Engineering Design & Architecture 1 Honors (9, 10, 11, 12) 1 credit
The first in a series of action-oriented, studentcentered courses that provide an introduction to engineering, architecture, and design. Students will use Autodesk software including Auto CAD, Inventor, and Revit throughout the year creating a wide variety of 2-D, 3-D, isometric and orthographic drawings. Students will also use both traditional tools as well as the 3-D printer and Laser Cutter to design and construct prototypes as well as architectural models. This course is perfect for students with an interest in architecture, design, or engineering.
Engineering Design & Architecture 2 Honors (10, 11, 12) 1 credit
Students will continue to expand their learning in engineering design and Architecture. Students will be given advance projects to replicate real world engineering and architecture problems using the Engineering Design process. Students will have expanded use of the 3-D printer and Laser Cutter to aid in the creation of their designs and prototypes.
Prerequisite: Successful completion of EDA 1.Engineering Design & Architecture 3 Honors (11, 12) 1 credit
At this level students are expected to build upon their skills in the fields of engineering and architecture disciplines. Students will been given a real world problems by the instructor and the goal is for the student to come up with a solution to the problem.
