University of Baguio to Host North Luzon Leg of Robolution 2026 Robotics and Automation Competition

Robotics Competition Returns to Northern Luzon

Northern Luzon will once again become a hub for robotics and automation as registration officially opens for the 2026 Robolution Regional – Cordillera Administrative Region, scheduled on September 2 to 4, 2026, at the University of Baguio.

The regional event forms part of the 5th National/International Robolution 2026: Robotics and Automation Competition, a nationwide initiative that brings together young innovators, educators, and robotics enthusiasts to develop technical skills and showcase innovation through robotics competitions, workshops, and learning activities.

According to DepEd Advisory No. 036, s. 2026, the regional competitions will be held across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, with the University of Baguio serving as the host venue for the North Luzon leg before qualifying participants advance to the national competition scheduled on December 5 to 6, 2026.

A Platform for Future Engineers and Innovators

Organized by the Erovoutika International Robotics Academy in partnership with schools and universities, Robolution aims to inspire learners to explore robotics, automation, programming, and engineering through experiential learning.

Beyond the competition itself, participants will have access to seminars, workshops, and hands-on activities that expose them to emerging technologies and practical engineering concepts.

The event is open primarily to elementary and secondary school learners, together with their teachers from both public and private schools.

Registered participants will also receive free training, while professional teachers who participate may earn 4.0 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points, providing additional value for educators supporting STEM education.

Strengthening STEM Education Through Competition

Robotics competitions provide students with opportunities to apply classroom learning to real-world challenges.

By combining engineering, programming, electronics, teamwork, and problem-solving, robotics develops skills that are increasingly important in today’s technology-driven economy.

Events like Robolution encourage students to think critically, design practical solutions, and collaborate under real project conditions while building confidence in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

For educators, these programs also serve as platforms for learning new teaching approaches that integrate innovation and technology into the classroom.
