CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION (CTE)
Engineering & Design Industry

School Year: 2024-2025  /  Number of Courses: 6

Department Overview

Standards, which are aligned to the Common Core State Standards. Instruction reinforces core skills in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and mathematics. Course instruction emphasizes career ready practices in communication, ethics, interpersonal/team skills, critical thinking and problem solving, safety, technology, and employability skills.

All CTE courses offered through the North Orange County Occupational Program (NOCROP) program have been assigned a course code number, a major course title or abbreviation, and a three character room number designation which will identify the location of the student's placement. This system has been coordinated with the Anaheim Union High School District's Information Systems Department, and is used by all senior high schools when students are scheduled in selected ROP areas of instruction.

 


CE138F ENGINEERING 1
9th - 12th
5.0 semester credits
Recommendation: None.
UC - "G" Approved

The purpose of this course is to provide students with introductory skills in engineering design, electronics and programming. This course meets the "G" requirement for UC A-G.



CE138S ENGINEERING 1
9th - 12th
5.0 semester credits
Recommendation: None.
UC - "G" Approved

The purpose of this course is to provide students with introductory skills in engineering design, electronics and programming. This course meets the "G" requirement for UC A-G.



CE238F ENGINEERING 2
9th - 12th
5.0 semester credits
Recommendation: None.
UC - "G" Approved

The objective of this course is to build on the skills developed within the Engineering 1 course with students taking on more personal responsibility for project development and management. Skills developed during the year 1 course will be broadened and deepened. Student learning outcomes are intended to include: coding experience (i.e. c++ and/or python), CAD experience (with potential for industry certification), project management experience and product design experience.

CE337F AEROSPACE ENGINEERING PLTW
11th - 12th
5.0 semester credits
Recommendation: None.
UC - "D" Approved

Students explore fundamentals of flight in air and space through software simulations and hands-on experiences. Students learn how these concepts apply to a career in aerospace engineering and to other engineering fields. The course deepens the skills and knowledge of an engineering student within the context of atmospheric and space flight. Students explore the fundamentals of flight in air and space as they bring the concepts to life by designing and testing components related to flight such as an airfoil, propulsion system, and a rocket. They learn orbital mechanics concepts and apply these by creating models using industry-standard software. They also apply aerospace concepts to alternative applications such as a wind turbine and parachute. Students simulate a progression of operations to explore a planet, including creating a map of the terrain with a model satellite and using the map to execute a mission using an autonomous robot.
