The Engineering and Architecture sector is a great choice for students who enjoy designing, building, problem-solving, or figuring out how things work. This sector introduces students to careers in architecture, engineering, and environmental design through hands-on learning and real-world projects. Students learn to think creatively and analytically while working with tools, software, and design processes used by professionals. Whether you're interested in drawing building plans, designing machines, or creating sustainable solutions for the future, this pathway helps students build the skills they need for college, technical training, or a high-demand career in STEM.
You can find a list of high schools where each pathway is offered below!
The Architectural Design pathway is perfect for students who enjoy drawing, designing spaces, or thinking about how buildings are made. Students explore how to design homes, schools, and cities using both hand-drawing and computer-aided design (CAD) tools.
Students in the Engineering Technology pathway learn how things work and how to improve everyday systems and machines. This pathway focuses on applying math, science, and technology to solve real-world problems.
The Engineering Design pathway is ideal for students who love innovation, building prototypes, and exploring how things are made. Students learn the engineering design process by researching problems, brainstorming solutions, and creating working models.
