Engineering

Introduction to Engineering – Project Lead The Way (Grades 9-12)  This course introduces students to the design process and the tools used in product development. Students will experience first‐hand the activities in  which engineers engage throughout the design cycle. Development of design briefs, sketching, 3D solid modeling, and prototyping through computer‐ aided drafting are part of the course. Students will have the opportunity to learn ways in which design techniques apply to many fields, such as  healthcare, business, art and animation, manufacturing, engineering, etc. Problem‐solving and math as it applies to producing products and services  for today’s society are emphasized. (Dual/transcripted credit is offered by Milwaukee School of Engineering [MSOE] with transfer possibilities to other  colleges and universities.)

Principles of Engineering – Project Lead The Way- ES (Grades 10-12)  Students will experience engineering and design technology and use various technological systems and manufacturing processes that demonstrate  ways in which engineers and technicians use math, science and technology to benefit people. This course will be a mix of hands‐on and academic  activities including computer aided design projects, research activities, case studies, team product development, and discussions on the social and  political consequences of technological change. (Dual/transcripted credit is offered by Milwaukee School of Engineering [MSOE] with transfer  possibilities to other colleges and universities.) 

Digital Electronics - Project Lead The Way-EM  (Grades 10-12)   Digital electronics and micro‐computers. This is a course in applied logic that encompasses the application of electronic circuits and devices. Computer  simulation software is used to design and test digital circuitry prior to the actual construction of circuits and devices. (Dual/transcripted credit is offered  by Milwaukee School of Engineering [MSOE] with transfer possibilities to other colleges and universities.) This course may be used to meet the third  credit of math graduation requirement.
