Rob&IA at the 2026 FANUC Olympics

Students from the University Institute of Technology in Béziers qualify for the FANUC Robotics Olympiad finals

Second-year students enrolled in the professional bachelor's degree program in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (RobB&IA) at the University Institute of Technology (IUT) in Béziers have been selected to participate in the finals of the FANUC Robotics Olympiad. This national competition is a benchmark in the fields of industrial robotics and automation.

The final will be held on March 11 and 12 in Lisses, Essonne, at the FANUC France site. On this occasion, the finalist teams, from higher education institutions across the country, will be assessed through technical tests focusing in particular on the programming, integration, and control of industrial robots.

This accreditation is a first for the Béziers University Institute of Technology. It reflects national recognition of the work carried out within the professional bachelor's degree program in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, as well as the commitment of the students enrolled in this program.

The Béziers University Institute of Technology and the RobB&IA professional degree program will be represented by a team of four students named Thomas, Jordan, Kylian, and Dorian.

Beyond the competitive aspect, this participation is part of an educational approach consistent with the objectives of the program, which focuses on contemporary industrial technologies and the expectations of the professional sector. It also contributes to the reputation of the professional bachelor's degree in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence and, more broadly, of the Béziers University Institute of Technology within the robotics and industrial automation networks.
