Genel Bilgiler
Welcome to the first VEX V5 High School Competition at UT Austin!
This competition will be hosted at the Texas Union Ballroom at UT Austin by the VEXU Team GHOST and UT IEEE RAS. We are proud to do this in conjunction with The University of Texas at Austin and the robotics research organization Texas Robotics. We plan on organizing with the university campus tours and a tour of the university robotics research space.
Other robotics clubs at UT Austin will also be there to help volunteer and show the amazing things that UT Austin STEM has to offer! Additionally, we will be holding some side contests at this competition, including a costume contest in the spirit of Halloween!

The beautiful Shirley Bird Perry Ballroom at the UT Student Union.

Equipment Drop-off
The equipment drop-off is at the back of the Student Union. From Guadalupe, turn east onto 24th Street then south on Whitis, where you will find a set of accessibility parking spots. This is the drop-off zone, and the closest accessibility spots if you need them. Walk your gear west between Hogg Auditorium and the Flawn Center toward the Student Union. You will find stairs going up to the ballroom level and a ramp down to the lower level. On entering the lower level there are elevators down the hall to both the left and right.
