This course aims to equip students with the skills necessary for success in STEM fields by engaging them in group-based projects and discussions that apply the engineering and scientific methods while developing competencies in problem solving, measurement, technical drawing, aerodynamics, electrical circuits, structural engineering, teamwork, critical thinking, long-term planning, and reflection—ultimately providing an educational experience that mirrors real-world industry practices. .   (This course is paired with Introduction to Aerospace) 

This curriculum centers on robotics as a foundation for developing technological literacy, engaging students in the exploration of how and why robotic systems work and their impact on modern life, while fostering creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration through hands-on projects in electrical, mechanical, and programming systems that inspire students to innovate and apply robotics to real-world fields such as manufacturing, healthcare, defense, agriculture, and transportation. 

This course introduces students to the fundamentals of AutoCAD, emphasizing precision drafting, 2D and 3D design, and the development of essential skills for creating and interpreting technical drawings, while highlighting AutoCAD’s critical role as an industry-standard tool in engineering design, communication, and problem-solving. 

The Engineering Capstone course challenges students to apply their cumulative knowledge of STEM principles to real-world engineering problems through collaborative, project-based learning. Students will design, prototype, and test solutions while refining skills in critical thinking, project management, teamwork, and professional communication, preparing them for future careers in engineering and technology. 

This course introduces students to core computer concepts and programming—including hardware and software fundamentals, networks, the Internet, and the social impacts of technology—while also developing practical skills in leading application software such as Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and web design through intensive hands-on exercises.  This is a dual enrollment course with William Paterson University. 

AP Computer Science Principles provides a multidisciplinary introduction to computation, covering programming, abstractions, algorithms, large data sets, the Internet, cybersecurity, and computing impacts, while preparing students—especially those interested in Computer Science, STEM, or Engineering—to take the AP Computer Science Principles exam in May.

AP Computer Science A introduces students to computer science through Java programming, emphasizing problem-solving, data structures, algorithm development, solution analysis, and the ethical and social implications of computing, while engaging a diverse student population—including female and underrepresented students—by providing challenging yet rewarding opportunities to explore the power of computer science in addressing real-world problems 

In this hands-on course, students will explore the evolution of man’s attempts to conquer the skies.  Projects require students to design, build, and test: parachutes, balloons, paper gliders, balsa gliders, launch gliders, propeller airplanes, and small rockets.  Students will build airfoils and test them in wind tunnels, calculate the four forces of flight, and understand Bernouli’s Principle.  (This course is paired with Fundamentals of Engineering.) 

Students will learn to categorize aircraft, identify their parts, understand construction techniques and materials, analyze the forces of flight and perform related calculations, explore aircraft design including stability, controls, and maneuvering, and study powerplants and fuel systems to understand their impact on design and performance. 

This course introduces students to the scientific, technological, and engineering principles behind space exploration, covering topics such as astronomy, spacecraft design, planetary science, and mission planning, while engaging them in hands-on projects and problem-solving activities that highlight the challenges and innovations of exploring our solar system and beyond. 

The Aerospace Capstone course challenges students to apply advanced principles of aeronautics and astronautics through collaborative, project-based learning, including aircraft and spacecraft design, flight analysis, and systems integration, while developing critical skills in problem-solving, teamwork, and engineering innovation.
