Description

This course is the application/addition of the student's knowledge base, and the further development of life and workforce skills to include cognitive reasoning, critical thinking, problem-solving, design and development, testing and analysis, documentation, teamwork, collaboration, and leadership.

Students are required to design and build three small-scale rockets, each with increasingly more difficult criteria. This is a capstone project for seniors.
