Engineering & Energy

Our Engineering & Energy program sits at the intersection of traditional engineering excellence and the rapidly evolving green energy sector. Students focus on the core principles of mechanical and electrical engineering while mastering the sustainable technologies that will define our global energy landscape.

Students transition from theoretical physics to practical application by engaging with the tools and professional networks driving the energy revolution.

SkillsUSA: Students are encouraged to join this premier CTSO to compete in technical events such as Renewable Energy Pathways, Principles of Engineering, and Applied Engineering.

State Leadership & Skills Conferences: These multi-day events allow students to showcase their engineering portfolios, attend workshops with energy sector professionals, and connect with Nevada’s leading utility providers and engineering firms.

As explained on the SkillsUSA website:
