[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In Region 1 both BCC and Northwood show up as having engineering. Is that a typo?[/quote]

No. BCC has PLTW and I think anyone can do it. Do that would be the “interest based” one, maybe fleshed out a little more. Northwood would have a criteria based one like Wheaton’s current magnet. [/quote]

Are you sure about that? I don't recall seeing the engineering program listed at Northwood before. And Wheaton is the only school that has a criteria based engineering program.[/quote]

I’m sure the BCC one is interest based. I don’t know about the new Northwood one. [/quote]
OP here 
I recall that in the previous iteration of the regional model there was no engineering program in region 1. I think they initially planned it for Blair. I doubt they are creating two engineering programs in Region 1 so the question is are they making BCC's existing local program regional or are they adding a new engineering program to Northwood. I hope it is the latter. Both Whitman and BCC have local engineering programs already. Neither Einstein, Northwood nor Blair have an engineering program. Why make them travel to BCC for this? [/quote]

They are using what is there and Einstein and Northwood don’t have advanced math or science and at best two engineering classes.  [/quote]
