Hear From Our Sponsors & Supporters
“We loved working with Team 537 during the 2018 referendum to bring an entirely new Applied Engineering and Technology Program to Hamilton High School.
So much, in fact, that when we sponsored Season 8 of Make48, we wanted the robotics students to be on our team. Hamilton tried giving us some other students, and we said 'No, we want Team 537 kids'. They're truly in a league of their own!”
Colleen Wischnewski

“MSOE has a close relationship with Charger Robotics. We sponsor their team (and several others in the area), and offer scholarship and mentorship opportunities to students involved in FIRST programs. I think we get 3 or 4 of their graduating seniors each year, and it was great to see their head coach and several mentors are MSOE alumni!”
Leah Badke
Admissions Counselor
Milwaukee School of Engineering
“We've supported Team 537 for a number of years now, and we love having them at our company events. We've had a few of their members join our team as CNC Operators, and they seem to pick up on things faster than others.”

“GE Healthcare has partnered with Charger Robotics since 2000. Team 537 was instrumental in helping us develop our associates into better mentors, and was critical in starting over 20 other teams in the area. It's brought a lot of positive attention to our company, and I love hiring Charger Robotics alumni into our engineering and internship programs.”
