OVERVIEW/DESCRIPTION Almost every major challenge facing our world is turning to computing for a solution, from conquering disease to protecting the environment. Our mission is to provide students with opportunities in and out of the classroom to spur their interest in computing science, engineering, and architectural design. Do you enjoy finding better ways to get things done using computers? Do you want to help build or distribute the next generation of video games, mobile phones, or media players? Do you love to solve puzzles? The future will be powered by technology and computing professionals. Get a head start by being part of the Computing Science and Engineering Academy! ENRICHMENT OPPORTUNITIES
ENGINEERING AND GEOSCIENCES ACADEMY The Westside Engineering and Geosciences Academy offers a unique chance for students to gain perspective and insight into the engineering field. Students in this academy are engaged in rigorous academics and hands on projects. Teamwork and leadership skills are emphasized throughout the program, and organization is stressed from the beginning as essential for success. Problem based learning and critical thinking skills are fostered, as they are essential to the engineering profession. In addition, through a partnership with the Independent Petroleum Association of America, we are able to offer students many opportunities to explore engineering in the community. Admission is currently open only for students who will be freshman in the 2010-2011 school year. The deadline to submit applications is January 15, 2010. Notification will be sent March 26, 2010.
