BMG 2019 Grammarian Issue 2

6 SYSTEMS ENGINEERING STUDENTS SHINE AT BMG The Technology Department at Bacchus Marsh Grammar has expanded the range of course offerings over the last few years. The subjects leading towards a Systems Engineering stream now include Coding, and Design Technology at Year 7 and 8, and Mechatronics, 3D Printing Technology and Flight Technology at Years 9 and 10. VCE Systems Engineering commenced in 2015 with Units 1 and 2, and the first year of Units 3 and 4 began in 2016. In 2018, we were proud to have the achievements of two of our Unit 3/ 4 students recognised at a state-wide level. Stuart Campbell achieved a perfect score of 50 for his Unit 3/ 4 studies and was awarded a Premier’s VCE Award which was presented at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre in June. Nazeeha Moosajee was one of eight students from across the state to have her Unit 3/ 4 Systems Engineering project included in the Top Designs exhibition held at the Melbourne Museum. This is an outstanding achievement for both students, and we congratulate both students on their hard work and dedication. In acknowledging the work of these students, we gave them the opportunity to reflect on their studies and the skills they had developed through VCE Systems Engineering. Mr Rohan Bryan
