  1. Space Technology and Robotic Systems Engineering and Manufacturing Applied to Renewable Energy Technologies Lompoc High School STaRS Academy Tuesday, Oct 14, 2014

  2. Space, Technology and Robotic Systems The Academy Modelwww.cde.ca.gov/ci/gs/hs/cpagen.asp • Career focus • Teachers volunteer • Students volunteer (at least 50% must be “at-risk”) • Business/Community partners • Mentors • Internships • Funding--$900 per student with 80% attendance and 90% credit completion (up to $81,000)

  3. Space, Technology and Robotic Systems Vandenberg AFB • Western Range (most of the Pacific Ocean) • Longest runway west of the Mississippi (2nd longest in the country) • All polar orbitting satellites from the U.S. (and many from other countries) are launched from VAFB

  4. Space, Technology and Robotic Systems The Focus of the Program pre-engineering, applied to aerospace, manufacturing and energy sectors.

  5. Space, Technology and Robotic Systems The Goal • prepare students with technical skills to be successful upon entering college or the workforce, by … • integrating Math, Science, Language Arts, and Technology, and … • applying the content learned in these areas to satellites, design, robotics, communications, manufacturing, and energy production.
