Hunterdon Central offers its students opportunities to pursue specialized programs that empower them to focus on a particular passion or career area - all while staying at Central! HC offers the following academies through its Magnet Program: Architectural Design, Biomedical Sciences, Computer Science, Engineering, Learners to Leaders (Education), Media & Communications, and Performing Arts. Each academy consists of a cohesive series of three or four courses and includes opportunities for dual enrollment or articulated college credit, an industry-valued credential, or both. Also, there is no application or exam required for entry, just work with your Hunterdon Central counselor to schedule the courses.

Magnet Program students engage in capstone-type experiences, which can include an independent research project, an internship or mentorship experience, and/or an independent student experience such as a college course or a credential.

Academy course descriptions, listed by focus area, appear in the course listings below. If you have any questions about these specialized programs, please contact your counselor or the supervisor.
