The World Robot Contest organized by the China Electronics Society is divided into three stages: selection, finals and championship, which involves related competition projects in scientific research, skills and popular science. Since 2015, the competition has been successfully held for 8 times, attracting more than 200,000 contestants from more than 20 countries around the world, and is known as the "Olympics" in the field of robotics

The 2023 World Robot Competition will have four major competitions, namely the Co-Integrated Robot Challenge, the BCI Brain-Controlled Robot Competition, the Robot Application Competition and the Youth Robot Design Competition. Among them, the AIWill Planet Express Challenge is a project of the Youth Robot Design Competition, focusing on robot assembly and graphical programming. New Oriental will fully support its trials in three cities (Beijing, Wuhan and Xiamen). Players who win the selection award will have the opportunity to advance to the annual finals and compete with players from all over the country for the first, second and third place in the finals

As an important part of science and technology education, robot education can cultivate young people's innovative and creative thinking and interdisciplinary knowledge integration capabilities. It can also cultivate their patriotism and responsibility, adding strong impetus to the high-quality development of the robot industry. As a leader in the private education industry, New Oriental has entered the field of children's robot education early. Based on the concept of "learning by doing", they have created a complete curriculum system tailored for children aged 3 to 12 years old, selected high-quality and advanced teaching aids, and recruited outstanding teachers with rich experience. Through the process of hands-on construction, programming, debugging, and operation, students have improved their engineering literacy, information literacy, and comprehensive quality capabilities. Currently, New Oriental has opened robotics courses in 29 cities across the country, trained a large number of outstanding robotics teachers, and led students to win awards in multiple large-scale robotics competitions

In addition to robotics education, New Oriental will continue to delve into the fields of quality education such as programming, science, and art, striving to provide more high-quality educational resources for young people and help students develop into high-quality scientific and technological talents in an all-round way
