1. How is a career in engineering researched?

Assignment #11: Introduction to Engineering and Career Research: Research Paper

Student in Engineering CAD will develop the ability to:
-- Research a career in an engineering field.

All students will:
--Research a career in an engineering field.

Effort/attitude/participation = 50% of grade
Assessed daily, recorded as a weekly grade
Assigned Drawing Projects = 50% of grade
Assessed for quality of workmanship and meeting scheduled deadlines
Print a rough draft of the research paper of a career.
Print a completed research paper of a career.

Guidelines for the research paper.

Students will select a career to research in an area of engineering, based upon his/her personal interests. Teacher must approve of the topic before the paper is started.
