A black and white logo that reads LCTC STEM Program

The LCTC STEM Academy began in 2009. The academy utilizes CODE.org and the Alabama State Department of Education engineering curriculum for high school students. Students can choose from a variety of Engineering Academy courses that focus on teaching problem-solving and applying the engineering design process.

The goal of the LCTC STEM Academy is to prepare students for the increasing technological demands of the global environment. Students enrolled in the program will utilize math, science, technical writing, and computer skills as they explore different areas of engineering. This program serves as a platform for students who wish to pursue an engineering or technical degree after high school.

TSA, the program’s career and technical student organization, enhances classroom instruction while helping students develop leadership abilities, expand workplace-readiness skills, and broaden opportunities for personal and professional growth.
