The IEEE City St George’s Robotics Society is a student-led community for anyone passionate about robotics, technology, and innovation. We provide hands-on opportunities for students of all levels to explore robotics through workshops, hackathons, competitions, and industry collaborations.
Bringing together members from City St George’s University of London, we’re proud to be one of the most active and diverse STEM societies on campus. Our community brings together students from engineering, computing, biomedical, and other disciplines, encouraging creativity and teamwork in everything we do.
Each year, we host exciting events such as the Hack-A-Health Hackathon, End of the Line Competition, and RoboWars, along with regular technical workshops, socials, and outreach activities. Our goal is to create an inclusive and inspiring space where students can learn, connect, and bring their ideas to life, while building valuable technical and professional skills for the future.
We hosted the three-day Hack-A-Health Hackathon, where students developed innovative solutions to real-world healthcare challenges.
Partnering with organisations such as Ansys, Le Wagon, Hackathons UK, Code for Life, and Naked Energy, participants took part in workshops, mentorship sessions, and networking opportunities.
The event inspired students to turn ideas into impactful projects aligned with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 3 – Good Health and Well-Being.
Our annual End of the Line competition returned as an inter-university event for the first time, bringing together students from across London to design, build, and program autonomous robots capable of completing complex tracks at high speed. The competition tested creativity, problem-solving, and precision, celebrating innovation and engineering excellence.

This event was a social event in collaboration with the Japanese society with interactive team working activities and games.
These fun games provided a networking opportunity and aimed to bridge gaps and foster a sense of community within and beyond STEM disciplines.
A social event to celebrate the end of exams and to introduce the Micromouse project for the term.
It gave a chance to delve into creative and innovative ideas for the upcoming tournament style battle where cutting-edge robots navigated mazes, competing fiercely to claim the title of the fastest maze-solver.
The IEEE City Robotics Society made history on the 11th of October 2023 by hosting a social event, a celebration in honour of IEEE Day. The vibrant gathering took place in ELG15 from 15:30 to 17:30, promising attendees an afternoon filled with engaging activities, opportunities to make new connections, and the irresistible allure of free food. With an open invitation to everyone, regardless of their academic background, the event aimed to bridge gaps and foster a sense of community within and beyond STEM disciplines.
The success of the IEEE City Robotics Society’s social event on IEEE Day stands as a testament to the power of community, innovation, and inclusivity. As ELG15 echoed with laughter, discussions, and the clinking of plates, it became clear that this event marked the beginning of a new era for the society. With a promising start, the IEEE City Robotics Society is poised to continue fostering a dynamic and welcoming community for technology enthusiasts, ensuring that the spirit of collaboration and celebration persists in future endeavours.
