Principles of Engineering | Concentration

Principles of Engineering is a year-long class where students learn about different careers in engineering, explore various engineering systems, experience how math and science are used in solving engineering problems, and see how new innovations are developed.
Students will also learn about the tools that engineers use to benefit people and societies, and learn how technological change can cause social and political problems. Students will get to design and build models in order to solve basic engineering problems.

Robotics | Concentration

Autodesk's VEX Robotics Curriculum is divided up into twelve primary units and one optional unit. In a flexible format, students learn about engineering and engineering problem solving. They will be given introductions to the VEX Robotics Design System and Autodesk® Inventor® while learning key STEM principles through a process that captures the excitement and engagement of robotics competition. The curriculum is heavily focused on mechatronic principles; as such, programming is NOT required. However this course is structured in such a way that teachers and students who want to include a more Computer Science heavy layer with the course can do so.
