Welcome to the Introduction to Engineering elective! In this exciting elective, students will participate in an interactive overview describing the various types of engineering. Students will have the opportunity to select engineering fields of interest and complete hands-on, inquiry-based investigations. The use of science notebooking and mathematics is extensively integrated throughout the elective. Please make sure that your child brings the following supplies every day: science notebook and pencil. From DNA extraction from strawberries to aerospace design, students will gain a fundamental understanding of engineering principles that will spark a lifetime love of science.
