Who Are We?

1. The HyperLabs at VCU team is a robotics student org that organizes and runs hands-on workshops to teach students practical robotics & engineering skills. All majors & skill levels are welcome to join!

2. Our Vertically Integrated Project(VIP) Team acts as our research and competing branch. This is a hands-on experience and learning research-based class that gives you a VCU credit to help us go to competitions and conferences!

3. We are a team of students from the disciplines of engineering, business, humanities & science, medical, arts, and more.

3. We encourage our members to collaborate with students from various backgrounds and disciplines to broaden their skills and expertise in engineering concepts, product design, communication, teamwork, and project execution. By doing so, they can better align with and contribute to our club's overarching goals and vision.
