Introduction to Engineering Course


Introduction to Engineering is a new elective opposite choir that focuses on giving the students an introduction to the field of engineering through a series of videos that focus on the basics of engineering, as well as through a computer program that allows you to engineer an object, designing your own engineering project. Mr Ahrenholz, the math teacher, is teaching the class. He says that his goals for the class are “to allow students to explore a career path to engineering, to see if it is something that fits their skills or interests.” He plans to meet this goal by having the students watch the  Duke University Introduction to Engineering seminars, and allowing students to create their own engineering projects in the Solidworks engineering program. Introduction is a new, unique class, and hopefully together, students will begin to grasp this complicated field.
