Expectations Be sitting quietly in your assigned seat when the tardy bell rings. This semester you will need a folder to keep up with work for this class. It will be your responsibility to bring it to class everyday. (Any handouts or work in progress should be kept in the folder) All Electronics (headphones, cell phones, etc.) must be out of sight. Students will listen to the day’s instructions without interrupting. Students will wait to be dismissed to lab by a slide. Students will go quietly to their work stations and login Students will go to restrooms, if necessary, after logging in. Students will return to the step seating area and sit quietly when finished with the day’s assignment or when told to clean up. If your name is written on the board that is a warning. A check by your name is also a warning. A second check will result in your Parent’s being called. A 4 th check will be an office referral.

Foundations of Engineering and Technology Careers in Engineering

Standards STEM-FET-1 Demonstrate employability skills required by business and industry. STEM-FET-2 Develop an understanding of engineering and technology and describe the principal fields of engineering specializations (ex. aeronautical, automotive, chemical, civil, industrial, mechanical, computer software, electrical, and biomedical) and identify associated career tracks.

Engineering… The branch of science and technology concerned with design, building, and use of engines, machines, and structures. “Science is about knowing; engineering is about doing.” -Henry Petroski

Disciplines of Engineering

Aeronautical The flight of all kinds of vehicles operating under different speeds and altitudes Agricultural All systems and sciences for the production and processing of agricultural processes Automotive Design, build, maintain and operate self-propelled vehicles from use on land or sea, in air or space Chemical The development of processes, and the design and operation of plants in which materials undergo chemical changes during their manufacture Civil All principalities of communication, transportation, construction, and manufacturing

Mechanical Machines, production of power and manufacturing methods Computer Software Trained for the specification, design, development and maintenance of software systems and electronic devices Electrical Applications of electricity ranging from electric light, power systems to electronic appliances including computer engineers Biomedical Combine the discipline of mechanical engineering with human anatomy and physiology Nuclear Use and management of nuclear technology Industrial The production of manufacturing systems
