Lunabotics 2027 - FAQ

  1. Q: Where do we submit our deliverables? (9/30/26)
    A: All deliverables go through the online submission system. A link to the submission form will be posted at amfcse.org/lunabotics. The system will be available by the deadline.

  2. Q: Can we email our documents for submission or a pre-review? (9/30/26)
    A: No. Emails are not accepted for submissions or pre-reviews. Because so many teams are submitting, everything is managed through the submission system.

  3. Q: Is there a template for the Institution and Faculty Statements of Support? (9/30/26)
    A: No template is required for either letter. Both must be on university letterhead.

  4. Q: Are the STEM Engagement Report, STEM Industry Plan, or Presentation & Demonstration (P&D) required this year? (9/30/26)
    A: No, none of them is required.

  5. Q: How do we find out if any other deliverables have changed? (9/30/26)
    A: Each team is responsible for reading the requirements in the Guidebook and following them.

  6. Q: Can one institution enter more than one team? (9/30/26)
    A: Yes, an institution may enter more than one team. However, multiple teams may not share common team members, nor designs.

  7. Q: Can two schools collaborate on one team? (9/30/26)
    A: Yes, if the two schools formally apply as a single team. That team gets one competition slot, like every other team.

  8. Q: Can graduating seniors compete if they graduate before the competition? (9/30/26)
    A: Yes. Section 4.2.2 will be reworded so team members must be "enrolled during the current semester or the semester prior to the competition." This covers schools with early commencements.
