Acquisition of transversal skills in university studies through participation in robotics competitions

The development of a robotics project, in which students and teachers from different areas of knowledge participate, is an opportunity to develop transversal skills in university studies. When this project is motivated by participation in an international robotics contest, such as EUROBOT, the motivation of students is greater. This article presents the organization of the teaching innovation project in which the activity is framed, as well as the successful results after two years of implementation.
