Principles of Applied Engineering and Robotics

Course description

Principles of Applied Engineering engages students in hands-on, project-based learning that applies science, technology, engineering, and mathematics concepts to authentic challenges. Students use the engineering design process to investigate problems, develop solutions, build and test prototypes, and refine their designs. Throughout the course, students explore topics such as engineering systems, energy and power, manufacturing, robotics, automation, programming, and emerging technologies while designing, building, and programming robotic and automated systems. Students develop critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving skills as they work through real-world challenges and gain exposure to a variety of STEM-related career pathways. The course emphasizes innovation, teamwork, and the application of technology to meet the needs of an ever-changing world.
