Architectural Design & Engineering Academy COSUMNES OAKS HIGH SCHOOL

The Architectural Design and Engineering (ADE) Academy at Cosumnes Oaks High School prepares students for the fields related to engineering and architecture that are in high demand. Students have ample opportunities to explore the complex worlds of engineering, , architecture and green energy. Students gain hands-on project-based learning experiences that require creativity, critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. The ADE Academy’s most unique feature is its rHOUSE project, a LEED for Homes Platinum residential house/classroom, where students work on projects related to green energy systems. ADE offers the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) Core Curriculum and plans to offer an OSHA 10-hour General Industry certification. Outside of the ADE courses, students engage in core academic courses that are linked with academy projects and goals, making the work completed in both the ADE and core academic courses more authentic.
