ABSTRACT:
An initiative to transform knowledge into experience
An engineer's education extends beyond the classroom. While theoretical content is fundamental, it is through practice that students develop the essential competencies needed to operate in an increasingly dynamic, technological, and collaborative job market.
With this perspective in mind, the University of Rio Verde (UniRV) created the Robotics Extension Project, an initiative aimed at the practical training of students through the integration of teaching, research, and extension activities. The project was designed to provide an active learning environment where participants could develop knowledge in robotics, programming, electronics, and automation, while simultaneously strengthening skills such as leadership, communication, creativity, and teamwork.
Carried out during the first semester of 2026, the project brought together 48 students from the Software Engineering and Mechanical Engineering programs, who participated in weekly meetings dedicated to practical activities using educational robotics platforms.
More than just teaching technology, the project sought to spark students' interest in innovation, problem-solving, and the development of solutions capable of generating a positive impact on society. Figure 1 illustrates the moment that marked the beginning of the Robotics Extension Project. The first meeting, held in partnership with SENAI, was dedicated to welcoming the students, presenting the project proposal, and aligning the activities to be carried out throughout the semester.
