What Is Project Lead the Way (PLTW)? The PLTW Pathway To Engineering (PTE) program is a sequences of courses, which follows a proven hands-on, real-world problem-solving approach to learning. Throughout PTE, students learn and apply the design process, acquire strong teamwork and communication proficiency and develop organizational, critical-thinking, and problem-solving skills. They discover the answers to questions like how things are made and what processes go into creating products? Students use the same industry- leading 3D design software used by companies like Intel, Lockheed Martin and Pixar. Students apply biological and engineering concepts related to biomechanics – think robotics. They design, test and construct devices while working collaboratively on a culminating capstone project. It’s STEM education and it’s at the heart of today’s high-tech, high-skilled global economy.
ES (Bioengineering / Environmental Sustainability) - Students investigate and design solutions for real world challenges related to (1) genetic engineering and food security, (2) renewable energy , and (3) safe drinkable water. The environmental sustainability bioengineering course develops students’ thinking skills and prepares them for emerging careers such as Genetic Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering and Environmental Engineering. Applying their knowledge through hands-on activities and simulations, students research and design potential global solutions to real world challenges. Gr. 10-12 All Year Prerequisite: Biology (may be taken concurrently)
