Prerequisite(s): Completion of Principles of Engineering Open to Grades: 11, 12
or Robotics Engineering
Career Cluster(s): Architecture and Construction Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
Information Technology
Description: Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) is the study of manufacturing planning, integration, and
implementation of automation. This course explores manufacturing history, individual processes, systems, and careers.
In addition to technical concepts, the course incorporates finance, ethics, and engineering design. This reflects an
integrated approach that leading manufacturers have adopted to improve safety, quality, and efficiency. Students will
analyze, design, and build manufacturing systems. While implementing these designs, students will continually hone
their interpersonal skills, creative abilities, and understanding of the design process. Students apply knowledge gained
throughout the course in a final open-ended problem to build a manufacturing system.

Engineering Design & Development
(EDD)

Course Number: 108826 Term(s) Offered: Full Year
Prerequisite(s): Completion of the following courses with Open to Grades: 11, 12
a 70% or higher; PLTW IED, POE, and
CIM or CAD, Robotics, and Advanced
Robotics.
Career Cluster(s): Manufacturing Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
Marketing
Description: Utilizing the activity-project-problem-based (APPB) teaching and learning model, students will perform
research to choose, validate, and justify a technical problem. After carefully defining the problem, teams of students will
design, build, and test their solution. Finally, student teams will present and defend their original solution to an outside
panel. While progressing through the engineering design process, students will work closely with experts and will
continually hone their organizational, communication and interpersonal skills, their creative and problem-solving
abilities, and their understanding of the design process.
