COURSE: Computer-Aided Design and Engineering Technologies (CADET) · STEM

GRADE LEVEL: 10, 11, 12

LENGTH: One or two years

SCHOOL: Roosevelt

CREDIT: Level I – Manufacturing Operations, 1.5; Manufacturing Design, 1.5; Advanced or CP English, 1

CREDIT: Level II –Machine Tools, 1.5; Mills and Lathes, 1; Capstone 1. Optional Advanced or CP English

Redefine what is possible through CAD & Engineering Technologies! Students will use the latest industry
standard software and equipment to produce working drawings, 3D solid model designs, parts and assemblies.
Additionally, students will have the opportunity to program and operate CNC machines (router, lathe, mill and
water jet) to produce manufactured products using wood, metal, and plastic. Students will also operate rapid
prototype machines (3D printer) and laser engraver in fabricating various engineered and designed products.
Manufacturing welding processes and industries will be explored. This exciting, professional College Tech Prep
offering is designed to prepare students for careers in the engineering, advanced manufacturing and
architectural career fields. Students will network with industry experts and partners in high demand career
fields. Senior level internships/industry placement opportunities are available to qualified students. Advanced
technologies, coupled with the need to update and improve manufacturing facilities and product design,
should fuel the demand for professionals in computer-aided manufacturing, architecture, and engineering
technologies. According to the latest data 7,400 jobs within a 100-mile radius of Akron, Ohio currently exist.
Upon successful completion of the program, students will be eligible to earn up to 3 college credits (CTAG) to
any Ohio public university for Computer Aided Drafting and Design in an Engineering Technology program. For
more information, see the Compact Career Catalog 2019-20.

COURSE: Construction Technologies

GRADE LEVEL: 10, 11, 12

LENGTH: Two years

SCHOOL: Roosevelt

CREDIT: Level I – Advanced or CP English, 1; Construction Safety, 1.5; Construction Technology, 1.5

Level II – Structural Systems, 1.5; Structural Covering and Finish, 1.5; Construction Capstone,

1. Optional Advanced or CP English 12.

In Level I, students are introduced to many aspects of construction including remodeling, estimating, framing,
roofing, exterior finishing, interior finishing, cabinets, countertops and trim work. By applying math, science,
communication and team building skills, students construct real-life application projects in the spacious lab
while also learning to operate a wide range of hand, power and air tools. Because the class focuses on
residential construction, students learn to build from floor to roof, which helps prepare them for a career in
the construction industry. The construction process introduces them to basic electrical, plumbing and masonry
work. In Level II, students have the opportunity to complete a paid internship with contractors on actual job
sites. Completers of this program have entered apprenticeships, enrolled in two- and four-year colleges and
worked for a contractor or builder as a carpenter. Many have even started their own construction business!
College credits available. For more information, see the Compact Career Catalog 2019-20.
