ADVANCED SCIENCE TRACK The Advanced Science track is designed to prepare motivated students for success as science majors at highly regarded colleges and universities. The College Board and the University of California have recognized courses in the program as "exemplary and innovative." Students learn, design, and carry out experiments in our fully equipped laboratory, which houses a PCR themorcycler, gel electrophoresis, and other equipment usually found only in university labs. Students also conduct independent research and have the opportunity to present their work at the annual IEEE Measurement Science Conference. Past research projects conducted include Stroke and Parkinson's Research at the University of Southern California and Methionine Cancer Research at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). STUDENTS IN THIS PROGRAM HAVE THE FOLLOWING COURSE OFFERINGS: • AP Chemistry or Chemistry (H) • IB Physics • Biomedical Ethics • Research Theory and Experimental Design • AP Psychology • AP Calculus • Pre-Calculus or Calculus • Organic Chemistry (H) • AP Environmental Science A D V A N C E D P R O G R A M S ADVANCED ENGINEERING TRACK For those students interested in the fields of engineering and physical sciences, Fairmont's Engineering track offers a hands-on, project-based curriculum supplemented by internships (including Boeing), field trips, and guest speakers to give students an appreciation and a comprehensive understanding of engineering. Through our partnerships with California State University, Fullerton and the University of Arizona, students can take up to seven university courses in math and engineering, earning up to 25 semester units on university transcripts by completing the Engineering curriculum. In the past, field trips for this program have included the Kennedy Space Center, NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab, Disney's Engineering Program, and the Engineering labs at CalTech, UCLA and CSUF. STUDENTS IN THIS PROGRAM HAVE THE FOLLOWING COURSE OFFERINGS: • Introduction to Engineering • Engineering I: University of Arizona Engineering Physics 102 • Engineering II: Statics • Professional Engineering Internship • Engineering Research Project • AP Physics C (Mechanics) • AP Physics C (E and M) • AP Calculus • Multivariable Calculus • Differential Equations and Linear Algebra A D V A N C E D S C I E N C E A N D E N G I N E E R I N G P R O G R A M ( A S E P ) 14 Fairmont Private Schools International Student Brochure
