Robofest, hosted by Lawrence Technological University in Southfield, MI, is a festival of competitions and events with autonomous robots that encourages students to have fun while learning principles of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) and Computer Science. Students design, construct, and program the robots. Any robotics kits are allowed in the construction of robots. Robots can be programmed with any programming language. Robofest programs support Computer Science for All.

Since 1999, over 31,000 students have competed in Robofest, including teams from 18 United States and the countries of Brazil, Canada, China, Colombia, Ecuador, Egypt, Ethiopia, England, France, Ghana, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Kenya, Lebanon, Macau, Malawi, Mexico, Morocco, Nigeria, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan, and UAE.

Teams compete in the junior (grades 5-8), senior (grades 9-12), and college divisions. For RoboParade, Junior includes 4th grade. Student teams, composed of up to five members each, can participate in a variety of events:

​	Accomplish robotics missions using fully autonomous robots. Robofest Game especially puts math skills to the test.
	Each team has complete freedom to show off any creative computer programmed robotics R&D project.
	High School and College teams create intelligent and interactive medical robotics/device projects.	CLOSED
	Vision Centric Challenge. Advanced category for Sr. high school students	CLOSED
	Be the first robot to push intentionally a bottle off the table OR be the last robot remaining on the table. (Level: beginners)
	A parade of autonomous robotic floats (Level: beginners)
	RoboArts (Formerly GRAF). Robotic Music, Fashion & Dance, Robotic Painting, and Interactive Kinetic Sculptures	CLOSED
