CNC Machining I & II
CNC I: This course provides an introduction to Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining processes and the technology that supports them. Some of the processes covered are gauging, quality control, spot drilling, drilling, reaming, tapping, counter-boring, countersinking, defining and calculating speed and feed rates, screw thread identification, and drill sharpening. Students will perform these processes on manual equipment prior to observing them on CNC equipment. Occupational computer skills are also covered in this course. This course is dual credit with Carl Sandburg College.
CNC II: This course provides more in-dept skill development in various types of precision tool operation, especially using mills, lathes and surface grinders to perform machining tasks. Students will also explore the use of computer and numerical controlled machining in the lab. Students will receive college credit from CSC in addition to high school credit.
Engineering Design: This course students will learn the Engineering scope, content and professional practice are presented through practical applications. Students in engineering teams apply technology, science and mathematics concepts and skills to solve engineering design problems and create innovative designs. Students will research, develop, test and analyze engineering designs using criteria such as design effectiveness, public safety, human factors, and ethics. This course is the capstone experience for students who are interested in Technology, Innovation, Design, and Engineering.

Electrical Trades I & II
Electrical Trades I: This course is designed to foster awareness and understanding in electronic fields. AC and DC circuit concepts are taught through experimentation. COurse work includes units on passive and active electrical devices as well as relationships between inductance, capacitance, and reactance. Series and parallel RC and RL circuit analysis will be presented. Students will use meters and oscilloscopes. Computers will be used to draw circuits and aid students in learning. This is a semester long course that has both a class and lab portion.
Electrical Trades II: This class must be taken concurrently. This course is designed to learn electrical theory, circuit design and operation, the national electrical code, blueprint reading, construction blueprint interpretation and test equipment usage. Students will plan and organize wiring tasks and gain practical experience by wiring mock-ups and trainers. Students will become familiar with tools, materials and methods used in residential wiring. Students will troubleshoot circuits for faulty operations and make repairs. Specific studies include AC and DC theory, series and parallel circuits motor and generator theory, motor controls, lighting and appliance wiring, low voltage wiring and testing and repair. This course is offered as a dual credit course with Carl Sandburg College. Students must complete CSC enrolment requirements to enroll. This class is a semester long that has both a class and lab portion.
