Introduction to Engineering Technology

 

Course Overview
The goal of this class is to give you an introduction to the concepts and technology that are used in the field of engineering.

Engineering has many different specialties, such as mechanical engineering or civil engineering. In this class, we will look at each of the major disciplines. You will learn about both the theory and the hands-on skills for each discipline.
You also will have the chance to develop skills and safe habits with hand tools and machine tools. There will be several large projects during the year that will give you a chance to practice what you have learned.

This course is a prerequisite for many other technology courses, including Principles of Technology and Electronics.
