreach promoting STEM. Every member of the team is a part of one or more divisions. Divisions allow our members to specialize in a certain area of the team that they’re interested in. Our veteran team members help to train our new members every year no matter their skill and experience level.
