CASEE Implementation Network: Project Lead The Way (PLTW)

Challenges in Engineering Education:

  • By 2005, our aim is that 100% of PLTW students will meet college entrance requirements for engineering and engineering technology; of those students at least 90% will successfully complete their first year of further study and at least 75% will graduate from two- or four-year engineering and engineering technology programs.
  • By 2006, our aim is that we increase by 20% the number of graduates from high schools in PLTW who are accepted in engineering and engineering technology programs.
  • By 2006, our aim is the enrollment of females in PLTW courses will be 10 percentage points higher than the current female national enrollment in engineering and engineering technology programs.
  • By 2005, our aim is that the racial and ethnic minority student population in schools with PLTW courses will be collectively proportionate to the overall state population.
