The Engineering Foundations program of study focuses on the design, development, and use of engines, machines, and structures. CTE learners will learn how to apply science, mathematical methods, and empirical evidence to the innovation, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of different manufacturing systems. See complete program of study below.
Industry-Based Certifications Offered at LHS:
Auto Desk Fusion 360 Certification
Engineering Essentials
Pre-Requisite: None
PEIMS#: N1303760 Credit: 1
Students will transfer academic skills to component designs in a project-based environment through implementation of the design process. Students will build prototypes or use simulation software to test their designs. Additionally, students will explore career opportunities, employer expectations and education needs in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) fields.
Introduction to Engineering Design (Advanced)
Pre-Requisite: Algebra I, Principles of Applied Engineering
PEIMS#: N1303742 Credit: 1
In this introductory engineering class, students dig deep into the engineering design process, applying math, science, and engineering standards to hands-on-projects. They work both individually and in teams to design solutions to a variety of problems using 3D modeling software and use an engineering notebook to document their work.
Advanced Engineering Science (formerly Principles of Engineering)
Pre-Requisite: Intro to Engineering Design, Geometry, Physics or concurrent with Physics
PEIMS#: 13037500 Credit: 1
This is an engineering course designed to expose students to some of the major concepts and technologies that they will encounter in a postsecondary program of study in any engineering domain. Student will have the opportunity to investigate engineering and high-tech careers. Students will employ science, technology, engineering and math concepts in the solution of real-world challenge situations. Students will learn how to document their work and communicate their solutions to their peers and members of the professional community.
Environmental Sustainability (Advanced)
Pre-Requisite: Algebra II, Physics, Principles of Engineering
PEIMS#: N1303746 Credit: 1
In this course, students investigate and design solutions in response to real-world challenges related to clean and abundant drinking water, food supply issues, and renewable energy. Applying their knowledge through hands-on activities and simulations, students will research and design potential solutions to these true-to-life challenges.
