ENGINEERING ACADEMYThe mission of the Engineering
Academy is to improve science, technology, engineering, and math career preparedness in our region.
Students learn about the engineering career pathway to prepare them for college.
High School Students from Apollo, Daviess County, Owensboro, Owensboro Catholic and Mclean County participate in real-world, hands-on activities.
