STE(A)M I
Recommended Prerequisite(s): None
Grade(s): 9-12
Two semesters
Credits: 10
STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) is a
course that is a self-paced with the expectation that students will master
and integrate skills such as electrical control, pneumatics, machine tools,
robotics, and graphic design, to complete end of semester projects as a
team. This course is project-based and hands-on where students will learn
by applying the skills and concepts through a virtual or actual laboratory
setting. Students do not need any background knowledge in any of the
systems before taking this course.
This course satisfies UC/CSU “G”college preparatory requirement.
Pathway II:
Engineering Technology II
STE(A)M II
Prerequisite(s): Engineering Technology I
Grade(s): 10-12
Two semesters
Credits: 10
This course is the second year of the above- mentioned course and has a
focus on Manufacturing and Technology Design. This course is articulated
with Riverside Community College (RCC) and satisfies UC/CSU “D” lab
science requirement.
Pathway III:
Engineering Technology III
STE(A)M III
Prerequisite(s): Engineering Technology II
Grade(s): 10-12
Two semesters
Credits: 10
Students should be prepared to work independently and in strategic teams to
accomplish a variety of capstone projects, some of which may be semester or
year-long in nature.
