TEAMS is an annual high school competition challenging students to work collaboratively, applying math and science knowledge in practical, creative ways to solve real engineering problems. Focused on a theme each year, original academic and innovative concepts are developed for the competition based on the National Academy of Engineering’s Grand Challenges. The challenges require job-readiness skills such as teamwork, analytical thinking and multidimensional problem-solving.
