In 2006, a group of local industry professionals founded ACE’s Portland chapter. Their goal was to introduce high school students to the industry’s wide range of vital and rewarding career opportunities. Today, 28 professional firms have provided mentors for students from 43 different high schools within seventeen different districts, and four private schools. They have also awarded $96,000 in scholarships!
Students, participating in our program, must have at least a 2.0 grade point average, good attendance, teacher recommendations and two full years of math. They must also complete an interview.
During the course of the program, students engage in 12 mentoring sessions to develop one cooperative project, a task that gives them a taste of the teamwork required to create a built environment. The project culminates in presentations to families and friends. In addition, students are eligible for ACE scholarships, which they can apply toward higher education in a building-related field.
For 2011-12, ACE groups will work on one of four different retail-oriented projects clustered on one block directly south of the OMSI MAX station that will be part of the Portland-Milwaukie light rail extension. One group from each day will create a design for a bike retail shop, a coffee shop & roaster, a yoga studio, or a visitor center. Students will produce schematic-level graphics to describe the site plan, building plans & elevations, engineering systems, and estimates of construction cost & schedule. After a total of 11 working sessions, the groups will present their designs to each other and guests.
