MANUFACTURING, ENGINEERING, AND TECHNOLOGY - PRODUCTION ENGINEERING

This program is open to tenth and eleventh grade students, but priority is given to those applying to start this program in eleventh grade.

Courses

REQUIRED COURSE: MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY 1 – 170303 


This course offers students the opportunity to explore the major content areas defined by key manufacturing organizations and industries. Students will investigate numerous competencies or tasks related to the following critical areas in manufacturing machining techniques and processes, design, quality control, automation/robotics, materials handling, manufacturing processes, electricity/electronics, mechanical systems, and fluid systems. During this course, students will be involved in classroom instruction, laboratory applications, field trip events, guest speakers, and dynamic software applications as part of their instruction.

REQUIRED:  MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY 2 – 170313 

During the second year of this program, students will again be challenged with more rigorous applications of the foundation skills identified in Course 1. Students will organize full production companies and engage in comprehensive product research, marketing, design, production planning, production implementation, quality control, and full automation using a Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) cell. This approach will reflect actual industry methods. Students will assume both management and labor roles to ensure a comprehensive investigation of all career pathways in production, product engineering, and quality control. Several small-scale production activities will lead to a capstone event showcasing the full range of knowledge and skills developed by all students in this two-year program. In addition, during the second semester, students may seek internships with a local manufacturing business.

Courses

REQUIRED COURSE: ENGINEERING 1 – 177403 

This course is designed for students who are interested in using their knowledge of mathematics, technology and sciences to benefit mankind. This course will introduce them to the work of engineering. Students will become familiar with and utilize the engineering design process to solve real-world, technical problems. Experiences with a wide variety of tools, machines, materials, and unique processes will enable students to gain a broad base of knowledge and skills. Computer Aided Drafting and 3-D modeling will be infused in many of the projects throughout the year. A strong emphasis on career exploration will also be part of this course. 

REQUIRED COURSE: ENGINEERING 2 – 177533 

Year two of the course will continue to expand the students’ knowledge and practical application of skills learned during the first year of engineering. Class projects will focus on multiple fields of engineering, including electrical, civil, mechanical, and chemical engineering. Students will expand their knowledge of computer-aided drafting, 3D modeling, and prototyping, as well as team-focused challenges. Students will also be immersed in researching engineering-related occupations and post-secondary opportunities.
