Join us on Thursday, November 14 from
5-7 pm for our annual
Industrial Technology Open House to see us in action at OEHS’s Vocational Annex!
Drafting
Our Automotive Technology program is based on hands-on live work in a shop
environment. We have a 5 bay service shop, as well as an automotive classroom with an
engine lab. This provides students with real-world applications, while teaching them
critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Automotive Technology Electives:
Introduction to Automotive Technology This is a pre-requisite for all other automotive classes. Students will learn basic
automotive maintenance, safety, shop operations, tools, and measurement.
Shop work includes:
Vehicle Safety Inspections
Basic Maintenance
Fluid Changes
Tire Work
Automotive Engine Service Students in this class learn theory and operation of modern engines, as well as how to
diagnose engine problems on cars. Students will rebuild a complete engine in class and
work on engines in cars.
Automotive Electrical Diagnostic Systems Students in this class learn basic electricity, wiring diagrams, vehicle electrical systems,
as well as work with modern engine and vehicle computer control systems using
current industry-standard scan tools & computers.
This class will give students the same diagnostic and electrical skills that current
technicians have and are using in the field today!
Automotive Service Operations This is a dual-credit class, from which students who receive a B or better overall course
grade can earn college credit through Waubonsee Community College!
Students in this class work on tires, brakes, steering systems, suspension, vehicle
maintenance, and basic service. This class is run like a full service shop, providing
students with the mechanical skills necessary to work
Introduction to Technical & Computer Aided Drafting
Students in this class learn skills in both technical board drafting as well as computer
aided drafting. Students create mechanical multiview drawings used in industry,
developing skills with the tools and techniques required for board drafting and the most
current versions of AutoCAD & Inventor!
Woodworking & Cabinetmaking
Woodworking & Cabinetmaking Electives:
Woodworking I Students in this class learn the operations of many woodworking machines including the
jointer, table saw, band saw, and miter saw, in addition to handheld tools such as drills and
routers. Students practice their tool & machinery skills, as well as their finishing
techniques, while building projects such as tables, mirror frames, & small cabinets.
Millwork & Cabinetry II Students in this class create woodworking projects they can use in their own home, such as
desks, entertainment centers, and other cabinets including raised panel doors and drawers.
Advanced Millwork & Cabinetry Students in this class independently design their own cabinetry projects, including
customized furniture with specialty hardware, glass doors, or lighting.

Honors Engineering
Honors Engineering Electives:
Honors Introduction to Engineering Design This first course in the PLTW Honors Engineering curriculum provides a foundation and
is a pre-requisite for all advanced engineer ing courses.
Students in this class learn skills necessary for innovation and documentation following
the engineering design process. This course includes the basics of measuring &
geometric calculations, drawing & dimensioning, 3-dimensional CAD modeling using
the newest version of Inventor, prototyping, and advertising & marketing. Students in
this class develop their engineering skills through many hands-on activities and projects
while discovering unique solutions to real-world problems!
IED projects & activities typically include: * Engineering Design Challenges: Golf Ball Challenge,
Pom Pom Launcher, & Pringles Packaging Challenge
* Coffee Cup Design Project
* Automata Project
* Reverse Engineering Legos Project
Advanced Engineering Electives Include...
Honors Principles of Engineering
Honors Digital Electronics
Honors Civil Engineering & Architecture
Honors Engineering Design & Development
While receiving honors grade weighting, each engineering course also offers
the possibility for college credit!
