Every year EE 234 (Microprocessor Systems) taught by Andy O'Fallon has a robot competition as the students' final project.  The class curriculum consists of microprocessor system architecture, instruction sets, and interfacing, as well as assembly language programming.  The competition, their final project, challenges each student to create a unique robot with what they have learned that they can race against the other robots created by each student.  (2009 competition pictures below)
