Our science classes are hands-on. We strive to inspire students and to encourage them to question assumptions about the world around them. Our aim is to help students cultivate a passion for science.

Research & Design
This full-day interdisciplinary program teaches students the
principles of research, design, prototyping, and analysis through the topics of
projectile motion, structural support systems, power generation, and acoustic
systems. Students will be taught the concepts from grade 11 Physics, grade 11
Math, and grade 11 Tech Design, and grade 11 Computer Science and apply them in
a variety of individual and team projects that tackle both real-world and
simulated problems.
Students interested in fields such as architecture, biomechanics,
engineering, computer programming, aerospace, aviation, acoustics, robotics,
structure, or have a general interest in how and why things work are encouraged
to consider applying for this program.
Course Codes: SPH3U, MCR3U, TDJ3M, ICS3U
The course includes several full-class field trips, including one
overnight trip. The costs for all the field trips, as well as a class t-shirt
and some supplemental building materials is collected in a single amount of
$600 from each student. This can be paid all at once or over three payments
that begin shortly before the semester and end near the middle.
