On March 03, 2026, WSU will host the 24th annual Shocker MINDSTORMS Challenge. Around
300 students in grades 3-8 will participate. The MINDSTORMS Challenge requires planning,
teamwork, building, and programming skills. For many students, it is their first visit
to the WSU campus and a determining factor in their pursuit of STEM careers.
Sponsors for the 2026 Shocker MINDSTORMS Challenge are GKN Aerospace, Pfizer, Evergy
, Spirit aerosystems, and WSU College of Engineering. All three companies were constantly
supporting us for the past four years.
