Project Lead the Way

Are you curious about engineering, computer science, or biomedical science careers? Check out Project Lead the Way (PLTW). Some Wisconsin high schools offer PLTW coursework. UW System campuses evaluate the coursework ensuring it helps students meet admission requirements.

Your high school must contact the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) to request “equivalent to science” (ES) high school credit.

View a current list of courses DPI has approved as ES, and the schools that offer them.
