ACADEMY OF ENGINEERING (AOE)
Academy of Engineering students are required to complete four engineering courses and a compensated internship to receive recognition as a National Academy Foundation (NAF) graduate. Students receive an honor cord to be worn at graduation along with a certificate of program completion in addition to their diploma. The Academy of Engineering allows for you network with members of the community, gain you job experience, as well as insight into specific careers. Courses offered through the Mallard Creek Academy of Engineering program include Introduction to Engineering (IED), Principles of Engineering (POE), Civil Engineering and Architecture (CEA), and Digital Electronics (DE).
MAVBOTS ROBOTICS TEAM
A competition-based organization in which teams of students are tasked to design, build and code a robot that will play against other teams in a game-based engineering challenge. Using STEM concepts, students will be able to better lifelong skills including teamwork, leadership, communication, and more. As a member of the MAVBOTS Robotics Team, students will be exposed to the different faces of robotics from coding, designing, and scouting, enabling their desire to pursue a career in STEM to be sparked while providing a fun atmosphere for student learn.
TECHNOLOGICAL STUDENTS ASSOCIATION (TSA)
Open to students enrolled in or who have completed technology education courses TSA members learn through exciting competitive events, leadership opportunities and much more. The diversity of activities makes TSA a positive experience for every student. From engineers to business managers, our alumni credit TSA with a positive influence on their lives.
Students can work individually or as a team in such areas as agriculture and biotechnology, website design, dragster design, flight challenge, film technology, CAD with 3D modeling, desktop publishing, extemporaneous speaking, radio controlled transportation, or scientific visualization.

TEAMS (Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics and Science)
TEAMS (Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics and Science) is a one-day competition for students in middle and high school that allows them to apply their knowledge of skills in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) to issues facing our global society. Focused on an annual theme, original academic and innovative concepts are developed for the competition based on the National Academy of Engineering’s Grand Challenges. Engaging in the challenges requires critical job-readiness skills such as teamwork, analytical thinking, and multi-dimensional problem solving.
