Robotics and Automation - Students explore ways robots are used in today's world and their impact on society and the environment.  Students learn about a variety of robotic components as they build and test mobile robots that are controlled remotely.

Infection:  Detection - Students explore transmisssion of infection, agents of disease, and mechanisms the body uses to stay healthy.  Through a simulation, they compare communicable and non-communicable diseases.

Earth's Water and Interconnected Systems - Students learn about Earth's systems:  the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere and biosphere. Students examine how these systems interact and examine the role of gravity within each system.

Ecosystems:  Flow of Matter and Energy - Students learn about Earth's ecosystems and how energy flows from the Sun to plants, and from plants to animals.  Students create a model to describe photosynthesis and explain how energy from the Sun is introduced into an ecosystem.  

Energy and the Environment -  In EE, students are challenged to think big and look toward the future as they explore sustainable solutions to our energy needs and investigate the impact of energy on our lives and the world.  They design and model alternative energy sources and evaluate options for reducing energy consumption.

Flight & Space - The exciting world of aerospace comes alive through the Flight and Space (FS) unit.  Students become engineers as they design, prototype, and test models to learn about the science of flight and what it takes to travel and live in space.
