All students are expected to either be state-approved Career and Technology Education program completers or meet University System of Maryland entrance requirements, or both, upon graduating from high school. Careful and informed course planning is necessary to accomplish this goal: 1. Review credits you have earned to determine whether you are meeting graduation requirements. 2. Complete registration forms accurately. 3. Some courses have a limited enrollment based on capacities of the physi...

It is very difficult to make satisfactory adjustments at the last moment. Course selections should be considered final. Requests for schedule changes will be honored only under extenuating circumstances. Only in unusual circumstances will schedule changes be made after the fourth week in either semester. Requests for schedule changes will be considered for the following reasons only: I. Course prerequisites not met; II. Seniors needing specific courses to meet Maryland graduation requirements...

rerequisites: Fundamentals of Aerospace and Aerospace Technology This project-based learning course is for students who have successfully completed Courses 1 and 2. Students will learn about systems such as flight control, remote-control vehicles and the virtual world. Students will learn to fly using flight simulators. They will work collaboratively to propose a shift from a VOR navigation system to a GPS system and determine the cost savings. In addition, students will develop rotor blades ...

In the Aircraft Systems and Performance course, students will take an in-depth look at the systems that make manned and unmanned aircraft work. Beginning with aircraft propulsion, students will learn about the different types of engines that produce thrust to propel an aircraft or UAS. They will go on to explore other key aircraft systems, including fuel, electrical, landing gear, and environmental. In order to fly an aircraft safely, students must also learn about the flight instruments asso...

Students in this capstone course will focus on outer space and underwater applications. During the six projects, they will work collaboratively to design, build and test a laser communication system; develop a plan for space survivability in hostile environments; and utilize software to create a three-dimensional model of a satellite orbit and a team remote vehicle for underwater exploration. Depending on articulation agreements or state policy, students who successfully complete the course m...

History of Aviation and Development of Flight is an introductory course and customized textbook that focuses on the history of aviation and flight. It introduces students to how airplanes fly, how weather conditions affect on flight, the human body and flight, and flight navigation. The course is designed to complement materials taught in math, physics, and other science-related courses and is aligned with the National Science Education Standards, the Math Standards and Expectations, and Inte...

Aviation Management is a holistic view of management requirements and techniques applicable to the aviation industry; problems, current issues and future trends related to aviation operations. The course includes management and organizational styles as applied to the industry, changes in the National Airspace System, managerial problems unique to the industry, and proposed acquisition of equipment under NEXGEN innovations.

The Technology Aviation Research Practicum is a one year course designed to assist aviation technology majors in the AEAT program to complete a research or design and development senior project from a specific internship experience. Requirements include STEM Fair Participation, writing of a 5-chapter thesis-type paper, and participation in the AEAT Research Practicum(RP) Symposium. Steps of the ATRP process include topic selection, research design, implementation of research, statistical data...

This course is designed to allow students time within the school day to conduct out-of-school internship under the guidance of an engineer, scientist or computer scientist in aviation technology. The internship must be at a research facility or approved work site. Students are at the research site 4 days a week and a minimum of 2 3⁄4 hours each day. One day each week, the student is on campus the entire day, assigned to the RP teacher and/or Coordinator for at least one class period. It is th...

This course is foundational for both manned and unmanned aviation, and will prepare students to take either of two Federal Aviation Administration tests: the Private Pilot Knowledge Test or the Part 107 Remote Pilot Knowledge Test. Topics include: pre-flight procedures, airspace, radio communications, aviation phraseology, regulations, airport operations, aviation safety, weather, cockpit management, and emergency procedures.
