| Project
Lead the Way is a national program forming partnerships among Public schools,
Higher education Institutions and the Private Sector to increase the quantity and quality of engineers and engineering technologists graduating from our education systems. First developed in the '80's, PLTW is now offered in over 45 states and the District of Columbia. |
| PLTW
has developed a four year sequence of courses, which, when combined with
college prep math and science courses in high school, introduces students to the scope, rigor and discipline of engineering and engineering technology prior to entering college |
| Benefits for students |
| The
Academy of Engineering courses are affiliated with Project Lead the Way.
Further information regarding Project Lead the Way can be obtained from their website. Project Lead the Way allows students the opportunity to gain college credit if they maintain an 85% average in the course, pass the final exam and register for the credit. |
