Santa Rosa County Career Pathways / Santa Rosa Center for Innovation

Central Summer AI & Engineering Camp is in full swing!

Our talented students are designing and building their own robotic cars while learning how to code the programs that control them. Through creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on engineering, they are bringing their ideas to life one line of code at a time.

The excitement will culminate in an obstacle course race where students will test their robotic car designs, troubleshoot challenges, and see whose creation can successfully navigate the course!

We're proud of the innovation, teamwork, and perseverance these future engineers are demonstrating every day. Stay tuned for race day results!

🧠 Learning has more meaning when students can see it in action! 🧠

Career and Technical Education (CTE) connects classroom knowledge with real-world application, helping students understand how academic concepts are used in careers and everyday life. Whether it's applying math in engineering, science in healthcare, or communication skills in business and marketing, CTE brings learning to life through hands-on experiences.

By combining rigorous academics with technical training, CTE helps students build skills, solve real problems, and see the value of what they're learning every day.

When students understand the "why" behind learning, engagement and success follow. 🚀📚

Today’s tool: CAD Software (Computer-Aided Design)

CAD software allows engineers, architects, and designers to create detailed digital models, blueprints, and prototypes before projects are ever built. From buildings and bridges to machines and product designs, CAD technology plays a major role in turning ideas into reality.

Students in Engineering, Drafting, and Design pathways learn how to use CAD software to develop technical drawings, solve design challenges, and create innovative solutions for real-world projects.

Hands-on experience with industry technology helps prepare students for future careers in engineering, architecture, manufacturing, and design.
