Engineering Technology Advanced                                                                                                                  

Grades 11-12 

UC/CSU - G elective approved course

Prerequisite: Completion of Engineering Technology 

Advanced Engineering Technology is a project-driven course allowing the students time to focus on topics covered in the Introductory Engineering Technology course. Students work in teams to develop and implement various projects such as Photogrammetry, e-Bike Development, Machining techniques for prototyping, Advanced Robotics, Welding and Metalwork, and 3-D Printing. The students refine their CAD skills using CAD to develop models for their prototypes. Students participate in an Industry Day where they present their e-Portfolios to industry professionals and participate in mock interviews and poster presentations. Advanced Engineering is a course for students interested in developing skills to join a trades apprenticeship program or a university campus.
